I'm with you stephan.
With you all the way Stephen ...... checking in on day 376 glad to report still gamble free.
Everyday this week apart from today I have been and threw my life away, left my wallet at home and took minimum change for work this morning with best intentions and then found myself at dinner getting the urge, what a feeling that was beating that part of my brain for the day, got home and thought should I?? Couldn’t be arsed trying to find a bookie that I am excluded from. I won today and i didn’t involve money. I have to do same tomorrow and just take enough for beers.. works night out! One day at a time! Roll on the £2 limit!
This is the best I've felt around Christmas time in like 13 or more years. I am not bragging or complacent. I am merely stopping to feel into the time of year at hand and although I'm not in perfect life circumstances and I don't have a big ole year gamble free... I'm still feeling better than any other year in a long long time. I'll take the imperfections and I'll take some depression and not having all my expectations met, I'll take alot of let downs and I'll take life as it is, "perfectly imperfect". I'll take all this over the horrible dark night of the soul huge losses of money and my soul. For now, today, just for today I'm seeing that things are better., tara2

Well done charttom one full year is a hell of an achievement.jeff coming from someone who spend two years relapsing time and time again I can Sa that pursistence really helps, chin up dust yourself off and start again. See if you can do 2019 a lot better, this year I started on new years and made I to may so it definitely helps starting on a new year.
