Hey everyone,
All is going well, no bets and gamble free. Having trouble with my internet service, that's why I haven't been on the last couple days. I have a tech from the company coming out Tuesday to fix it. I'll be back on much more once it's fixed. I hope everyone enjoyed there weekend, and is doing well. Tomorrow will be 11 weeks, 77 days gamble free! I wish you all the best in your recovery, and a much happier life.

Geees nothing I hate more than computer problems other and gambling ones I guess. Lol guess one thing I found is I dont have any of that trouble when im using the Internet on my phone. Maybe smaller for typing but pretty much issue free.
Glad all is well on the gambling front for ya and hope it just plain old stays that way.
Hi Chicago

Hey everyone,
All is well and today marks 11 weeks, of being gamble free! I'am happy to say I don't have any interest in placing a bet. I'am determined to remain sober and committed to my sobriety, and reap the rewards of it. There is still healing ahead and continued work on my new sober life and goals, a life that doesn't involve casinos. Thanks to all my support on Gamcare, and in my outpatient therapy programs, I can now see brighter future. We can beat this addiction that has so much infliction, we just have to reach deep down, and not clown around, and take in the support that will help us abort, the gambling. I wish all the best in your recovery.

Hi Chicago Guy
As I type I realise I referred to you in my diary as 'CG' - which is unfortunate, apols for that 😉
( or is that the clever point...? hmm)
Anyway, congrats on your progress. You're two weeks ahead of me and appear to be in a strong position with regards to your gambling addiction - showing a healthy mix of determination and reflection. Ingredients for a solid foundation on which to push on exponentially.
nice one
Hello all,
Hope everyone's enjoying there day. The weather is finally starting to make a turn for the better, warming up to the 50 s by Friday. I'am hoping to be tackling the river fishing by the third week of April. I have group therapy tonight, so I'll be looking forward to that meeting. I'am just enjoying the fact that I no longer gamble, I wish you all the best in your journey's that you are on, to rid this addiction.

Hey CG ...
I also thought your user name was a clever way of turning your life around ... : )
always interested in your thoughts and your recovery journey...
I thank whoever is up in the sky for pioneers from the other side of the pond in the US for making therepy and group work acceptable and giving us stuffy Brits a language to speak...
It's been a literal godsend to me...you guys are so far ahead with that ...
R and D xx
Hi Chicago
I hope you get what you need from the group tonight 🙂
Keep doing what you're doing Mr, it seems to be working for you- well done!
Catch up soon
