Cheers for the post Oldham going
​to have a think
I have a problem, I admit it I'm addicted to poker, all I can think about is poker, whens my next game, whens the next bigger game
​
With bigger stakes, I get excited every week about playing go then come back thinking not going next week then do it all over again. I'll have a think about what I want to do ? Think I need to give up one thing at a time. First poker, then smoking then drinking. I have said this many times now so I wont try and do too much too fast. This week I wont go to poker today, Thursday and see how I feel at the end of it.
​
yesterday was day one and I succeeded, today is day two and I succeeded​

Right so I'm back to square one, day one tomo, I'm going to write every day. I spent 131 pounds from Friday to Sunday this weekend much too much, I went out drinking on Friday, had bbq all day sat and bbq and foot ball all day today.
​
In a way I had a really good weekend I just wish I could gave a reaally good weekend without doing anything associated to gambling.
​
​I have a really good job now and have weekends off now which is nice. I will start to look for other ways to spend my time socially.
Welcome back Adam
