Hi Charlotte,
Great to read that you are doing great. I really appreciate your support and your concern. Life is really busy at the moment. Getting v excited about the baby now! Bust decorating, painting, buying things etc. It feels good to be spending money on the baby and our future rather than wasting it gambling.
Take care and stay strong.

Thanks Charlotte.
I started going to GA but it is almost 2 months without a gamble. I even resisted the urge to play the ***** (It is rare for me to place a lottery bet but sometimes I did think I wanted to be part of the excitement but then I realised it was foolish).
The second GA meeting is this Friday.
Charl what a post its clear to see how strong you are. You support and help so many people even though you are dealing with your own problems. I think you are an inspiration. Keep going and never look back only forward hun. Onwards and upwards
Just popping in......
....you might know that saying Charlotte..."what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger "..and you are living proof of that hun..
You are moving into a better space and life now and as time goes on you will see how maybe all this happened for a reason and has put you on a very different path and the course of your life changed for the better ..... very exciting future ahead for you lovely...

hi charlotte
i am now getting to the stage where i looking forward to logging on not to see the kind words people leaving in assissting me through this journey but because once i read your posts on your diary and others that you comment on i see strength, positivity and dertermination. it is a roller coaster ride but it doesnt seem to phase you, as you just keep on helping everybody else. i know deep down i will remain gamble free when there are people like you on here and i dont want to let anyone down on here as i met some great people.
take care and keep up the great work
carl

2day is a really sad day 4 me, all of my family have travelled down and over and l8tr 2day we will say a very sad final Goodbye 2 my Grandad. I know 2day will test all my strength. Since he's gone it's like a light in my life as gone out, I wish I never had 2 say goodbye 2day. But my memories of the times we spent together r all happy and they will always remain. I have lots of support around me 2day and I am grateful 4 having him in my life. So today I have 2 face this head on and not run 2 a machine 2 escape!!!!
Hope everyone is ok and staying strong x
