So my first week was up yesterday and to say it has been strange, With going to my first GA Meeting to trying to stay clear of football and Saturday, Ive had so many temptations going from looking at odds to walking past the bookies and seeing the "special Boosts" in the window, In the GA Meeting they have said to put Barriers up as such ive made sure that ive banned myself from any gambling websites and ive made sure that my wages dont get paid to myself which is a great idea so now i dont have any control meaning even if i wanted to gamble i couldn't physically do it, overall its been an up and down week really but i havent gamble, taking it day by day and marking that day off knowing i havent is good.

Fella welcome and well done for finding the courage to address your addiction.
I hope you continue to get help and some great advice from the GA room, a place which without doubt had a very profound affect upon my own life.
Each days absinence is a 100% payrise from gambling
You did win because you did stop
Well done, enjoy all it gives
Duncs stepping forward never back.
Well done mate!
I have finally admitted to myself I have a problem and am taking steps to stop it. With a lot of will power and some support I will stop my gambling. It's going to be a fight but one I'm up for.
Keep up the good work and don't let them win!!
