Told the wife I am glad I have. More self exclusions over the next couple of days
So I start again today all while madly wanting to run out the door and gamble. I hate gambling and what it does to me. The sweating, anxiety & sheer bull s**t ness of it all. But yet as I write this I want to run out the door and mess things up again. Welcome to the lunatic asylum that is my head.
How's the rest of the day been Michael? I feel your pain in all your recent posts and I can draw similarities to my own battle with dealing with this addiction. Stay strong and keep the faith.
Nearly gambled tonight how stupid can you be. Just posting here to remind myself
still here struggling along mad for a bet but that is life for me every day I don't gamble is a good one and hopefully my life has many goodones
Feel dreadful tonight struggling so badly, I just have to keep getting through. I want to be there for my wife and kids this thing has messed up everything from the age of 16 its blighted my life. Yet I want to gamble tonight, why? I am not going to gamble tonight or tomorrow but I still feel the urges.
Hi I hope your feeling in a better place then your last post, you know you can do it because you have gone 200 plus days before, keep thinking of how good you feel when not consumed with doom and gloom because of money spent and lost on this awful addiction, stay strong and positive. X
45 days tomorrow hanging in and 50 next Friday
46 Days Not Out I am happy out with this, I suppose because I have constant urges pretty much used to this I feel happy with any day for anyone here struggling hang tough gambling not worth. I don't gamble because there is no stop button. I suppose trying to curb my anxiety would be a major plus in my life. stay well everyone.
48 Days I don't make this easy on myself but I happy out at the moment. Urges are still at me but I can do this.
On Day 2, I went back gambling have not lost any money actually won. I know where this will end so I am back on the wagon and hopefully stay there.
Affected by gambling?
