I'm coming up to my first year gamble free...Will I go back, I don't think so!Â
Â
...I've spent over 10 years telling myself that I'll stop and finally after multiple relapses I'm confident I won't be going back.Â
I purchased a Gamban subscription almost a year ago and its locked me out of gambling sites. I also took up talking therapy to discuss my addiction and help to put me on the right path...And almost 1 year on I can say the outlook is bright.
I don't set unrealistic expectations...I keep it in the day and don't exceed that!Â
Â
I'm not perfect and can't guarantee I won't ever gamble again - But just for today I won't gamble!
