Hi all,
I thought its been so long since I updated my last diary I may as well start a fresh one.
Today is Day 165, my last bet was June 15th 2018.
Longest time ever in years without a bet. I get the thoughts, but my big barrier is remembering the sick feeling I got from loosing, and determined not to do it again.
Self excluded online and from local bookies, that really helps. Dad overlooks my finances.
Currently a shade over 9k in debt, and awaiting a court case for fraud, But thats on back burner with the police, abd debt is with Stepchange.
Starting a savings account this time, first day I didn't gamble I put a penny away, Day 2 is 2 pence etc, account has £125 in now, is that proof enough not gambling does pay?
Best Wishes all
Steven
Hi Steven... I like the idea of starting a savings account. Its day 6 for me and am off to put my penny in a jar 🙂
Well done on your gamble free time. keep up the good work as i do the same

Ah man,
I don't know how I managed that - today is day 166!! I was a week ahead of myself in my first post. Apologies for that all.
Still 166 days GF though, doing well.
Faced more of my demons today, offered people I owed money to a repayment, waiting to see whether they reply 🙂
Pleased debt is slowly starting to decrease! Still have the thoughts in back of mind but thankfully not acted on them.
Taking one day as it comes.
