Yesterday blew over 600....
Today I start another online diary.
Got over a serious health condition back in March, that took willpower! So have to apply that mentality to beating the demon within that has plagued me for the last 22 years.
Have to do this as I can't stand all the lying anymore that surrounds my chronic problem and all the other feelings associated to when I gamble seriously out of control.
Work now for 3 days, never a problem there, it's when i come back and get paid. So Friday I will have to come back and write and read more.
Hi yet again
Well done on admitting the problem and for signing up. From what you have already said you've overcome something in your life already so keep telling yourself that you can do this.
All the old cliche's are relevant such as take one day at a time etc.
I'm exactly the same as you whereby at work I am fine, but home on the weekends when there is sport is difficult.
Set yourself targets to remain gamble free (1 week, 1 month etc). You will feel great once you achieve them.
And remember that you can never win when gambling. If your not losing money you are losing precious time that you could be spending doing worthwhile things.
Good luck
Craig
