Hi Tom
Just read through your diary so far and just wanted to say well done on your great progress. It can be done and having the mindset you have, will really help you to continue to stride forward and further away from your last day of gambling.
Take care and enjoy your life.
Our Lady.
Congratulations Tom - fantastic achievement. Stand up tall and feel proud!
Keep up the good work x
Congrats man, that is an incredible number. Keep it up.
Thankyou guys for the messages. Really does feel good to be getting some serious gf days ticked off. It's took along, long time to get this mindset. Have relapsed many times with the amount of money wasted not even worth thinking about, it's not coming back. Just got to keep making the right decision every day now.
All the best guys.
159 days free.
I don't comment on others posts much, sorry about that. My window to look on here and write something is limited. Anyone reading this who thinks they can't stop, you can. You just need will power and determination. Always have your guard up too. I'm a professional person, not daft, if I told anyone I know about what I went through they probably wouldn't believe me.
I'm not as well off as I should be due to gambling but I'm fixing it slowly. I'm much much happier without gambling. I'd got it real bad. Started a few years ago with online poker, ended with me betting £1000 minimum each bet on football several years later. 4K in 2 hours last session. I've lost a lot of money to this.
Anyway, I progress. I will never go back there. Life gets better folks, I'm in a good place now. You just gotta stay gamble free.
Day 200 tomorrow gamble free.
Didn't realise how close I was to 200 until I logged in, such are the infrequent thoughts of where I was.
This is my longest abstinence for years. Long it will continue.
Affected by gambling?
