Thanks for the post on my diary mate, the support from people like yourself does help....... keep fighting i hope your keeping well.
On day 10 I have to keep on it I'm still determined to survive this x
Double figures Christer - excellent. You've secured a foothold in your ascent up the mountain. You are realising -it's starting to sink in - that going GF is not a choice, because choosing misery isn't a choice. You're actually deciding to be free of this - and you ARE free! Every day, just remind yourself that you are Free. If you think about gambling just feel elated that you're free of it, and don't have to do it anymore!
Congratulations on your 20 Days GF Christer. Wishing you success in getting your life back, gambling addiction just sucks everything out of us ....stephen
Thankyou yes im on day 21 today and I have to say I'm glad what I'm doing I can't hide never think bout it but wit blocks in place I'm happy and not skint
Hi Christer - by my calculations you've hit Day 25 today. Keep going; keep reminding yourself why you're doing this: because you want to live a full life, for you and your loved ones and friends (who just love the 'real' Chris!). You're not going down the misery road.
Keep strong; you are showing strong character here. Respect.
Wow your predictions were right as today I will be 28 gfe_rd. I have just come back of a lovely weekend with my family for my sons bday and I have to admit it's been lovely one night I actually paid for all 7 of us meals at night and believe me that's a nice feeling
That is just the ticket Christer; just want we all want to hear. You are taking this seriously and seeing the results! Looking forward to you hitting Striver level in a couple of days - a level that proves your intent. No going back now, day by day, this really can be the making of you, and the making of your better future.
Hi Christer, your GF total is up to 29 days which means striver status tomorrow. Looking forward to that; you're proving you mean business.
Yes mixer you are so right and I'm happy to be a St river my first time and hopefully last time
Congratulations, Christer. You are a Striver, for the first, and last, time. Day by day, just remind yourself of the simple binary choice. Happiness/Misery. Gamble Free/Gamble Misery. Paydays will come and go, let them, and remind yourself that money is bloody hard earned. And that is that.
Well done, mate.
Be fare to say mixer uve helped me thankyou
33 gf day nearly done with wow I'm enjoying this money in my pocket.
A pleasure Christer and enjoy that money jangling in your pocket, extra notes an' all. This is the life. Gambling? You've moved on from that. Left it behind. Day by day, you simply remind yourself of that fact, Gambling was the 'old ' you. Amen to that 🙂
After another weekend of no gambling boy has it been busy and fun I have set another milestone 40 gamble free days and yes money in my pocket is nice
