The last couple of days, since I made the decision to seek help for my addiction,  have been a bit of a blur but today I properly started my journey on the road to recovery.

Having put in place GAMSTOP blocks and installing GAMBAN on to my devices yesterday, today I went through the process of putting all my finances into my wife's control and attended my first GA meeting.

I didn't know what to expect but it was reassuring to see that there are others just like me that I could talk to as an equal rather than being judged for what I've done. I'm feeling extremely positive about overcoming this and staying on the right path.

@g4pv3yauqm good days work mate 👍🏼 

It's a great feeling to pull it all together and start a new chapter.

Stay with your program and keep us updated.  It can be up and down.  One minute feeling as though you can take on the world and others when your thoughts turn back to gambling.

Keep us updated

Well done for getting on to the road to recovery and getting to ga meetings too.

Sounds like a sigh of relief with what you have wrote. 

Keep coming back to this site and GA the more support the better so please keep it up you got this 💪

Just for today I will not gamble, and enjoy peri peri mayonnaise on chicken slices in a sandwich. Lush!
