Day 102

Thanks everyone! 🙂 it feels so good to be this far. There was a time when I never thought I could make it last a month let alone 3!

But, need to continue to be cautious. Had a lot to drink last night ended up staying up and the urges were the strongest they've been in a while. A reminder that I need to stay on track by being aware of 'danger zones' and not put myself in that position again.

Still 102 days as a non gambler - with a headache lol

Day 103

Family party today after a full lazy day yesterday I got to spend the day with wonderful people in a lovely location and the sun was shining. Non gambler, appreciating things that cost nothing.

Actually a tenner for a bunch of flowers for my loved ones which I wouldn't have been able to afford and felt guilty about before! How much simpler and satisfying life is.

Day 104

On holiday now so of course, I'm ill again! But was able to pay for a nice lunch for us today as I haven't gambled for 104 days! 🙂

Day 106

New month! I've wracked up 3 months worth of bank statements free of gambling transactions and this time next week I will have been a non gambler again for 4 months. Can't wait 🙂

Well done red xxxx

Day 107

Thanks bird. I'm trying my best to stay busy and positive ATM. Had a few urges recently. Recapping the journey as a refresher 🙂

Day 108

Feeling down today. Pretty sure it's just a state of mind but that is always dangerous territory so staying vigilant. I even just felt like being over 100 days hadn't really happened/didn't feel that significant for a second?! So reminding myself that next Tuesday I will be 4 Months gamble free 🙂

Was great reading through your journal Red. Im three years clean now and it is honestly the most amazing feeling in the world. Keep going, you're an inspiration to us all :D! Hope you're feeling better after your downer TGIF! x

Keep it up hun - really not worth it for a second - one day at a time xx

Mr Gamble has been a good if false friend to you all this time, so it's hardly surprising that you miss him. Better to smash the triangle before rather than after, short term, is there anything you need to do that would prevent gambling if the will power melts?

Longer term, can you arrange more counselling? Even if it costs, you're worth it.

Day 110

Thanks for the support. I do have good blocks in place and thank goodness because if they hadn't been there last night then I would have gambled in the early hours of this morning.

This is the second time this has happened now so I really need to practice all of the things I previously put in place to change my state of mind. This really does seem to be the main thing that works for me.

I was so ready to just let those 110 days go this morning, obviously not thinking straight after a grand old night out, but oh how sad it would have been had i not had blocks in place.

So glad to still be consecutively gamble free. 2 more days to go and it will be 4 months.
