2nd day of not gambling, and its hard I've only ever been an online gambler I've put in gamstop, I've finshed work last night got in to bed and went to try and gamble,
When it was there I didn't want to gamble... But I did it anyway now it's gone I miss it and want to do it, I'm so confused on these feelings,
I came out of sainsburys yesterday and was tempted by the bookies ive never been in the bookies to gamble,
All I keep thinking is w*f is worng with me,
I spoke to ara yesterday I've got an assessment on Wednesday,
The struggles are real I atcullly have a problem
It is so hard mate but the best thing you can do is to ban yourself from any online/bookies you can accesss, i made the mistake of after my year ban i didn't reinew it again and got sucked back in! Just keep yourself banned because you will never win!
I've banned myself for 5 years on gamstop, gamban is only a year I will renew, got an assessment on Wednesday with ara,
Found Friday the toughest day,
I'm in day 4 now if gamble free its getting easier I think, I've been busy working all weekend, my urges for bookies have gone I've got this I think
It gets easier. I was hooked on online slots. Your find something else to keep you busy and have money left at the end of the month.
