Good to hear you're ok Castle. Take as much time as you want, be kind to yourself and take care, Steve.

Hi Castle

Good to hear from you and that you are doing ok.

Hope everything works out the way you want it to because it's the least you deserve.

Take care mate,

Morning,

Well that was a sight for sore eyes. Brightened my day to know you are ok, and that you are still gamble free.

I too have not posted much this week, because I have been a busy bee, buzzing around sorting things out at home.

I at one point decided like many here to leave this site. I felt at that point that it had become another addiction. Felt compelled to write every day , and reply to every person that had taken the time to post to me. If I didn't I felt guilty like I was letting people down.

Now it is different, I believe I have found a balance that works for me. I post when I want , rather than post cause the world may come tumbling down if I do not.

I believe that this site works, but it is an individual thing. That everyone on here just wants each and everyone of us to stay gamble free, or offer support to each other if the going gets tough.

So no pressure, post when you want , daily , weekly monthly , just post on your own ( always great to hear you are ok) , or contribute to others , it's up to you.

All that truly matters is that you are ok.

Your friend as always,

Dusty xxxxxxx

Hi Castle,

I'm glad u r ok and still gamble free 🙂

Have a gr8 wknd and stay strong 🙂

Good Morning Castle

Sooo good to see that you are remaining strong

You are doing whats right for you and that is the most important thing!

Your support has helped soooo many and i for one want to say Thank you back as you have helped me loads.

I hope your daughter is going to have a special day for you today cause you sure deserve it!

Wonder if the diet and exercise are still happening or is it just still letting the pensioners getting the better of you at the pool ?

Keep Strong Castle and still around if you need us!

Great to hear your ok castle and no thoughts of a bet.

I was worried 4 u but not any more you need to recharge your batteries so take as long as you need mate.

Take care

Thanks again for the support

Another gamble free week no thoughts whatsoever which has got to be a good thing , mind is still full of thoughts and still can't work out what is right for me , I av a counselling session today so am hoping that's goin to make some sense and work out a way forward what's right for me

Work as been really good and can see a real difference in my performance feel so confident bout everything and all is running smoothly , not sure why and how this is

Really trying not to put no pressure on myself setting no expectations just simply enjoying each day as it comes

HI Castle,

Nice to see your post and even nicer to see its another gamble free week for you.

I hope the councelling starts to give you some answers ive found them really helpfull in understanding how i think and what i actually feel even though its buried sometimes under lots of other stuff.

I to have found the my performance in work has gone up, I find that now i dont have the worry and distraction of gambling I can focus this on constuctive things and its great seeing a successfull outcome.

Enjoy each day as it comes thats all that matters.

Take care.

Blondie day 60 🙂

Castle,

We continue to move forward side by side. We both haven't posted in about a week and then post at exactly the same time on the same day. Bizarre.

Glad to hear things are well with work. I hope everything else picks up and you enjoy a lovely weekend.

Tomso.

Yo,

Funny I was thinking bout you today, and thought I must post later, to check in and let you know absent friends are still being thought of.

Then your post appears , so great to hear you are ok, and work is not tooooo stressful.

Hope the counciling goes well, and helps you on the road of finding the answers you are looking for.

Take care my friend, I will be keeping them peeled for the next update .

Hi Castle,

Glad too see you are still remaining strong and life is not so stressful with work 😉

Hope the counselling helps and you get to where you want to be

Always thinking about you and hoping your ok so really good to see your post

Keep Strong

Smiling Lucy

All is running smoothly with you for one simple reason...

...you are not gambling.

We all know the stresses, worries and lies that gambling leads us to and by not going down that route right now takes away all of them.

Yes, we will still get stress in our lives but nothing compared with the stress caused by gambling.

Thanks again everyone hopefully a corner has been turned , had the most amazing session with my counsellor drained my brain for an hour and half poured every out of my remaining one problem in life , at 1st didn't av any real effect then bang 24 hours later everything hit home all my feelings turned to anger and could see everything very clearly

I now know what I need to do and that's just put every effort into sorting this out and av made that decision already I now just need to stick to it with no giving in with the help of counselling I now know I can do this

Every decision I now make in my life will be for me and what's best for me and if that upsets anyone else then so be it

Will keep posting but when I'm ready

Evening,

Wow , all through your journey you have been searching for some answers .

Think it is really great that you now maybe starting to unravel some issues in your life .

I hope this journey of discovery continues and once the counciling has finished you have found either some direction or some peace within your self.

I wonder if this is still something you wish to pursue as a career .

Keep well my friend,

Hiya Castle,

I wish you the best in getting through...it does take it out of you..so I would say.... eat well, have a few early nights etc and treats along the way. I spent quite a time with me, myself and I..and all those emotions. I'm out the other side now...thinking about you. Take care 🙂
