Belated get together with daughter number two...only because she was away for weekend....lovely couple hours spent putting the world to rights....simple things make me happy now...friend coming round tonight....catch up with other daughter tomorrow...then granddaughters 2nd birthday party on Saturday...so looking forward to having my three children...and three grandchildren together....I can sense a request for a photo of them all together....may proove tricky to get them all to oblige lol....anyway ...what I'm getting to is....my gamble free live is wonderfull....ok so still things to sort....and time is the only healer for the people I have hurt....but I'm trying my best....I'm being honest..no more lies...and I'm not gambling....so I'm making progress one day at a time....anybody new who lands im this thread....you can make your life better....you can sort debts...you can make wrongs right. ...but you have to get those barriers in place immediately. ..open up to people...and most id all you have to want to do it....yes it's hard....but get things in place...get a couple weeks under your belt....and it soon all becomes easier ....praying my strength continues x

We forgot about the little important things in our lives when we were in the oblivion of gambling loxxie, so it does feel really good when we start to do them again, even boring food shopping gives me a lift now, because I can afford to buy food now :)) lol.

Don't think too had ahead, one day at a time is just fine with everything.

Well done you on your gamble free time,

Keep positive

You are so right Suzanne....simple things.....I feel so strong and in control....but I dread a lapse that loads on here have....I've got everything in place to protect me....and even though I have no interest to play online I do worry about what others say about relapsing

Hi loxxie and totally agree with you as it worries me about people who have been gf for along time and then relapse. All we can do is be honest with our loved ones and keep the barriers in place and just take it one day at a time. I am so grateful that I have support from my loved ones and that I found this forum which has helped so much xxx
