Day 6 here and feeling OK, but last night started thinking how easy it would be to boost my bank balance just by a few pounds won - perhaps I could allow one site when my self-exclusion period ends next month... What am I thinking of??? Note to self: make all self-exclusions permanent! Looking forward to seeing my bank balance in the black again today, even if it is just by £100, when my weekly income appears and cancels out the rest of my overdraft. Long may it last!
Great to see you deploying the courtroom technique Baggins - stating the case for the prosecution......which are all the what ifs of gambling.......and then counteracting those with the case for the defense.........all of which are facts. Keep doing that soldier and you'll come through this, I'm sure of it.
Tomorrow night, when you read the update on the 2014 Challenge thread you'll see your name with the number 7 next to it........one week without gambling. Reasons to start feeling proud again!!
Keep strong today.......one at a time.
Mr B
Thank you Mr B! The sun is shining, daffodils are nodding - hope it's a similarly sunny day for all on here. Off to do some gardening and to count my blessings rather than bemoan my losses...
