So today is day 5 no gambling.

longest I’ve gone in a long time. Yesterday I got some money and it’s still in my account. 

I added blocking software onto my phone.

i was logging into my gambling apps and just looking not sure why I did this, but needed to protect myself.

I was lay with my hubbie this morning and we were laughing - I had lost sight of these simple joys. I used to wake up and gamble. Or think about gambling, or how to get money to gamble.

Day 5 is a massive achievement each day that we don't gamble is an achievement. I've been on recovery around 2 months but have had several lapses but I get up n get back on the journey, never give up giving up. I'm currently on day 8. Stick with us on chatroom, it's not compulsory but every now n then it's good to check in with others who also are trying to stay on the route to being happy. There's no happiness in gambling just misery I'm afraid. Hope to see you chatroom soon 😊 jennyj

Hi Jay

The normal life that gambling stole from us is so beautiful when you can appreciate it
