Just read your top post and wow, I'm so sorry about your loss of savings and how you feel with being a financial crutch.. you seem really positive which is an excellent trait to have, I hope you stay positive and can save again and stay gamble free. Genuinely wish you the best + I agree people shouldn't be able to lose so much in a day, I've done the exact same thing and it's a horrible gut dropping butterfly feeling.
Wish there was a way to like 'follow' someone on here like Twitter because I'd like to see you beat this and get back to normality but I'll try keep an eye out.
Good luck Sammy

Evening all
Today has been a great day - I think 44 is my magic turn around number
The stress has eased a lot and for the first time in a long time I am starting to feel Joy again and given that i'm female Joy is not my mrs lol .
Happy days at last .

Thank you OPJ
We are all good people in a bad senario - we hold so much value in who we really are . Nice to remember who we are when we are not CG's.
Here's to happier and healthier days .

I've writen off the cash as a ghost of the past and common sense prevails in that I am not silly enough to think i can win it back, I'm just not that lucky but as we know luck has very little to do wih it. If we was lucky we would not be here right.
Feeling super positive today and know i'm going to smash this week.
Still doing alright today is not a good day by all accounts but i can do this. Day 50 today and im probably 75% at peace with myself. The key is not to regret the money i think .

Scintillating Sammy sure is on the move
50 days without a bet and getting in the groove.
Determined and courageous this plucky heroine
Self assured, defiant and wearing a cheeky grin
Congratulations and respect from Stephen x

Nice one Emptyp2! Great positive step. Done mine yesterday, got some self-exclusion emails this morning so looks good so far.
