welcome to the forum a place where you will receive a wealth of help,support and some great advice from like minded folk who want the same as you
to end the misery that gambling wages upon our lives.
I hope you take as much from the forum as I have.
My advice the advice that was gifted to me on my first days recovery
There is a triangle
Time-Money-Location
take one away at all times and the punt becomes impossible,gifting your brain the chance to re-wire itself.
Through arresting the destructive gambling you actually become a winner,each day you stop the losses you win.
A far cry from the mantra we all live by whilst at it.
I CANNOT WIN BECAUSE I CANNOT STOP.
you changed that,you joined the winning side.
For that well done,it takes courage and will take determination.
Be kind to yourself.
Best of all recovery is a free gift.
Duncs stepping forward never back
