Thank you everyone for updating your dairies and clocking in to this thread. I will soon have a little housekeep and give a discreet post to those of us who haven't updated for a while; just so we all keep in touch!

Katiecoo, you've requested to be rested from our group, which, of course, I have done. It's with sadness, because you were here, with this group, at the very beginning. Please, keep in touch, because you seriously started a GF journey and you can do it again. If you want to start again fresh here on Gamcare, then you can always change your username. But keep going Katiecoo, we all want you to have a better life.

It's Sunday. Let's relax. Sod any thoughts of gambling and let's enjoy the day. Just for today!

Hi Jayd, like you I read the diaries often and it's with sadness because this condition we have can have massive consequences. I have no choice but to stop personally - I simply cannot go into debt as I have no contingency. You're right to show the 'two fingers' up to the insidious gambling operators and to do so every day. One day at a time.

Kirsty - I like the extra reward you're going to treat yourself when you're 100 days GF, but here's my suggestion - spend that £100 long before then. You're not gambling, remember, so this is 'free spend' you can put good use to anytime. As soon as you've built up £100 from the money you've saved not gambling treat yourself, whether that's in a week, or a month. Why not 🙂 !
