Hi Guys,
just updating the forum and diary on my 1st week GF. It has been hard, I still think about gambling all of the time. But I do also feel free and can only hope that this feeling goes with time. One thing I have noticed though is just how many adverts on the TV relate to gambling. This was a huge trigger for me and i am glad I have the blocks in place to not fall for it again. I just think these adverts are so damaging. I still get them pop up on my phone too and click not interested but different ones just come up so I give up. Is there anything else I can do about adverts does anyone know?
thank you Â
Hi lost it all,
Well done on your first week GF!
It's an amazing feeling knowing you've gone your first week, I too feel the same. You should be proud.Â
I also hate to see these gambling adverts, it always brings me down when I see these as some of the adverts are sites i used to go on. Wish there was a way this could be blocked and stopped some how. I've noticed that since I got gamstop, I havent really seen many ads pop up about gambling. Not sure if its stopped me receiving adsÂ
Again, a massive well done and good luck for your second weekÂ

Kay ?
Hi yes it's gamstop. I get very rare pop up advert now which is good I'm feeling really strong but still don't want it in my face all the time
