Day 20
Worked hard all day. Did the food shop, came home and cleaned the whole kitchen. Now sitting here resting, contemplating what to cook for tea - not how much to gamble 🙂 xx
Day 21 - 3 weeks 🙂
One less thing to worry about when you're a non gambler.

Day 25
Thanks for the birthday wishes 🙂 had a day of extreme ups and downs but went to councilling and talked it out and then came home to a beautiful bouquet of flowers from my lovely OH. Even after everything. Then had a few too many and still suffering lol. It's a journey. Got breathing exercises and visualisation techniques to try this week. Stayed up last night and promised OH I wouldn't gamble. Felt great to have kept my promise and be honest 🙂 I love being a non gambler.
Have a great gf weekend everyone xx
Day 26
Closing in on one month but feeling down about the dept today. Something to remember for councilling next week.
Its a ride of ups and downs. Remember you are doing great. You cant change the debt you made from gambling but you canstop building on it from doing what you are doing eventually we will pay it off as long as we remain gf xxx
Day 28 - the month 🙂
Day 29
Made it to one month yesterday but almost gambled. If I hadn't had self exclusions in place I would have. Came home and OH told me he had gambled and won £900 which immediately made me want to. I wish I didn't make me want to but I guess it's going to take a while for the urges to subside and for good sense to dominate my thought processes. I'm not angry with him, he won and I want to be able to do this for myself. The positive is, I didn't gamble. Day 29 🙂
Well done you - really proud of you xxx
Day 30
Tired. But no thoughts of gambling. Next milestone: pay day
Day 33
Heavy wkend of celebrations. No gambling. Hopefully back to the land of the living tmz 🙂
Glad u had fun celebrating and that ur still gf - in it together x
