Have a good GF day everyone!

Watching my baby girl having a nap on the sofa, instead of gambling. Feeling proud 53 days gamble free!
Well done Steve.
Glad to see you are still one day behind me! What a beautiful distraction from gambling - your baby girl. Enjoy and cherish.
Take care.

Morning All/FEB
Not sure why but I did something stupid this morning on the train. I received an email from a casino giving me a £25 chip if I joined. So I joined. Lost the chips and self excluded but I'm not happy with myself for doing it. Even wasting the time entertaining these bstards for half hour. They got no money from me, it bored me within seconds and floods of memory's came back about how excited it all made me which I guess is there aim
Day 58 in the gamcare house
Still feeling very vulnerable after yesterdays episode and it's got me wondering.... When you 1st stop gambling I think one of the biggest fears and mountings is getting over the fact that you will never be able to gamble again and the even bigger fear that the wanting to gamble will never fade! Does it??
Yesterday a 5 minute window in my determination was open and I spun the slots reels I didn't feel like gambling before I did it and I didn't feel like gambling after I did it, so why did I do it?
I didn't deposit anything I joined a casino took all of 30sec and spun a no deposit bonus £20 took in total 15-20 mins. But it could of been devastating to my quit. Impulse scares me....!
Stay stronge people! Enjoy your weekend!
You to Steve and well done on stopping before your moment of madness turned into a life time of pain.

The urges are apon me tonight, misses has gone out, I'm home with kids and seriously considering a tenner, for someone who spins £3 a spin can't see how it will only been a tenner, guess it's just my brain looking for a way in!
As you know Steve you can add a couple of 0's to that £10 in no time. Just s thought what would you do if you won big on that first £3? withdraw it go and book that family holiday you want? I doubt it you'll just say I'll play it down by £50 then another and before you know it all of it is gone, then you'll be depositing to get it back. Snd £1500 down again. Does that sound familiar?
If you've still got the urges pop into chat at 8 bud

Hope your well tonight?
Thanks KTF
i know, I'm still kicking myself from my last relapse I would be one day short of 90 days now and a over draft paid off. 1 day in 89 days and it cost me 1500 2 days in 89 will Deffo cost me £3000.
I do come on here every day to read and I head straight for the new members forum and I come close to tears everytime! reading other people's posts that are so fresh from the damage gambling causes is enough to make me stop!
Happy 60th day gf to me 🙂 and everyone else who's enjoying a gamble free Sunday!
Well done Steve.
