Hi Bob... sorry to hear about the relapse. Keep focused on not letting it happen again. You need to do this. Gambling is not an option. Good luck sir.

Hi change sorry for the late replies. I have been on course prior to going away and that has been keeping me busy. I have unfortunately relapsed last tuesday and once again lost nearly every penny i have. I would almost say im lucky to be going away for 3 months as at least food and board is free when im away and its basivcally going to save me from myself for a short time. The real struggle is going to come when i am back home in december as i will have spare cash.

I have however already spoke with my gf and i am going to bank transfer her most of my spare cash after bills whilst i am away. I think these next few months are going to be a good time for reflection for me and i hope to realise that i dont want to waste my hard earnt money and be in this position this time next year, life really is too short.

The definition of insanity is repeating the same task over and over again and expecting a different outcome is something that i know is true to me and what i am doing with gambling. Bottom line is i just need more willpower.

Hope everything is good your end il drop a message on your diary soon, Bob

Sorry to hear this relapse Bob. Seems like you have made it acceptable to gamble up until you go away as you know you'll be ok whilst away and you're getting it all in now. It's a poor decision but I respect your honesty. Keep your head up and think what you need to do to quit. Good luck pal.

Yeah i would definately agree with that i even recall talking it over in my head prior saying "it will be the last gamble before i quit", obviousy ive said this a 100 times in the past my own stupidity and justification at the time of this really does upset me in hignsight. Thanks again for they reply i know what i need to do, stop and cut the excuses.

Just keep re reading that last post... you've summed it all up there. Don't lose the battle. Keep the faith and put it into action because you'll have to do it some day and you don't want the things to get worse. Good luck pal.
