When I finally admitted to others that I am a compuslvie gambler and took the plunge into recovery and a different life, on day one I just wanted my milestone to start with a 2. I guess day 2 was going to be tough enough but I wanted to get to 200 days. It felt so far off. Stuart's thinking was all wrong and had got himself into one hell of a mess so I knew I would need to learn off others and put in a lot of work as I knew nothing about recovery and had never tried to give up.
No cake delivered, banners in the house, balloons or party poppers lol but today at 1134am I hit 200 days gamble free. I can't thank everyone enough on here for the advice and support. I genuinely enjoy recovery now and through the journey so far it's amazing and can't wait to carry on down this road.
Congratulations Stuart 200 days has been achieved shows how much effort u have put towards recovery and helping others it shows comittment and dedication u should be proud since i started recovery the people who managed look term success attented 4-5 meetings a week and after month or 2 cut down yes success was achieved but i have never come accross anyone with your level of comittment long may this continue👍
Keep it up mateÂ

That's a fantastic achievement and a testament to your consistent effort. I hope that you take a moment to recognise how far you have come and the positive changes you have made. A greater peace of mind particularly is worth celebrating.
