And still the casino chases me with further emails, actually made me so angry today to think that I threw my money at them !. A few hours and onto day 15. Will be really busy at work for next 4 days so will be safe emotionally. I also ordered some magnesium suppliments today as they help with anxiety and I aim to do all I can to fight my illness/addiction

Sadly i know what i would have spent it on...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-38308842

A mate once said to me that if he won the lotto he'd gamble all day... I said that was the most stupid thing I'd ever heard. Unfortunately a few years after that conversation I was locked in a gambling midst and I'd have probably thought the same as him. No respect for money and just a desire to get that heart pounding feeling of the gamble. Very sad to think back.

Rogerson - welcome aboard Sir! You are challenge member No.9. Are you going to be the first to buckle..? Thought not.

Mel - great to have you aboard too. Our 10th member. I know you're not going to waver. In fact you wrote, and I quote "I am not going to let you guys down". Just what we want to hear, music to our ears. We look forward to getting to know you.

Katiecoo - you are doing brilliantly and these vultures are are disgrace aren't they. NO LONGER. Keep strong - we are truly with you all the way. Me and you have a special bond - both on Day 14!

Change - your link reminds me of the old saying. Owe a bank £5000 and you can't pay, you have a problem. The bank lends you £2m and you can't pay, the bank has a problem! And fully agree with your comments.

WCAWW!

Thanks, SC, for the kind words. Let's all get to 100 days. I really really really (did I say really 🙂 ) want to see you succeed this challenge. I honestly believe you can!

Klamm, we like the way you're approaching this. You're exactly right- DON'T dwell and think of today and the future.

Evening all.
Sorry I've not been in chat, I'm nights tonight and tomorrow so been sleeping!

I just want to say a big thank you on behalf of everybody who has joined this collective diary to the mixer for investing his own time into setting this page up, carrying out data collection for roll calls and being a very infectious person.

You alone sir are driving this group to succeed.

We CAN and we WILL was just a sign off I felt was appropriate and we have snowballed into this.

I wish everybody well who takes this on. It can be done.

We CAN my friends, and by God we WILL.

Hi all, would appreciate it if I could join your group. I'm a serial failure at trying to kick gambling,currently 13 days without a punt. 100 days gambling free would be the light at the end of the tunnel, a chance to put other parts of my life in some sort of order. I've had enough of swimming in treacle, I need to move forward.
