Don't give up.

Stay committed.

Use your diary when urges come.

Remember what you've lost you'll never get back. As hard as it may seem, you need to let you go of your past as a gambler. While you'll feel numb about the losses and the debt, should you stay on track you'll be grateful later for not having gambled anymore. It'll be hard at times, but gets easier down the road. You can lead a life free of gambling.

Welcome to forum, Molly.

Wish you the best on your journey.

-Alex

Hi

I am not gambling at the moment. I am finding it tough but hang in there on Wednesday it's 90 days since I had a bet. I too failed many times but each time I came back and tryed again there was nothing out there for me gambling wise only more trouble hopefully I stick with this. My head is not in a good place today but I take it a day at a time and hopefully I will get there in time. One day at a time you can do this keep picking yourself up and keep trying.

I can only say, you have to stop. Post everyday, read stories about losing. Give your money to someone close and tell them your problem. After two weeks you will be back to normal, but then you will have to fight the urges! I have a whole load of problems in my life. I think, the real problem that causes us to gamble is the fact that there really isn't a problem...It is the way we perceive things...

The person you always wanted to be, is the person who you already are...Believe in yourself...I'm with you too...

When you read this last bit ..I want you to say to yourself.. "I'M OKAY"....It made me think and I realized that it's true...

Have a relaxed new year.

Start afresh.

No more gambling is the only bet that allows you to win.

Happy new year!

Hi, I am also on day 4, let's do ot together!!! You are doing great, I am here instead of being tempted! Did some work, listened to some music and don't feel the need now so the urge has passed. My diary is called, is there anyone like me, feel free to read and we can maybe be a support to each other?

What kind of gambling did you do? It can be beaten, I have done it once...for 2 bloody years which is why I am so angry at myself now.
