Hope you're continuing to step in the right direction dark? I read your post on your diary this morning. You're flickering between positive and negative which is the best I've seen you... just keep edging towards that positivity. You're a great catch for someone so don't put yourself down. Make 2017 your year. No point waiting till 2018.

Thanks for your kind comment on the 100 day challenge thread and delighted you're hitting double figures GF tomorrow. Next time I write here, it will be to congratulate you on treble figures. Right? 🙂
Thought you might drop by and congratulate me on 30 days and maybe the half ton? I'll see you on ton up day though.

Day 10 - I will not gamble today!
Hi Change
Sorry to hear about the relapse. Glad to see you are back into double figures gamble free.
Your gambling patterns seem to be similar to mine. You go a decent period gamble free and then succumb to a binge.
I am trying to change my own mindset. I used to think that clocking up the days was what mattered however I realise that I am able to clock up a fair amount of gamble free days myself by the underlying problem is still there.
For me the real challenge is avoiding complacency and managing to resist the big binge later on which for me has been the biggest killer.
Hope you can keep thje monster in its cage and rooting for you to stay 8 days ahead of me in the count.
Best wishes
Mark
I've been thinking about how to respond, Markman, but I just don't know the words. It's grim. I try every day to battle this addiction and sometimes I just seem to wilt. It's demoralising and I can't explain the logic behind my actions. I'm just losing years of my life. I'm giving this all the strength I have to change for good.
Day 11 - I will not gamble today.
