My new life

Doing well had a good day clearing stuff in the house. Tired now but feeling good. Going to box this feeling and sell it on ebay!!

Feelings of guilt are hitting me hard this morning. I'v been on other sites reading peoples stories. I read Justin larcombe's story which i could relate partly to it. This has stunned me to see how far people go to gamble. Feeling very tearful about all the years i gave wasted . I'm more determined than ever to beat this addiction. I will keep reading these stories because otherwise i will be living in a fantasay world thinking everything is ok but i am on a long road to recovery but i will get to the other end

Thanks been out most of the day had a lovely sunday lunch at my sisters so feeling better

3 weekends done now this hasnt happened in a long time. Payday on Friday so this will be the test i need

Hi Poblwc,

Well done on getting through those three weekends. Don't let complacency set in come payday.....

Stay strong

Keep strong today, and keep focused........one day at a time is enough.

All the best

Yes very true. These days are going really fast now. I hardly miss it at all now. I'm in a new routine thanks to gamcare. I come home from work and check out the stories snd diaries. This is my new best friend now not those bingo sites!

Well its been a month since i joined here. Wish I'd joined earlier but at leasr i've done it now. I did gamble after a week quite badly but its been over three weeks now so hopefully this is it. The only way for me is to block everything and take temptation away as my willpower is not strong. Will take a lot if time yo pay off debt but this time will be less if i dont gamble ever again. The freedom of speech on this site has made life bearable again. I thought i was going mad till i reAd stories from others on this site and i knew i wasnt alone.

Right plan of action: 1. Payday 20th 2. 4 weeks on 21st 3. 4th weekend done on 23rd 4. Month done on 24th GO GO GO

Hi,

Liking your plan there Poblwc. ;0)

Make sure you stay strong today first and foremost. Those other target dates will happen soon enough.....

Well done on getting through to today, it's a great feeling isn't it.

Keep strong

All the best.

Just spoken to netline. They are arranging counselling for me week by week for six weeks so looking forward to chatting with someone and moving forward.

That's good to hear.

Keep strong and enjoy your weekend
