Day 16,
Well today was hard going due to work decisions that have really affected my personal life and i was so angry but I managed to resist gambling and just fizzle out the anger I don't know how but I did.
Hey blondie thanks for your post ye I think i may try that this thursday as long as I have time in the evening. I should have this weekend off all being well so I can spend time with my missus an family etc. Well done on 36 days that is really good and I hope to be there soon aswell 🙂
Chat soon and stay strong everyone 🙂
Ricky over and out. 🙂
Hey Buddy,
Great to see you posting and remaining bet free! I just read back my post to you and i said take this one day at a time and you will be surprised how quick yh days mount up! Well I posted that on your day 5 and today I read you are at 16 which proves my point! You are approaching this in exactly the right way, and you seem to have 1. a real determination to stay bet free and 2. A very supportive nature which helps others!
Keep up this good work and remember you are doing something really great by stopping so enjoy your recovery!

Day 17,
Today was another challenge I got PAID.
But I stayed strong and again another day gamble free. I think this road to recovery is like an assault courses some days you can get over the obstacles and other days you have a big 12 ft wall which you need some help to get over and for me being on this site with the diary and all your support i can get over those days with the walls in front of me.
So i thank everyone who posts on here and i will try help others who need that boost to get over their obstacles. Stay strong
Ricky over and out. 🙂
HI Ricky,
Keep jumping that assault course ricky your doing great, Nice to see you on line on the G.A Meeting last night, what did you think ?
Blondie day 39
Day 18,
A good day today. I am finally home for the nice long weekend even though it doesn't look too nice outside right now. Going strong now pay day is here and i got money i just got to stay away from machines i got ways of dealing with it like only carry what money you need and no bank card but im keeping them demons well at bay 🙂 stay strong and have a nice diamond jubilee super long weekend 🙂
Hey Blondie ye was good in that G.A meeting i had to leave early because the place that does wifi was closing but i enjoyed it and will be back next thursday take care and well done on the 39 days 🙂
Regards
Ricky
Day 20,
Hey everyone hope your all enjoying the weekend. The weather isn't so good but it is nice to know I don't have work until Wednesday. Making the most of this weekend which is so much better than wasting it sat in the bookies the whole time. I just feel like the days last longer now that I don't sit in the bookies worrying if I am going to lose all my money.
The benefits off gambling are definitely showing not so much in the finance part because I have a lot to pay back but eventually if I carry on gamble free I will definitely be better off.
Hope you are all staying strong and having a nice long weekend
Take Care
Ricky 🙂 20 days gamble free.
20 days, wow ricky so very well done.
