Hi loxxie congratulations on one month gamble free 🙂 hope I can say the same but just taking each day as it comes. Hope everything is going well with your daughter and new grandson if he has arrived. Take care hum xx

Thanks guys....bumbling along ok...no urges to play on the slots...counselling tomorrow..which I'm looking forward to....New grandson still not arrived....hope you are all doing well and gamble free xx
Hi Loxxie, hope things are well and your wee grandson has decided to say hello! I must say, Loxxie, you are an absolute sweetheart the way you are posting on others diaries, offering them advice and support, it really is invaluable, especially to new members - you are a very special lady indeed. Of course there are others on the forum who have been here longer that you and I and have worthwhile advice to offer too, but this does not make your input any less valid.
I hope you found the counselling session helpful, I have certainly gained from it. It's a great opportunity to discuss anything and everything to a stranger, knowing that it is totally confidential, and we can really open up and be truthful to ourselves. Sometimes it is uncomfortable but hope you find it helps get your head round things.
Take care xx
Hi Loxie
Thank you so much for posting on my diary. We're in such a similar place with these vicious slots. I really the day I had my first ever play on them.
Glad to hear you're staying safe and what a fabulous new focus you have now. Hope your grandson has arrived safely and both baby and Mum are well.
Take care and best wishes Loxie.
