Hello all. I'm sorry I have been useless in supporting anyone who has been struggling lately as I have not been on here at all. I haven't gambled since April payday which was 15th April I think, so however many days have passed. I'm not sure why, as time has passed, i've not thought to log in here because I haven't felt the need. It's nice to see that the same relaible girls and gals are still consistent and supportive, so that's really nice to see. I hope I don't lapse, I don't have urges or the anxiety I used to get, so there's no reason to think I will. But if I do, it's so comforting to know that I's be welcomed and supported back on here. Keep going everyone, you got this!
No longer counting the days is the dream for everyone surely! At some point you have to simply be a person who does not gamble rather than a gambling addict counting the day they haven't gambled for.Â
Amazing mate u are living the dream life i decided after 1000 days bet i no longer count the days im working on myself in other ways
That's great, I'm the same GF since April and haven't counted days
Massive well done misty willow, that's an amazing achievement! I seem to get to 21 days n something happens or someone upsets me n I fall backwards. God knows how many times I've lapsed but I need to try and focus n get pass the 3 week mark n found something else to de-stress. I feel embarrassed about it all tbh and I feel stupid. Will catch up with you soon on chatroom. You're doing brilliant! x
Every day without a bet is a day worth counting but all we have is today.Â
Thanks all, and keep going, hope to pop up on chat soon! xx
