Well the new day 1 is complete and although i had the urge to gamble i didnt. Still found myself checking the results, n think if i did gamble it would have been another terrible day so pleased in that respect. Need to get out of the habit of looking completely though.
Off with day 2 then, busy day at work so hopefullu the thoughts will subside
Well day 2 has gone ok, had little thoughts but they have quickly passed due to being busy. Keep reading the forum which is a big help. Off to the gym when kids are in bed so will have my mind set on that. Determined to beat this now!!
So day 3 went ok and gamble free. Even more pleased with myself as my mate sent me a tip (which ibe told him not to do). I did for a second consider it but i didnt back it, and surprise surprise it won, but instantly thought to myself i might have backed it and won but i would have still ended up losing it all shortly after. So although i had the urges i resisted. Win for me!!
On with day 4!
Today is day 7, the last 6 days have been gamble free. Still having little thoughts about what could be, but starting to think more long term now as regards to the future. Just need to keep taking one day at a time.
Affected by gambling?
