I'd like to start a 3 month challenge and offer you all to join me. I like these challenges, I think they can really add focus and I'm in need of a bit of focus as the urges are creeping in more frequently than I'd like and I'm prepared to fight. I'd like to declare that I'm in a full time job with an 8 month old so it may mean that I'm not as update as I'd like to be at all times so I apologise in advance if that is the case. But hopefully I'll keep on top of it all. I think we should start 1st of July and aim to be gamble free July, August and September. If you want to join reply below and I'll add you to the list. This is open to all, day 1 or day 1000. I suggest everyone checks in once a week (more if you'd like to). I'll do a little recap every Monday with who's checked in and how far we are in to the challenge etc. I'll keep registration open for the whole of the challenge as even starting late completing the challenge will be an achievement to be proud of whenever you start. I wish you all the best (weird I hate saying good luck now, seems to remind me of gambling somehow). See you at the finish line.

Sars your in, great to have you with us, hope the challenge helps.
I'm hoping so too 30sept I'm not a daily gambler but I'm admitting to myself I'm an addict . I did it twice last year and lost 2 grand . And already twice this year lost 2 grand January and 3 grand 8 days ago . Not that I'm in debt or something but my biggest fear is that we have 45 grand in savings and that 2 , 3 grand loses twice a year would become 4,5,10 grand til I loss everything . I'm positive I can beat this !! I don't gamble often but I do I go big ! What an idiot 🙁 . All my hard work and wife's hard work last month I just flushed Down to online roulette ! I'm feeling better now and I'm not going to gamble one day at a time !
Plus I've never admitted to myself that I've had a gambling addiction/problem before ! I'm lucky to find this website and it helped me so much by learning from others and talking to advisers !
Thank you again for letting me join .
Stopping now when you see there's a problem is a very wise move. I remember coming on here saying how annoyed I was at having £1500 of debt oh how I wish I had just stopped there.
Unfortunately if we have a gambling problem the money is irrelevant it'll all go however much we start with.
I'm glad you have come on here as it shows your strength and you can make sure gambling doesn't impact your life anymore.
See you at the finish line my friend ! 3 months let's go ! Thanks for you're kind words and I wish you all the best 🙂
Can you count me in please!!!
Will do krlsthjkl. Great to have you aboard. All the best on this road to recovery
