Well this week has flown by!
Ive been busy working looking after my grandchildren wrapping Christmas presents and getting some much needed devent nights sleeps.
The whys of everything i have done regarding gambling has entered my head a few times and i really dont know why i have continued to keep destroying myself over and over again.
Writing on here helps.
Have a good weekend everyone take care
Â
This will be my first week i have not gambled my wages feel really motivated and a lot more happy still got a long way to goÂ
Well done. Its nice a feeling not to waste your hard earned money on gambling. I got paid two weeks ago and still got money in my bank, off out for a few drinks later to relax instead of worrying how i get to the next pay day. Good Luck on your journey and stay strong.Â
well done for NOT Gambling everyone, keep up the good work.
Hi my first day today. Good luckÂ
So lovely reading these messages and I’m really proud of everyone facing the challenge of the early days of recovery. I am one month in now and I can’t tell you how much happier I am - everything is different now. I enjoy my life again and it is the first month in 6 years I haven’t lied to someone close to me in order to borrow money for gambling. I still have a lot of debt as a result of my addiction, but I have worked out my finances and monthly repayments (which are high, so I may speak to step change this weekend), but I’m determined to stick to the plan and overcome this addiction. Wishing everyone else all the strength they need as we face this journey together x
