Hi there I've been here before under the name of for-Jennifer which was my ex partners name, I gambled quite a bit and it all came to a head, my partner and mother found out, my partner stuck by me even after everything, I attended GA and have been bet free for 286 days which I am quite proud of, in the last 286 days a lot has changed my partner and I realised things just weren't working we decided to finish things shortly after I got my life back on track, my mother has had control of my finances and recently I've met a girl who I honestly couldn't be happier with, I have just regained control of my finances as I decided it was time for me to become independent again, I haven't really thought much about gambling but I believe now that I have control of my finances that I'm scared of gambling again, with such fear it's making me think of gambling more and more, so I have decided to return for some support not to gamble again,
Regards Cathal day 286
Welcome Cathal.
Good to see you back. Eventually you have to take that next step and coming on here shows you see the danger and ate not getting complacent.
I am just coming upto 6 months GF and only the other day I sired up my defences by calling the new SE for bookies and excluded from 35 bookies in half an hour over the phone.
I don't know if that was a problem but it was for me and made feel a bit more secure closing done more doors
