Good day all.
I am a gambling addict that have lost nearly £17K across 6 years of gambling. The main cause is boredom and seeking the adrenaline hype (although I am working and having some very busy periods - I still get bored).
I am writing to explain that once again I am on day 1, and give the promise to myself that I will not even play heads or tails anymore in my life, let alone gamble in sports or casino in any way.
I will keep a diary in the "diary" topic section, with thoughts and daily struggles, and I am feeling strong and hope this is gonna last and never lose a single penny, that we all work hard for.
All the best, keep strong to everyone and keep in mind that the time to stop is now. Thank you.

A lot of people go through it.Â
Ive relapsed many times, I don't think the addiction will ever be gone but for now its not bothering me. I don't get tempted but I know I've been in this situation before and let me guard down and ended up gambling.
I wish you the best!! The 100th relapse doesn't always lead to a 101st relapse 😊Â
Thank you very much! Keep it up, I am planning this time to stay free for good!
