Day 14:
Two weeks Gamble free!!
good feeling.
no urges today, realised how many adverts there are for bookies and sites on the telly- shocking really!!
Day 15:
Another day under my belt. Didn't really cross my mind.
No real urges or moments of weakness.
Day 16:
Gamble free - had moment where i felt like I was on the way to the bookies, kind of like a habit - Was weird, but just shrugged it off.
Day 17:
Gamble free again today. Had a brief moment where the thought crossed my mind. Must not get complacent.
Decided I'm only going to post on here if I have a wobble, or if I reach certain milestones - it's almost like gambling is out of my mind until I remember the diary...
Well.... 21 days done!!! 3 weeks, feels good!!!
28 days!!!! Didn't think this day would come!!! Feels good, pay day tomorrow and I don't owe a fortune out from borrowing 🙂
30 days done. Wages in the bank and I actually have money!!!!
Just checking in - 36 days GF!!!! Had a couple of urges but nothing major, wasn't too tricky to resist
Hi there!
Brilliant! Keep going with this, you are doing great!
Have you thought of taking your mates aside and ask them to keep you out of the gambling loop for a while and not talk about it so much when you're around? If they are good friends, they'll understand and make things easier for you.
Kind wishes
Gabriele
