Today is my first proper test and I’m here on this forum rather than maybe trying to bypass Gamstop (don’t know if that’s possible and I don’t want to know). After my self exclusion, bits and pieces of money has been coming into my account from all the different sites. I logged into my account today and saw £117. Immediately, my first thought was I can increase this money easily by playing my nemesis blackjack. I have kept myself busy and avoided getting sucked back in. I’m now all alone in bed and I’m writing on this forum rather than try find a website that’ll let me play. This is day 4 of my recovery.Â
Get rid of the money temptation will always be their
@absentee I did pass yes. I transferred the money to our groceries account SIF h is joint with my husband. I have gamstop in place anyway so don’t think I would have been able to even if I tried.
You’re doing amazing — seriously, just being here and staying strong says a lot. Day 4 is huge, and choosing to post instead of giving in is a real win.
Sometimes when I need a distraction, I do random stuff just to pass the time. I found this https://psycho-tests.com/test/rice-purity-test pretty fun to mess around with. It’s light, and sometimes a little curiosity can help take your mind off things.
