Day 20 (and 5 days to payday 🙂 I will actually have some money this month!!! Yayyyyy :))

Anyone reading this who has had or is having that terrible downer after chasing losses, feeling anxious and overwhelmed by how they’re going to make it through until pay day, I was like that 20 days ago... stop now and put the blocks in place that will help you through. Read people’s stories and start your own diary, if I can do you so can you. Good luck! Kaz xx

Hi Kaz

Well done in reaching a high number of 20 days. Keep going and keep strong, follow these 2 simple rules and any urges go away immediately.

1. I am Kaz and I will not place that first bet.

2. I will never question my decision to stop gambling.

Once again excellent start.

Shaun

Thanks Shaun... your words of wisdom have helped me and so many others 🙂 thank you. I’m sad reading some of the new posts on the forum, so much pain and so many effected by this awful distructive addiction... I pray for them all to find a way to cope. Have a great weekend, Kaz xx

Ahh thank you Loxxie xxx ... it is indeed difficult times, quite surreal. I have had no thought at all to gamble, but tonight I thought about this site and the fact I’d not been on. It’s been a saviour up until now. I really hope and pray my strength continues and 37 days gf becomes 337 days 🙂

Thanks again for your care and support and condolences to you also xxx Kaz
