Thank you for that, I'm going to try and get a counter up as it will help.
Having a really hard time at work and feel so stressed out, but have not gambled.
Day 7
My stress levels are off the scale due to work issues, massive redundancies and so on, but I have not gambled so that is a positive in all of this. Hope others are equally finding some progress.
Still here, still plodding on and have not gambled - been couple of moments felt it welling up though. God,this is not good to have this feeling swimming about waiting to bite your ankles.
Hi Bluebella,
Thank you for your post & no, nothing is kicking off, just sharing opinions ☺
Well done on keeping the good fight up! Urges comes and goes but the main thing is to ride the storm out and come out the other side. Accept that things will not change overnight and you still might feel as c**P on some days, but the further you walk in your journey, the easier it will become.
Have some faith in yourself and keep believing ☺
One day at a time

Well I'm still gamble free which, given the stress I have been under, is a miracle! Eating has not been good, alternative to gambling and something I have to be careful about.
Hope everyone else is doing well 🙂
Checking in as it has been a while but the urges have been low, but still bubbling there. I cannot gamble as I cannot win as I cannot stop - and it is all fixed so they make their winnings from compulsive gambling. Say and repeat.
Affected by gambling?
