Stopped for over 800 days before. Started again and get a feeling it will get out of hand. Stopped on 19th nov 2014 today is 18th nov 2018 i will and can beat this. Dont enjoy it and dont have pleasure betting it is an addication. Today i stop.
Good luck my friend. You've already proved you're better than gambling. See it off for good this time. Don't underestimate it's power... It has been waiting patiently for you until your guard was down... You won't let that happen again.
You will be happy.
Good luck Jason you can do it!!
Cheers guys
Weekend comin up. Football racing beer. Lets just watch it and enjoy it. I have been in dark places mentally it aint happening again.
Good luck! I stopped 13 days ago, and lasted 10 days. Had a small slip 3 days ago. So back to only 3 days now. Would love to get to 800 days, what an achievement!

Just shy of 2 weeks. No tboughts of gamblin. Was doin so well before will aim to be there again. Good luck to everyone on here we can get there together.
23 days been as easy as before. Hope the addiction doesnt bite again.
This is one thing i think i can control, but many things that are in my head i dont think i can.
Keep on the right track look after my wife and also my parents i say to myself.
Around 4 yr ago i would have easily ended my life as it took hold and didnt see an escape. Today i enjoy the nicer things in life with being well paid and appreciate them more. But demons are there just on hold.
