Here I go again, am sat here in tears I have absolutely no self control, I have blown money today that I don't have again, it is my little girls birthday too....what a complete loser I am!!! I don't know what to do so have decided to come back to this site and try again. I feel like I am at rock bottom and want it all to end.
So tomorrow will be day 1 (again). I am feeling determined to beat this addiction once and for all x

Thanks Suzanne you're a great support. Day 1 today, been awake since the early hours worrying about my finances, I feel physically sick! I have to keep telling myself that I must not ever gamble again as this will only make matters much worse...I cannot ever win as I can never stop.... I'm going out for the day now so will check in later or tomorrow, stay strong guys J x
Day 3 today, had a busy weekend so have kept my mind occupied. Still taking a day at a time and keeping in my mind I cannot win because I cannot stop.... J x

Thankyou castle & Suzanne, Day 9 today. Had lots of urges as Sunday is always a boring day and I'm home alone with the kids, been out for a walk and been to the shops, started preparing the Sunday roast but thoughts keep going to gambling, I have all the blocks in place though so makes it very difficult for me. Going to watch some TV now while the kids are out playing with their friends. Must remember I can't win because I can't stop.... J x
