Hi Suzanne,

Nearly four months gamble free, you're doing great and its reaping the rewards in the rest of your life too. However it works out at work, I hope you get what's right for you. Personally, our company has been doing these kind of cuts every April for the last three years, and every time I promise if I go I'll get a round the world plane ticket with the redundancy money and really enjoy myself. No luck so far :P.

Hope the head's not too heavy after those cold ones...at least its a bank holiday and you've got an extra day to recover.

Ryan

Good morning diary

119 days today that is 17 whole weeks of not spending a single penny on any form of gambling and that feels sooo good cos I was online 24/7 gambling and losing money I simply did not have

What a fool was I what was I thinking nothing but the compulsive need to keep feeding everything I could lay my hands on

Moving forwards slowly but surely now and that feels soo positive for me

I will not be playing today because it's a fools game and I am not going to be foolish today

Wishing everyone a great safe gambling free day

Suzanne xx

Hey keeping safe

Thankyou for your message I know you are not far away take care xxxx

Good afternoon diary

120 days of not spending even one penny of any form of gambling and that feels sooo positive

Why would I want to spend even one penny well I don't

My nieces wedding is on Friday in Kent and I cannot go because I simply do not have the funds

I am not going to borrow any more money for anything

Not going to the wedding will make me stronger to keep abstaining and maintaining because this will be the last time I let my family down

The last 4 months have been hard but I have got this far and I will continue to move forwards and upwards to a happier healthier and saner life which gambling has no part in it

The only thing borrowing money had done for me is to feed my addiction

I am totally committed to never borrowing again as I am to not gambling again

They both have the same ending self destruction

Tough day at work with the management changes and I am going through the process with assessments one to ones, tests and interviews even though I want redundancy I still have to do all the requirements which is quite stressful for me and everyone else

On this management restructure

I could have easily come home this afternoon after doing an early shift and gambled online but I didn't

because I simply had no wish to I came on here instead

Yesterday I had thoughts but not today

I will win again today because I know if I play I won't stop

I will not be playing today because I prefer the real world even with it's ups and downs

Wishing everyone a positive safe and sane gambling free evening

Suzanne xx

Morning Suzanne!

121 days is fantastic, you are beating the gambling industry everyday by not wasting your hard earned cash!

If redundancy is what you want i really hope you get it and maybe a little funds along with the redundancy will help get you back on your feet!

4 days to go until my career change.

Steve

Good morning diary

28/04/2014 was the last time I gambled on line on online slots

Today marks 4 whole Calander months of not even spending one penny on any form of gambling

122 days of making the right choice to abstain and maintain

I feel I have reached a small milestone and I feel relieved,positive,and quite good inside

I have a big interview at work today but I have no thoughts or urges to gamble whatsoever

I will not be playing today because I cut my losses on the 28th April and I am continuing to move onwards and forwards taking one day at a time

Wishing everyone a positive and strong gambling free day

Suzanne xx
