FM's Diary Of Regrets

Hi,

Congrats on reaching 30 days. That is a sensible decision!!!!

Best wishes

Thanks Bal entered in day 31

Hi FM,

Well done on getting a month without gambling and wasting money. I think the first few weeks are the hardest so well done. Just need to keep it up and not get complacent. Keep working through the urges!

Take care

James

day 32 gone tried to keep myself busy but for uknown reason i was feeling more anxiety and thoughts about losses i hope they go away soon otherwise these feelings are not good

Day 35 nothing much to report still struggling to forget the past but i keep trying

Day 35 for me too and I totally get your above post fm79.
No bells, no whistles but just got to keep plodding on, doing what we know ultimately is the right thing to do.
Some say you've got to forget your losses. That's easier said than done when because of them, you're struggling daily.
You said earlier sometimes we make stupid decisions, I guess we've got to just keep going, reminding ourselves and feel proud that we've replaced that stupid decision with a sensible one of not gambling so that never again will we have to sink to the depths of despair where gambling can take us.
Keep going fm79 and I'll keep keep on going right beside you.

Thanks lil miss l for your support, i know exactly how you feeling right now, as you said forgetting losses very easier said then done. This is how gambling made us totally brainless, and we do things which we never do in real practical life. For a person like me who was already going towards quittng without losing much from this my little gambling experience then throw away all life savings on the day when i supposed to quit is a big shock for me.

God knows how long its going to take but i am suffering every day guilts regrests shocks heartaches etc...

I haven't gambled for

Nothing much to report there are a lot things happened in my life not good though but not gambling related so recovery going fine

Completed half century 50 days no gambling.

Well done for reaching 50 days! Just wish I could say the same! I lost 1000 2 days ago and 1700 9 days ago! That is what I don,t get is why is someone like you and millions of other can easy stay in control but there's loads out there like me who can,t! I guess this is the different were maybe your not a compulsive gambler like most of my friends but I am a full sick compulsive gambler! I,am happy for you mate always stay in control but remember you can anytime turn into a compulsive gambler like and please hope to god you don,t as its hell mate! Good luck

Happy Hawaii Day

Hi Walk i understand you feelings , yes i am sure i was not compulsive gambler but was going towards it, quitting gambling was not difficult at least for me as i played only few months in my whole life, the only regret is that i made a worst blunder before quitting which i never done in my whole life, lost all my savings just because of my non serious attitude, i could have left gambling without losing a penny but paid the big price just for quitting.
