*** Join The Guru Challenge! ***

Hi Stephen (Abstainer),

I am really saddened to read that you're 'in the wars' and totally understand that you feel that you need to 'take a break' and leave the Challenge, and Forums, for a while. Sometimes, it's good to take stock and work out why you're feeling like this. The trigger, I would suggest, isn't gambling itself but something that's driving you to it. I know you have health concerns and these can put anyone off kilter - and, of course, life can be tough at times anyway.

Please take care, please keep in the loop with your family and friends; it's good to be alone but never lonely. We all care about you here, you've made some good, genuine friendships and we're here whenever you need us; you know that 🙂

Take care, Stephen.

Mixer. Please remove me from the Guru Challenge. Thanks for all your help and support.

Sorry mixer been so busy lately.
Life is good, kept busy with family and work.
When the urges rear their ugly head I focus on my family and how far I've come.
Life feels so much more positive without the guilt and worry dragging you down.

Hello

I gamble every day and it takes up alot of my time, need to find ways to stop or its going to ruin everything. How do you guys do it?

Checking in at 92 days gamble free.

57 days gambling free. Life is really testing my will power these days.

Another week without gambling thank god. Had a bit of spare cash this week so put it out of way in a savings account. Just finished another 60 hour week and I’m off to enjoy the rest of the weekend. Have a good one people.
