Hi Hugh
I resisted thank god. I don't know what made me want to last night. I know if I did I would of just messed up Christmas all together. I'm so so glad I resisted now. It can be hard at times though
Nicki
Hi Nicki
I know tell me about it, I think it is boredom or stress that triggers the urge there is only so much boredom one can take before our resouceful little minds wonder back to gambling lol but gald you didnt go down that road you felt cr** today and hey you dont want to start off on day 1 again just think only 6 weeks to go to Christmas we can do it kido
Hugh
Well done for resisting that urge, Nicki. I had exactly the same thing recently and gave into it and you know what, it was like having a f*g weeks after quiting. As in, it felt disgusting and I felt guilty at getting so far and giving in. Also, it might have meant me being skint for the rest of the month, but I didn't chase and wound up back her, realising what a f*** up I just made. Stay strong, you've shown you are by not giving in to the urges. These urges will come again but they'll be weaker and you'll be stronger.
Hi Nicki,
A massive well done on resisiting those urges, they will come and go from time to time but i believe that each time we resist them we get stronger and learn that little bit more about ourselves and this addcition.
Keep going nicki you can do this.
Take care

Hi Nicki,

Hey Nicki,
Just wanted to wish you well and say well done on your progress so far. As many have said the urges do come but over time they simmer down a little and your previous strength and determination will stand you in good stead if they do return.
Brilliant to see you part of the xmas thread and it puts a genuine smile on my face seeing people check in each week. That smile widens when I see newer members to the forum showing great character in those early weeks.
Keep making the right choices,
Flagg
