Cant hold back the tears of how much of an idiot I have been.i stupidly started betting again after setting xmas challenge.as everyone dropped out I jst followed myself which I regret.i was winning and losing but nothing to bad until last Thursday I lost 500 all because a 20 bet went wrong.its now Tuesday and that 500 has turned into 1500. Its the most ill I have felt in all the years of gambling.i never placed a bet y.day or today and blocked all online accounts but feel as if someone has ripped my insides out. Sorry for such a long rant but glad am back on here.please scott dont ruin it this time :-(:-(:-( today is nearly over so that will be 2days without a bet but not really got any money to bet so not got any choices.giving my wife all spare money after bills are paid when I get paid at end of month so hopefully this will help me.dont no what al do if I fail this time.:-(

Lying in bed right now next to my wife who is sleeping with tears running down my face.this horrible illness has hit me bad,think its even worse because I have had to borrow money from my mum to get me to payday.feel as low as it gets right now but tomorrow I will keep myself busy and will not have one single bet. Am done this time right from my heart.
Day 3 begins. Got family round and trying to put on a face of no worry or stress but finding it really hard.hopefully in the next few months they will see a change that I dont just want to sit with face tripping me! Gambling I HATE you and never want you back in my life again.
Its day 3 and things are hard,not stopping myself from betting but feeling major guilt.i am on holiday and just sitting around my house as I have no money to go and do stuff with wife and kids because of losing 1500 in 4days.:-(:-( I jst wish it was September
and the money was back for us to do stuff.i owe them so much for this but promise i wont gamble again this year and take it from there.
Hi Scotty
Well done on coming back and facing this self destructive addition
We cannot win because we can not stop how true this rings
We cannot just bet a tenner because even if we won we would not stop
But you can stop by simply saying NO and taking one day at a time you can do this and win every day you don't play
It's not easy but it's the only way forwards and upwards
Living an honest and sane life without gambling in it beats self destruction any day That is the only thing you will get from gambling
Stay strong and determined one day at a time and you will do this
Best wishes and well done on day 3

Hi Scott am relatively new to this site and have just read your diary from the start. I felt so pleased for you when you got on your good runs and gutted with your recent post. What stood out though is the sheer will and determination to beat this and the fact that you keep coming back here is to your credit and will ultimately I hope prove decisive.
Today is day three for me in the last chance saloon. I will follow your diary, and hope we both find the strength we need to kick the a@#^ out of this.

The day of guilt is getting harder and harder,jst went shopping with my wife and had to stand there as she spends her last while I have blown 1500 in 4 days.feel absolutely sick,she is the best woman ever and this time I will not let her down.betting can go f##k itself because I can never ever win because I will never stop.payday next fri feels months away but wont be long,and she will be getting every spare penny of mine.

Day 3 completed bet free. Just going to bed,after feeling bad anxiety attacks full body shaken.body finding it so hard to cope with the guilt and change of not checking scores and odds all night long.hopefully feel better in the morning.:-(
