well I am not new here have a previous profile but failed so many times I thought a fresh start might make me do this before I lose everything.
another wasted session in the bookies, found one I could go in and boom 800.00 down the drain.
have made a promise to myself now not to leave the house with more than 50.00 in my pocket and no cards.
only reason I need 50.00 is if I have to buy some materials for work, being self employed sometimes I need to.
feeling sick to the teeth ,played that fixed roulette cant believe I get sucked in with this, knowing as soon as the button is pressed its a lose.
so tm will be day one again for the god knows how many times.
I just hope I can do it,will try to post every day my progress.
thanks for reading

Hi Mark,
I feel your pain i done the same thing last night on online Black Jack! Feel sick to the stomach! i keep telling myself i can stop but it is so hard! Have you looked into the Gambling Clinic in Soho? i went and found it really helpful i have just contacted them about starting again.

hi sean thanks for reply will have a look at that thanks
well day one coming to an end and funny feeling of pride I had all day for some reason, don't know why.
hoping that each day I can be strong and keep my hard earned cash instead of throwing it away.
You can do it mate!
I have had the urge to do it all day and haven't.
The feeling of "i can turn it into a win easy" makes the urge even greater.
I really do need to come clean to the people who are close to me but finding it really difficult.
Hope all is well today 🙂
ok day 2
have decided to post early (lunch time) as I have very strong urges to go and do my b*****ks,i know the out come before I go in,i will win a little and then lose a shed load, leave with a empty wallet and about 500.00 in transaction. but today I will not give in to this.
I know what you are saying seany about the urges they can be very strong but keep thinking how you feel after a session,sick skint angry P***** of all these emotions
I have stopped for 10 days before and it felt great all those days I was not worried about money my wallet had nearly the same it in from 10 days ago, it just shows that all I spend on is gambling. but now I have set myself goals, firstly to fit new worktops in my flat then carpets etc.
each time I achieve this means I have not given in to gambling. if I had not gambled all the things around my flat could have been done 10 times over
well was too busy to post yesterday,
am now on day 5. have not had any urges to gamble as I have kept myself busy and now I am hoping I can keep this up
hope everyone is reaching there goals
just need to get through the weekend that's normally when I cant stop myself
hi, i am only on day one and already worrying bout day 2 , so i think you have done really well getting to day 5
Good luck m8,
I don't play those bookie machines but I know that feeling of losing lots of money (poker), I have recently decided to start a gamble free life and I wish you all the best.
