dear readers and for anyone who’s struggling
it’s been a while since I wrote you and things have changed. I’m still gamble free, I’ve managed to quit smoking and I’ve saved £12k on my own towards a mortgage.
I didn’t get here over night, it’s been hard but I’ve done it never the less.
gamstop helped me without that block who knows how much more I would of thrown away.
don’t give up. You’ve got this.
Well done on being gf, packing in smoking and your healthy bank balance.
I'm a newbie here. Day 19 for me. How long have you been on your gf journey
Well done to 19 days that’s amazing!
I am 10 months gf! How are you finding it?
Amazing to read
Well done on your achievements something to be very proud of
Holly
Massive congrats too you, always great too read posts like this.
I hope you find your dream home to spend your deposit on its well deserved. It’s 5 months for me next Monday and life is getting better.
I’ve saved 4K in that time going to keep at it for a couple of months and hopefully go travelling when things do get back to normal and I’ve received my COVID jabs.
Congrats again ?
Do you know surprising easy. I gambled for 12 years everyday. I would even dream i was playing slots and winning bonus rounds, how sad!
I think I've found it easy because I do love a good challenge and seeing all the success stories helps as does seeing the new posts of people in despair knowing I never want to get like that EVER again.
Wow well done 10 months is amazing, amazing savings in this time to. This is on of my goals too, I really want savings as I've never had any for 12 years. Its surprising how gambling changes us. Before I started I was so money organised and gambling destroyed it. I should of lived pretty comfortably and be able to not have to worry yet I would spend our bill money and more. My husband is type 1 diabetic diagnosed 3 years ago at 29. And I want to be able to have enough savings that if his sick his doesn't have to stress about having to work unwell because he only has statuary sick pay and not savings to help bills.
Sorry I'm rambling now but thanks again for your update.
Affected by gambling?
