Life is looking up gonna keep it that way . Thank god i found this site . Good luck all stay gf dont look back .

thanks Bamb84 for your post on my diary and a huge well done on racking up 42 days and for starting your day on a determined note that you will not gamble today, that's the best way to start any day in my opinion.
Great work!
Wilsy!
Ok 43 days gf im having urges to gamble but im not going to give in and ruin all my hard work . Im sure this is going to get harder rather than easier . I need that sick to my stomache feeling back and to keep reminding myself that its not worth it . I know if i even look at a website i will be back to square on . So i will not give in . I will stay strong . Gl all x
Wham Bamb gambling in the can and that's where it's going to stay.
The addiction will attempt to sow seeds of doubt in your mind. Don't listen to it. It may masquerade as a friend but it is nothing like a friend. You know exactly where it leads us and it's a horrible place we never want to visit again.
Your here now where it's safe. We are all together on this gamcare road sharing our hopes and dreams whilst giving each other support.
Enjoy your gamble free journey and rediscover your freedom by going forward one day at a time. If your having a bad day just live with it. Distract your thoughts and focus your attention on other things.
You know you can do this. You have the courage, the desire and the will. Take care...stephen

47 days gf hust seen on the news how mps want to reduce fobt machines to ВЈ2 per spin instead off £100 but they think too many betting shops will close and they will lose too much in tax revenue they should just do it too many people are losing everything to those machines its a joke . Ive never played them but have seen too many stories on here about fobts . Anyway gl ev1 have another gf day 🙂
