Just thought I'd start this diarie
Well its 3 days now without out my addiction to online slots well actually a bit longer to this vice but I did put £1 into a machine whilst leaving a pub on Wednesday evening. A stupid thing to try I know but I suppose that was the gambler within.
Ive got my phone blocked also hopefully getting my finances in order.
Been to 2 ga meetings and got a appointment to see a councillor.
I would like to thank all of the members on here who have taken the time to help and encourage me on my new journey because without this help I don't know where I would be now
I thank you one and all
Hi Jeff,
Just a quick word to applaud you for the measures you've taken and for expressing thanks to those people whose help and encouragement is proving beneficial.
Stick with your diary notes. Each day will be a challenge, but you have made a brave start.
Kind regards,
