65 days gamble free.

I have been paid, surprisingly much more than I expected. Going to check if there has been mistake. If so I have reduced my debt from -1430 to -324. Otherwise if there hadn't been a mistake, I am -84 in debt from -1430

It's taken a long time, but at one point I was 3.5k in the red. Cleared it.

66 days gamble free

Ok right so my boss gave me a bonus for my hard work. That has helped a lot. I am -89 pounds in the red. Just one more pay check.

Darkhorse, I've just been reading your diary this morning!...

What a complete turnaround in your fortunes! Well done!!!!

You've stuck at it and ridden through the tough times and now you're reaping the rewards. Not only are you financially much better off, but more importantly, you have your life back.

Keep up the hard work.

Moorey.

Thanks Moorey, I'm still in debt though...hopefully will be out of debt soon. I feel so much more relaxed not gambling, realised now how much anxiety it caused me.

81 days gamble free.

84 days gamble free, instead i am spending my money on different things:

- back message, for months and months I was putting this off because I had gambled my money.

- eating out

- tickets to watch Mcgregor and Mayweather

- Going on dates

It is also so expensive! Can't believe I wasted my money gambling.
