Hi everyone,

I stopped coming on here for a while as believe it or not i stop with all the c**P that this addiction gives you. Last year I was quite depressed and I relapsed. Over the course of the year I had 8400 in debt. My partner doesnt know and I don't really want to say as I know they will leave me if I do. I have howvere paid 400 off of the debt so I am now 8000 I reckon if I am really strict I should pay off 5000 of it by December time and then I will pay off the rest a little slower. I am gutted I have done this as it is a big let down for me but I am planning on being debt free by my birthday so that by May next year I can start looking for a house with my partner with no debt. I actually have an excellent credit score just this is hovering over me. Do you reckon 8000 is a bad debt?

Onwards and upwards

Day 1 today

No its not a big debt but the fact remains is it still is enough debt so just be careful with it I'm on day two today after I've completely put blocks in place.

Thanks Christer,

I think if I stop today I will control it and as I am off work it was very easy for me to do this as I was bored. It was the slots but I am bigger and netter than this so I will follow you and when you are on day 100 I will be on my 99th day x How are you getting on? What has been your problems? x

My issues were there's always been another bookie available and I've never gambled my into debt but money I have lost is is enough to make me sick and annoyed with myself OK Ill watch how you get on

Day 2 Gamble free... 🙂 This will be the new me. I am happier today but my problem is I am always pleasing others and I reckon if I didn't do that I wouldn't have been in this mess. I can't wait as in 2 weeks I will have paid off more of my debt. By November I will have paid off hopefully 5000 of my debt thats my plan anyhow.

Hi Lonelygirl,

Great start and good luck for Friday. Make sure it is the first thing you pay off : ). It is day one for me today so the fact that you have gotten through the early stages is really inspiring. Well done, keep going : )
