Good afternoon everyone,Â
Tomorrow marks my 100th day GF. At 40 years of age & 7 years of out of control gambling addiction, this is my best attempt so far of beating this.Â
What is the hardest thing to battle with is how did it get so bad? Why didn’t I just stop after I lost a few thousand? Why did it have to take me until I couldn’t borrow any more money to stop? For me I had to lose everything before having no option but to quit. 150k later of borrowing on the mortgage & massive loans I am at rock bottom.Â
What triggered me to do this? From being a normal guy that saved & had money in the bank to something triggering me to be a gambling addict. I really am disappointed in myself & how my life has been ruined. My mortgage could be paid off, I could have been living a comfortable life & enjoying normal things that people do & spending money creating memories rather than blowing thousands of pounds.Â
However 100 days in tomorrow, I can’t change the past can I so I need to look to the future.Â
That's amazing.. well done ? ? .I'm just starting out on mine.Â
Well done on achieving 100 days gambling free!! Its a monumental milestone. Im on 103 days and counting and feel brilliant. Im 38 and gambled in a reckless manner for around 6 and bit years up until March of this year.Â
Â
I equally blew thousands and racked up debts borrowing on credit cards. Madness!! As soon as money came in, it went.Â
Â
Now, being gamble free Im paying back debts and booking nice things like holidays. Feel great.Â
Â
Keep strong friend!! All the bestÂ
@bmepfxugkq see you at 150 days my Friend.Â

Well done King, absolutely awesome. Maybe instead of torturing yourself with the past, concentrate and realize that every day you don`t gamble now and in the future is a victory and something to be positive about.
