Five weeks have now passed since i last sucumbed to this addiction & since i last had a cig.
I have many memories of standing in a zombie feeding the machine, and smoking like a chimney, hopefully from now on that is all they are Memories.
Self confidence & self believe are now slowly starting to come back and i am getting more focused on getting things done.
Hopefully this tome i will beat this addiction

Well today has been a complete s***er of a day, the sort of day were everything has not gone to plan or how i would of expected it to go, the sort of day were i would have gone and had a punt to try and cheer myself up, but i have not given in to the urges and therefore are 38 days gamble free.
Life seams to be an emotional rollercoaster, just got to remember when in the dips not to go and seek comfort in playing slot machines

Day 40 begins, well began for me over an hour ago, feeling positive today got a couple of good paying jobs to do today, should keep me busy and away fron any temptation to gamble/play the slots.
If i make it while weekend it will be six weeks, the days gamble free are starting to rack up now. Got to stay positive and beat this.

Day 40, been a busy day - got through it without any thoughts of gambling or smoking, even though it has been pretty stressful.
Tomorrow's going to be more of the same.
