message to time_to_stop

Hi Mark,

Just caught this as I was about to get some kip (I have a rather insomnia filled life...Not helped by an excessive 'eating Jaffa Cakes at innapropriate times of day' habit!!).

Thanks alot for the compliment in finding something of use in my ramblings, that's genuinely the best thing I could've ever hoped for. I have to stress that when giving advice or opinion I'm not just looking to offer assistance to everyone else but also taking a big chunk of positive self-affirmation for myself, so it isn't entirely altruistic and I'm really grateful that everyone here (thus far) has allowed me the opportunity to do so. It's a big help to me and my recovery.

I do have a diary in the Recovery Diary section but it is rather scant. There's a post from 6 years ago that kind of outlines how things got to where they were when my problem hit 'rock bottom' and a new post from over the last few days that says a little about where I am now but there is obviously a heck of a big gap and loads I could fill in.

That gap was all gambling free but thinking about it, that didn't 'just happen' there were things I did to make that happen and plenty of moments of temptation so filling in some of that gap might be a really good idea, and if it's useful to anyone else I have no problem sharing anything at all.

I'll get on to this over the weekend (it's great to have the distraction).

Righto, for now though, it's bedtime *puts the Jaffa Cakes down*

Thanks again for the interest!
