Well done suzanne and thank you for your words of encouragement. Ive only just started on my journey of saying no to gambling but you show it can be done xx
Good morning diary
115 days today and staying strong and positive
No thoughts whatsoever to gamble today
Work us quite stressful at the moment lots of changes happening soon but I am not thinking of gambling at all and that is a good in control feeling
I will not be playing today because it does not interest me today at all
Wishing everyone a strong and positive gambling free day

Good morning diary
116 days today of being gamble free and winning
I have read two posts this morning about one person abstaining for 2 years and then another for 5 years
I want to thank both of them for sharing their experience and I wish them both the very best
It shows me even more that I can never underestimate this gambling addiction it can rear its awful pull at any time
I still feel I am getting further and further away from any form of gambling
Today I am just not interested whatsoever and that is very positive for me to keep going forwards and onwards to a happier gamble free life
There are big changes at work about to happen and I am one of 40 people (middle management) that will be part of the changes can't say too much right now but it is a very stressful time for all involved at this time
Also my thoughts are with my two granddaughters 24 seven with the upcoming funeral of their grandads
No date yet
Thank goodness for FaceTime Facebook phones and texts because I am there for them 24 seven not the same as being with them though
My son and their mum split up when they were little and then I moved up North and son followed but their mum remarried and had had two more children so I am thankful they are surrounded by a big loving family down there
The aftermath of gambling has given me another blow because I can't drive down to see them I simply don't have any spare funds it would cost about 100 in petrol alone
I am taking more strength and positivity from this because I NEVER WANT TO BE IN A SITUATION like this again (have nieces wedding to deal with next week too) they live in Kent
Up until 4 months ago I would have borrowed PD loans sold anything I had used OHs card I would have even stolen from OH to gamble on a stupid chance that I might win enough money to see all my family
Not today or tomorrow because I know that chance would be minus 10000 zero I can never go back there and by abstaining and maintaining one day at a time That is the only way I will build my money back up and get back on track
I will not be playing today because It's my choice and I am sticking to it
Wishing everyone on here a happy strong and positive gambling free day

Good morning diary
117 days of winning by abstaining and maintaining
Middle shift today at work and then 2 days off
Feeling tired and flat this morning but it's because I am tired after late shift and the stress of what is going to happen at work (don't know yet) getting me down
It's been going on now since June
I will not be playing today because I have better things to do with my hard earned money
Wishing everyone a strong and positive day

Well done suzanna! only hope I can get to where u are now! so tempted to say 'sod it I enjoy the slots ' but I dont enjoy the self loathing etc so day 7 for me saying todai I will not gamble. Take care x
Morning Suzanne!
117 days is fantastic and i bet you can't believe how far you have come!
I can't believe that i am over 150 days gamble free and it all seems like a former life!
Keep up the good work! Have a great weekend!

Well done Suzanne, 117 days is brilliant. September is soon upon us and then we can start the count down to 150 days, then 200 days and before we know it, it will be XMAS and 250 days.

Good afternoon diary
118 days now of being free of gambling
Busy day so far with shopping housework washing and gardening but all done now dinner is on and I am enjoying a very cold one or two
Staying strong and positive even though I still do not know the outcome for middle management at work
Will find out in a couple of weeks I really hope I am made redundant I think my job was one of my triggers for gambling as an escape to unwind
Slowly but surely abstaining and maintaining one day at a time because that is the only way forward for me for a happy and healthy life
I will not be playing today because I have chosen not to
Wishing everyone a good positive and safe gambling free day
Suzanne xx
Enjoy your day Suzanne. I am enjoying a nice glass of rioja!
Have a great afternoon.
