Over 2 week since my last bet

Well done and it just goes to show LIFE is SO much BETTER WITHOUT gambling , seems like ur in a great frame of mind as well! I've a lot of work to do but I've no plans whatsoever in going back to gambling after the last month which was sheer emotional and financial hell , I now realise I can't bet at all and concentrating on paying back money which I've blown and accepting I won't win it back and I work too ***** hard to throw it away to a spin of the reel ! One thing we should all do is list all the positives and negatives of gambling ul soon see it's not for us , we're compulsive , we cannot win as we cannot stop and total absistance is our future , take care , Gavin

Thanks Gavin it's not been easy but with my wife & this site it's been a great help .. I'm feeling better & better every day without gambling there is no way I'm going back to feeling how I use to . It's a great feeling not panicking when the post man comes or the phone rings I was nearly at rock bottom but not no more I can now c a future without gambling .. So ******* can go & f.. Himself as he's not getting another penny off me !! Hope u have a great day & a good future without gambling ..

Yeah am the same phone ringing sent me into panic mode lol madness isn't it , only y day I got a call from a casino when was out in a park with my wife and kids , I pretended it was PVC sales man and said no we've already got that and hung up , madness ! It was a gambling company which I recently lost big on , I had already self excluded online but they were phoning me to offer me a 20 pound bonus which was v kind of them considering I blew over 600 quid on their site the night before ! They make me sick arghh they will not win

Yep I use to sleep downstairs for a while when I knew a unpaid bill was coming and I even put the phone on silent when my wife woke up that's how bad it got they should b some sort of law against these gambling sites .. Good look I'm not going back to that life ..

That is brilliant news. Well done. So pleased to hear. I've still not gambled. Think I'm around two weeks now. Being ill for most of that has helped!!. I am as determined as you that I will not go back.it's such a good feeling to know that I have money in my account that is still in my account. Not blown at the first opportunity. Stay strong I'm with you all the way x

Thanks lizt hope u r feeling better .. Yep feeling great sleeping a lot better not feeling sick all the time not having all the worry building up in my head there's no way I'm going back to gambling after what it has put me through .. Counselling is going great I actually look forward going to them I can pour my heart out to her she is brilliant and so understanding .. I would recommend it to anyone .. All the people around me r so supportive so that helps a lot I even had 9hrs sleep the other night not had that much in over 2yrs so it must b working only use to have 3 to 4hrs then waking up so I can go to the bookies for a few hrs b4 wife got up as we both work nights .. Good luck to u all ..

Just over 3 weeks since my last bet it's not easy cos every where it look or go it's all about gambling I didn't realise how much it is out there until u try & stop .. Keeping strong & money in the bank all debts paid now I can c a future hope u r well & keeping strong lizt how's the last few weeks been for u !! Good luck xx
