GOD I AM FUMING RIGHT ABOUT NOW

I wish you all well

Hi Carl. I don't know whats been said or by whom but please don't leave the site.

You have been one of the constants in my diary, even though Im only able to post now and again, you ALWAYS think of me and so many others on here.

You're a legend my man, rise above it, whatever it is, you're so worth your place on here, so don't let yourself be driven away.

We need you on here Carl 🙂

Hope youve calmed down friend

Take care @ All the Best

Hiya Carl. Don't know what's been going on but what ever you do do not let it effect your recovery. Your doing bloody brilliant and your so close to your target. Forget it and ignore whoever this guy/girl is, obviously not worth worrying about.

Thanks for your post mate. Glad to see your on the new thread. I think it's a great tool to keep you motivated and focused especially during Christmas when money gets a bit tight and your thoughts are on other things sometimes your resolve can weaken but with the extra barriers such as this new thread our minds shouldn't drift and we can stay strong. Be great to get to the end of the year and start the new year with a bang.

Hi Carl,

Just wanted to say the forum is far stronger with people like you here. I hope you decide to stay or at least only take a short break.

Wishing you all the best,

Flagg

Hi Carl,

I hope u r ok and staying strong 🙂

I am sorry 2 read u r feeling down....U have 2 do wot is rite 4 u but I just wanted 2 say that I felt the same last week and my bf said something 2 me that stuck he said ..... U can't change other ppls behaviour but u can change ur own! ..... U r doing brilliant Carl, u have supported soooo many ppl here me included. And u have good taste in drink Strawberry cider lol

I will miss u posting with ur positivity!

Stay strong 🙂

Hi Carl, I don't think I've spoken to you before so hello. I've read that you've done do well to get this far and that you're thinking of leaving this site because of some mindless idiot. My advice is not to, don't allow someone else get in the way of your recovery, don't allow your emotions, however aggrieved you may feel, to rule your head. They are simply not worth it, your continued abstinence from gambling is crucial right now, you can't afford a slip up that'll set you back. Often when we are emotionally hurt we become vulnerable, we care less about ourselves and run the risk of self destructing. Don't allow this to happen, be firm, do what is best, take some time to cool off if needs be but come back and do what your best at, not running away but fighting this illness and supporting those who genuinely need you and forget about the odd idiot who we all run into from time to time.

Take care Carl

HI Carl,

Not sure what has happeend mate but just wanted to say dont let anything that other people say or do affect your recovery, this addiction that we have only needs the slightest excuse to get back in your head and try and drag you back, dont give it that opportunity by making yourself vunerable to it by leaving the site.

What ever was said ignore it... Its your recovery, your way, in your time.

Best wishes mate dont stay away to long

Hi Carl

Take care

Hi lovely cream cake George! lol

Really great to finally speak in Chat Carl! Sorry to learn that you were angry about someone on here but I know who that is as I have been on chat a few times and he was there. I think he tried to take advantage of your nice nature and sadly he has got bigger problems than gambling. I hope he gets some help but best to try and focus on YOU Carl as you are doing fantastic! I would be sad if you allow him to stop you on your road to recovery so dont allow that eh? There are many many good people on this site and unfortunately in life you will always meet someone who wants to drag you down!

Anyway...think i'm going to run or maybe skip to the fridge tonight but sadly no cream cakes there!!

Take care you

forwards not back
