Thanks nt have some great days and bad days but maybe this is the reason I gambled in first place still learning about myself and what brings on anxiety episodes and general well being gambling certainly helped me paint over those cracks but sadly took my life in return day 116 have to keep up the hard work have a great Sunday everyone x

Hi bear,
Congrats on your continued journey my friend and you're definitely winning the fight each day you abstain. Really good to see you in such uplifting spirits, truly changed man to the one 118 days ago 🙂
Way to go and keep up the good work.
Have a wonderful Christmas my friend, your loved ones by your side and peace within yourself. Best present ever!

Thanks Sandra merry xmas to you, day 118 I had a flashback to a few years back when I walked in to a local bookmaker with my salary plus xmas bonus in bank and proceeded to spend the whole lot on a snowy covered Southwell the only meeting that survived the day didn't have any rent money left no xmas presents money nothing and went to my mum to see what she would lend me she could only manage 300 and I got the hump saying what a terrible mum she was what a horrible person I was and could return to be,that's enough to keep me going with this fight against gambling I'm slowly learning how to put gambling in a closet but I hold the key I'm the one that keeps it there it's all up to me have a good day all x
