Hi Suzanne & ODAAT.

Thanks for the messages of support. I am grinning from ear to ear!!

I am so proud to reach 300 days gamble free. All I wanted was a string of days without gambling to free my deep fried brain from the shackles of slot addiction. I have 300 of those days behind me!!!

My family are proud of me. They didn't think I could quit gambling completely. I hate it now. It plays with your mind and takes over. I read another post this morning which says gambling lies dormant. When it wakes, I have to be ready to fight. I have been stressing about the grand national for a long time but it is just another day. I can do the same as I have done for 300 days.

I was not able to control my gambling but I can control my first bet.

No bet today!

Congratulations on reaching 300 days. What an acheivement now dont f**k it up with that stupid race on Saturday. Also just read your post on how it gets harder after the 100 so will keep that in mind as i start my second 100.

2 lovely posts in a row 🙂 Never mind your family (although that is great), it's lovely to hear you proud of you!

You have adapted, you have changed & you have given yourself a lovely sturdy platform to the rest of your life! You will make the 3% statistic that you covet but remember, that is but a stepping stone!

I too learn from diaries ahead of me so thank-you for showing me the way!

Keep winning Suzy - ODAAT

I'm like a bus, nothing for weeks & then 3 on the bounce...Thank-you so much for dropping by 🙂

I am proud! I've had the reverse gear removed & am watching out for those wrong turns - ODAAT

Day 303,

First time in decades that I didn't bet on the grand national. The race was run today and no bet from me. The urges were strong but I didn't give in. That can only make me stronger. Another event safely negotiated by making the right choice. Phew but I am glad it is over!

Take care all,

Suzy

​for me 303 days abstinence gifts a far greater value than the result of one Horse racing event,because the outcome is priceless.keep enjoying the rewards.tomorrow 304 days of consecutive winning and without waging a single penny.enjoy it.abstain and maintain.duncs stepping forward never back.

Hi

Dan

Hi Suzy, just read some of your posts you are doing so well and should be really proud of your success, I hope I can beat this addiction as you have, well done Jaz x

Hi Suzy thanks for dropping by,

Another great achievement for you safely negioating through yesterday.

I believe to day that it's a great big opportunity for the industry to cover up the misery that problem gambling really brings, but to CGs it's not problem gambling it's a self destructive brain frying horrible lifetime addiction.

Always keep your thoughts in my mind, it deep fried my brain, thank you for that, it keeps helps keep me strong.

Way to go Suzy, our brains will not be deep fried anymore, they have been cleansed simply by giving all to recovery.

Proud of you

Thanks for the support Suzy. Glad to see you negotiated your hurdle yesterday and still going strong. I do set myself small targets 20 days at a time till reaching the goal of another century. Thankfully no gambling related dreams last night hopefully thats the end of them again for a while. Might not have helped that i was on holiday last week and most nights consisted of a few alcoholic beverages which could have that effecy. Was Back at work today and hopefully back to normality.

Hi Suzy,

Thanks for popping by, WOW 306 days for you of winning.

Be very proud you are doing amazing.

Day 311

Just thought it was time to step it up a gear on this road to Recovery so I changed the subject name to something more positive. I am 311 days without a gamble and reading through the long-term gamble free diaries, I have to continue to change my mindset and embrace recovery.

There can be no more beating myself up over the past. Whatever time and money was wasted on gambling is long gone.

Never underestimate the power of positive thinking.

Take care all and enjoy this sunny Sunday.

Suzy
