Checking in 107 days gf.

All blocks still in place. Tried to watch the tv programme cleaning up but far too thought provoking.

No desire to gamble. Taking each day as it comes.

Checking in day 182. Tuesday will be my 6 month anniversary. Feels good to have not spent a single penny on gambling in nearly half a year. Hopefully I can get to 1 year gf after 20 years of trying to quit.

Hi all, in a nut shell, been gambling for 16 years, its mainly a roulette addiction, i can walk from anything else quite easily, love a footy bet using a quid max, but cant *** throwing note after note in them fobts, and casinos.. now i have gamstop in place since april and casino blocks... i have excuded from many shops in around my area (aleast 200) keep finding the odd one i havent added and sneaking in when my gamble side of my brain is on the prowl, doesnt help i passed my driving test recently and now go further afield if i hadnt and was on my bike still i would be fit as a fiddle, i'd be like the gambling bradley wiggins.. anyway, recently i have been breeching my terms on the self exclsuion as going in shops i shouldhnt be and no one batters an eyelid, (really annoyed at this but too i am at fault) i report this to the central exclusion but only when i am in despair and lost it all.... i am now 13 days GF and intend to keep it that way roll on the £2 limit (as i cant see the bookies paying out when they are losing after the change) i hate my self but i need to change this!!

Hi Jeff,

Maybe time to hand control of your finances to someone you trust.

Many have done this and take no cards out just a few quid cash for the bus/lunch/coffee etc

Hi Jeff, or Bradley should I say, that made me laugh. Onwards we go each day we succeed to not gamble is a great victory. Adam 160 days gamble fee, not a single penny.
