We have not verified a statewide self-exclusion list for Mississippi, so the lock goes on your phone: delete the apps, block the sites, and use each operator's own self-exclusion. Then put a block on your phone so the apps and sites can't be reopened on a bad night, and talk to one person this week: a counselor who treats gambling, a Gamblers Anonymous meeting, or someone in recovery.
