Moving into day 7 GF. Read some old horror stories on here and put it into a bit of perspective for me . It could get a lot worse with losing family , house , etc and I’m determined more than ever to not let that happen . Cautionary tales are good but I have real sympathy for people who are affected by this disease . Me included ! Today purchase £20 worth of pizza for me and the kids . Didn’t resent spending the money , normal to most people but not compulsive gamblers ! At peace for the moment I have a plan in the morning not to gamble and that’s spending time with family . My brother in law asked me for football tips today , told him I wasn’t gambling anymore , did a 5 second look at teams and gave him a screen shot of sky football favourite teams didn’t want anything to do with it . Unsubscribed to more emails and then a recent casino that I joined sent me some kind of intro letter . Opened the envelope , saw who it was from and ripped it up before examining the contents . Also had a second letter from same company don’t know the content but it went in the bin as well!
Just read thi's pal . I wish I could give you the cure
You're doing well vulture . Hang in there
Thanks Jonnyboy this was the very start for me and I just re read it . I started a new diary from Day 10 on a different thread , a bit more content on that warts and all !
