have to stop for me and also my family :-(

Hi Scott

sorry to hear about your little blip but congrats on realising it was a blip and getting back on with the battle. Glad your feeling better about it and as you say if it's 1 blip from July to July that is brilliant going , keep aiming towards that target ..

The start of a bet free week again,happy that I picked myself up and dusted that blip I had.it was a prity expensive one but I have learned alot from it.on I march on hopefully gamble free to july a day at a time.i must thank everyone that has supported me here. Had a great weekend because I decided not to keep chasing the £650 I had lost from sun to thur.instead I took my lovely wife out with the last of money I had to my name for few drinks on sat and also got us a takeaway to sit chill and enjoy on sun after kids went to bed. Happy times no gambling for over 7 months small blip now back on track to gamble free life. #feeling happy.

Hi Scotty

Thanks for your lovely message yesterday, and I am sooo pleased to read such a positive post.

Onwards and upwards my friend.

Back to feeling strong again 11 days after that small blip. Been really busy with work so not many chances to gamble right enough.had a great weekend away with wife while her sister looked after the kids for us.that small mistake cost me a lot of money but is well behind me now and something I have learned from.
I will now march on to july hopefully to reach 356 days and only gambled 5 of them which would be massive achievement for me considering I was nearly every day gambling for past 10 years.today I feel great and content with what I have in my life.love my wife and kids to moon and back so dont want them to see me as a jeckle and hide person no more.

Great post Scott , well happy for you and your family . Keep up the great work and positivity pal .

Keep it up its took me 51 years to consider giving up gambling. I guess being brutal you have to ask yourself would you sooner lose £650 or your wife and kids....rather brutal. I had a year of self exclusion and slipped back worse than ever so be careful.I apologise if I have upset you or anybody else with this post.Sorry

Lovely last positive post Scotty, you are back on track now, and even stronger now.

Stronger I march on to july and hopefully to be happy that I only had the one small stumble on my road to recovery from being a compulsive gambler.i must admit I have missed a few GA meetings recently but coming on here has got me through hard times and kept me strong.thanks all for your kind words on my page and long may this gambling free life continue.TODAY I WILL WIN BECAUSE TODAY I WILL NOT GAMBLE.

Scotty you have done fantastic since you started your recovery, I hope you are not dwelling on your blip, if you are let it go it was nothing when we look at the big picture, be very proud you got back on track very quickly, am very proud of you, and you should be

proud of yourself, Turn that blip into,a big positive now, because you are so much stronger and wiser for it, (don't do it again lol)

Keep starving it and keep winning.
