Firstly thanks for your kind words on my thread.

Im so pleased you have managed to get through another day. keep up the good work and lets keep our money firmly in our pockets and not in the bookies. Its a form of re-training our brian to get to the point we were happy and never ever gambled. Since admitting my GA and being honest with my family and friends I no longer have nothing to hide "its like walking out of a dark tunnel and I can see the light" enourmous weight has been lifted. I still have things to face and sort such as debt but im approaching it all with baby steps.

Good luck

Anyway day 23 now and still got money in my purse and bank and a week to go to pay day, I'm chuffed, I have no urges to gamble either but trying not to get over confident as anyone can slip and I really don't want to go back there. This site helps so much in many ways

Well done! Just read your whole thread. Taken me a while to admit to myself I have a serious problem and that I won't win my losses back but it starts here for me. Day 1 is tomorrow. I'll keep reading your thread, glad to hear it's going so well.

Morning morning morning, keep,those days a rolling - I'm singing cuz it's day 25. I've realised that my personality changed so much, I went from having a good sense of humour, up for a laugh and being full of life and energy to the awful gambling started to suck everything out of you. Even my skin feels better as I'm sleeping more - I've looked in the mirror sometimes and thought who are you, at work I acted the same but I've been a shell of my former self for several years. The benefits of kicking mr g out the door are beginning to show in so many ways. I've not go this for for years and I like it so come on guys and gals let's stay united and kick it for good x going to work the dog, shopping, house work, visit my parents. As Arnie said, I'll be back x x have a god happy safe Saturday x

Well another day almost over - wow been busy today and spent money on a couple of birthday presents when out shopping which are in a couple of weeks. Bought my dog some new toys which she loves even though she still loves to chew my shoes! Bought my mom some flowers, felt so good to have the money to do this at this late stage in the month when I'm usually waiting for payday so that I can spin those awful wheels on the slots to see if I can recover losses to which we all know we cannot. So glad its getting further and further behind me as the days clock up. Best wishes to all on this journey with me xx
