Hi everyone,
I am a semi-regular user of this forum (I had a previous diary, entitled "done it again... another relapse" which I started in late September).
I managed to last around 70 days, and a couple of weeks ago, I relapsed. Again. Badly. I am now firmly back to square one.
I should be disgusted with myself, but this has happened time and time again, and I am almost desensitized to it.
Well, this has to stop. The new year approaches, and I am DETERMINED to go through all of 2016 (and beyond) gamble-free.
That's not to say that I will be gambling up to 31st December, with Christmas a few days away I need to keep hold of as much money as possible. All the presents have been bought, as well as food/drink etc.
It is going to be a long hard slog until my next payday (26th Jan) but I know that a little bit of willpower and keeping this diary up will help massively.
Here's to a clean '16 everyone!
Good luck mate, Iv only just joined this site and only just quit. I've only gone 3 days without betting so far but I feel now is the right time with a fresh year around the corner. I'm low on funds myself as I don't get paid again now until the 20th of January, just got to budget where possible and hang in there. Good luck buddy and all the best for 2016
Happy New Year everyone! Let's beat this addiction!
Hello,
To keep it going, plan ahead for payday. It's easier when you're skint but how are you going to keep the triangle broken when there's money in your account?
Wish you well.
