Am back and after having so many topics going over the past few years. I am back for good, I have always relapsed after doing so good. I think once you have had a few months off, you think you are stronger and wiser an you can deal with you addiction. You can never control it once you admit you have a gambling addiction. No matter how much I try an have one bet a day it leads on too gambling from I get up till I go too bed. When your lucks out no matter how many bets you have it's just not going too happen. Day 1 starts tomorrow 15th November 2014 a new chapter for myself too redeem myself an become that stronger gamble free person a can become that good person I am. Keep posting people an I will do my best too keep posting it makes all the difference. I need too stay on this website. I have all the answers but as soon as I start chasing it's game over till I have no money left 🙁
Please close your financial access. Share your problem wih your family.
Day 1, feeling positive an motivated too succeed this time, can't beileve over past week how many bets I had had an how many losers I have had. It is so hard too win money an so easy too lose it. I have gambled for past 15 years an have nothing too show for my money. All my life has been full of ups an downs through gambling. I know myself I can't go back, I need too take every day as it comes an stay strong 🙂
Day 2 nearly over. I have kept myself busy an focused on not gambling. I Watched football tonight relaxed an chilled seeing scores coming throu. Shocks like teams 100 places below managing too draw with them. Sport is so close now as it's so competitive. Every day we take on our gamble free journey is a learning curve an the hardest learning peice is how too deal with the urges. Some days them don't affect you an some days all you want is a bet. I wake up every morning an remind myself. I am a compulsive gambler an cannot gamble as I will lose everything I have ever worked for. Onto day 3 moving forward never back 🙂

On day 8 an still gamble free. Saturday always a hard day as it's most likely urges will come alone. Best idea don't check prices an only check results. Plan too stay busy at work, stay focused an feel free. I awakened this morning an told myself I am a compulsive gambler an must not gamble as I don't know when too stop. Moving forward never back 🙂
