This time it will stop

Still going mate - well done.....keep posting....it will keep up your motivation !!!!.....were all routing for you..

How are you doing Lulubobs1966? Let's do this together I'm on day 6 and court was today . Went ok this is the turning point - no more gambling for me I nearly lost my home I'm not prepared to lose my bf or for my kids to find out what a fool I have been . Feeling better already every time I think of gambling I come on here and air my thoughts . I'm not given them my hard earned money anymore and believe you me I do work hard . I don't want luxuries just to be able to live comfortably without worrying about paying my bills x

Thanks for your support all it really does help, and keep going your all doing brilliantly... Day 18 done today, still going and not really getting any cravings, walked past a bookies today and although i had no money or cards to gamble, there was a slight temptation along with a hatred feeling towards the place, ended up strolling straight past and not giving it a secong thought till now which is positive... New targets, new goals, new life

Day 20 done and dusted, goals are being achieved, next one set is 25 days, another weekend coming up, plans already made to keep busy... Feeling great and keeping the focus, hurdles ahead but im ready for them, keep going everybody the light at the end of the very dark tunnel only gets brighter as u walk towards it

3 weeks 21 days, hitting goals and finally winning, focus

Thanks both for your comments, complete agree the only way to win is not to gamble... 23 days completed today, payday coming up, staying focussed for the first big hurdles in my way... Will not give in to the demons, will be strong, will not let the last 23 days go to waste

Day 24 done, still going strong had a few urges and cravings but managing to ride them out and score them out of 10, cravings don't last long so trying to beat them, eventually they ease... Got to keep strong and focussed.!!!

Day 25 cleared and next goal completed... Feeling good, i have had moments of boredom, and therefore thought bout gambling but managed to keep busy, even played the computer which i never do just to take mind of things, i knew this would be tough with payday coming up, trying my best, next goal 30 days/1 month

Day 26 done, big test tomorrow and this weekend ss its payday, plans in place to keep busy and keep focussed, here comes the first big hurdle, i will beat this, i will finally win... Wish me luck !!!

Day 27 done, if i can get through tomorrow i will be 4 weeks gamble free, paid today, so i paid more than what was needed of my existing debts to leave me an amount to live on for the month the idea being have no spare cash to gamble, the self excludes have definately helped no end, its nice to be paid and not feel depressed on payday for once after blowing it all... Onwards and upwards

Well done Scott, it's a good feeling isn't it, stay strong and positive.
