I look forward and accept any advice, support as i know this will be hard

But i am determined to beat this and do everything that i can as i love my family dearly and i just want to be happy again

Best bit of advice is Gordon Moody's Association! Check out the website. 14 week rehabilitation programme. It might seem a drag but it allows you to slow down and realise what you have done wrong and piece together your life.

 

The best thing I did was walk through them doors on the 22nd July last year. 6months gamble free, in control, powerful and happy in life since 2013.

 

It can be boring their at times but you learn to be bored but amongst fellow gamblers and you support each other amongst the lessons and therapy sessions.

 

Like I said best thing I have ever done was step in the doors at G.M.

 

New on here but any questions feel free to ask.

Hi Happymeagain,

Keep going you're doing fantastic, 30 days is an unbelievable achievement. For a CG day 1 without gambling is a wonderful achievement. Why ? because we've already laid down the first foundation stone to help us to get to day 2.

Best Wishes

AL
