Checking in
I'm back again. Tail between my legs. I made nearly 3 months gamble free but go complacent. I stopped visiting the forum and now I’m back to square one. My loss last night wasn't devastating it just felt more self-destructive than before. Like I almost wanted to lose. I went to the casino the other day and even though I walked out with 90 quid I got no real enjoyment from it. I couldn't even look at the wheel while it span. So I've failed the challenge but I'm not going to give up on myself. When I visit the forum regularly I don't gamble. I know the first month will be the hardest. Tomorrow will be my day one. I don't want to be a fool anymore.
Gary in for the week.
No major dramas and not much to report. Get to 3 years GF on Monday but am acutely aware that a few of the longstanding members of the my GA group have slipped recently. Nothing particulary destructive, but enough to keep me on my guard.
I also live very close to Aintree, so can't escape the Grand National meeting next week with all the local excitement. But will stay vigilant as no good will come from me even placing a small, "fun" bet.

Huge thanks as always to Deano & Oldham for the challenge updates.
Haven't been posting as much recently but still pop in most days to read and keep myself grounded.
Onwards & forwards we go!

Hi all newbie to this thread thus is just my 5th day gamble free, but felt like today has been a big milestone as it is the 1st day with money again. Having the urge to gamble permanently but I'm determined not to give in.
Checking in for the week. Onto day 14, the last week has been hard. Had an arguement with my girlfriend on Tuesday, was tempted all day to take a loan out and gamble, but didn't. Pay day came yesterday, and was good all day! But again a fight this morning with my girlfriend got me wanting to gamble again, but resisted, which I was impressed with as I had money in the bank.

Thanks boys xx
Saturday check-in's seem to come round so quickly. I'm proud to say I've reached day 101.
I've still got a long way to go until I'm happy and confident with myself and my addiction but as long as I keep on this road, things can only get better.
Onward and upward x
