Why has nothing been highlighted on here bout the fact in the last cpl of days the bookies are panicking over this 2 pound min bet and there saying hundreds will be closed. I'm like many in here that will be gd news
Hello Christer. Hope your happy and well. Time passes so quickly, it's nearly february already.
The bookmakers have been moaning about job losses if stakes on fobts are reduced to £2. It seems to me that they're trying to justify destroying millions of lives just to provide employment for a few thousands.
It won't affect me anyway. I've finished with them.
Wishing you well my friend. Stay strong and we can beat this....stephen
I'm sure it won't affect them that much there just worried bout there profit. Hey ho they give us enough pain. I'm eleven days now g free Im with you don't want anything to do with them thankyou for your reply we all need to stick together
Here we go again done it again not proud but gutted again
Christer. Hope your ok. My thoughts are with you. I imagine your feeling disappointed and upset.
I wish I could write something constructive but I don't have any answers. I just hope you can pick yourself up and try again.
Take care...stephen
Hi Christer, just wanted to wish you well and I know how hard it is, take some time and you'll come back stronger.

Thankyou wolsey I'm sure I will I just to take each day slowly again
Hello Christer hope your weekend runs smoothly.
The addiction will try to use our past relapses as ammunition against us. Having repeatedly fell into the traps, our gullibility must make us very vulnerable.
Take care my friend...stephen
Yes spending time with my fam has helped me I'm on day 10 and I know it's small steps but I have to target another zero on end as not reached that yet but that's long away. Hope ur keeping well I'm glad u never stayed away long cause people enjoy ur help
Good job on 14 days gambling free, Christer! Things get easier to organise once you stop gambling. Only gambling makes your mind lose control and lose common sense.
Hello Christer. So sorry to read your daughter has been poorly. Hope she is getting over it ok.
Take care my friend...stephen
Hello Christer. Thank you for visiting my diary.
Hope you have been ok and your daughter is feeling better.
Wishing you a good weekend...stephen
No she's still in hospital only 15 and wants her life gone and starving herself so she's bee sectioned hope fully she'll recover thanks for asking
Sorry to hear it, addiction (whether alcohol, food, gambling, codependency) is a whole family issue. You can’t control what your daughter eats, just as she can’t control what you gamble. But you can change the family dynamics by changing you.
