Day-945
Just dropping in as I’ve not shared or said anything for a few weeks… Today marks another day 1 ✅ for 945 days gambling free in my sobriety!!! Not sure if it’s just me but feels like gambling adverts and communications has started ramping up again with sports and still getting backing from ex pros promoting gambling by featuring in the adverts…Â
A little frustrating but it’s a choice and one they make.
My choice is to continue down the path of being gambling free and it is one that I am proud of and one that I am happy with and happy because I have made and live that choice, by no means has it been easy but it has gotten easier.Â
That’s it for now, just wanted to drop in.
Â
Speak again soon and stay gambling free!!
Day-991
Today marks another day one.. Today I celebrate 991 days in my sobriety to gambling.Â
9 more day ones away from a big milestone and one that I am excited about and proud about!
I am near to celebrating 1,000 day ones of my sobriety… If I look and think back to where I was 991 days ago, oh my how different my mindset and behaviours and everything about me.. I am proud of who I am today and where I have been in these 991 days.
Heres to all my goals and milestones to come and those demons we battle against!!
Speak again soon!
Day-999
Its the Eve before the biggest milestone to date in my sobriety to gambling…. Somebody call the police I’ve just checked off 999 days of being gambling free!!!!
I am so lucky and privileged to be here right now. Love to my strong centre in my partner and courage that I have shown to believe in myself to get here to where I was…
Tomorrow will mark a huge milestone but it will become the first of many huge milestones!!! It is all about the 1 day tick offs… And today I tick off 999 day 1s!!! Feeling pleased as fooooooking punch with myself but looking forward to the other goals and milestones I have set ahead of me!!

Day-1-095 (3yrs !!!!!!!!)
So today marks 3yrs ✅ ticked off in my sobriety to gambling!
Still so so so long to go but wow… I remember 3yrs ago sitting at the dining room table crying from being ashamed… Crying from the disappointment I felt in myself… Crying for what I’d done to my partner… Crying from how I’d made my partner feel… Crying from all the lies, the deceit, all the hiding, all the money lost, wasted, borrowed & taken… Crying from all the time stollen from my partner and our children… I could not have felt any lower about myself or what a piece of excrement that I was… There’s rock bottom and then there’s a million levels below that and I was lower.
BUT… Today I am not that man, person, father or partner and I couldn’t have done it without the love, faith and trust of my then girlfriend and now fiancée (oh yeah I proposed Christmas Eve this year 2022 & she said yes)!!.
Yes I have put things in place and I have had to live this life of sobriety and want to be better but my partner is the rock and centre of my world and I don’t think I would be here today without her.
So I proudly ✅ tick off another day 1 today but this day 1 marks 3yrs and I am very proud of where I started to where I am!!
Happy Christmas and wishing a Happy New Year to all..Â
This is an especially difficult time of year for us people with addictions so please speak up and speak out before wanting to act up or act out!
SPEAK AGAIN SOON!!…

Day-1155
Wow it’s been a while since I last posted, like 2months…
Still ✅ ticking off those days 1’s and currently I am at day 1155 in my sobriety to gambling and still loving life away from that dark filth.
I was made redundant from work mid January and have been on job hunt (still looking) so that’s where my head space has been, getting back into employment and provide for my family…. A few irons in the fire and looking promising at present so I will continue to put the good energy out there into the universe and good things will happen!
Speak again soon!
Day-1285
Nothing has changed on the gambling front… Still strong in my sobriety to gambling!!
But I have just added another daughter to my Wolfpack family with my lady… Who is also now my fiancée!!!  At the start on my recovery I’d never have thought I would be 1285 days gambling free… grow stronger and stronger with my lady… Have not 1 but 2 daughters come into the world… Very blessed!
Just takes time and one day at a time. ??❤️
Speak again soon x
