Hi everyone. It's day 18 for me here. I have been paid last week and I havent even checked my balance, I just know there is a little bit mroe money than last time!! Anyway, no txts from the bank and that only means that I am ok for now.
My biggest problem is that when I know that there is £200 there, I gamble it away! I then go to £400 trying to get that other £200 back. Thats the biggest problem!!!
I am staying strong and hoping to get back to my best which is over 100 days. One day at a time eh!
Checking in safely, my thoughts are with you Daz71, all the best x
Hey Daz, keep going mate, you will come out the other side. Stay positive and gamble free.

All the best to everyone!!!

Day 217 checking in
Checking in day 238
Checking in day 271...funding it a little testing at the moment, my will power is being pushed as I have people gambling around me even though they know it's an issue for me. Well, I suppose it's all part of the test?
Hi all,
Checking in. Still gf. I had some thoughts earlier about putting a football bet on. I would have won £600 had I put it on but I'm so glad I didn't. If I had won I would have spent the whole of next week gambling and probably got another grand in debt on top of that. Then I would have been back on here again next week in more debt! I'm starting to learn but realise it takes time. All the best and stay strong.
