Tnx, First Aid, Del girl and Ex gambler Jeff..
May I point out that the initials of your names spell.. D. E.f...And thats exactly what I have been lately, and blind, to the fact that I have had major issues surrounding my health, fitness lifestyle and status...However, with your support and my own willpower I will beat this horrible addiction....yet again.
Tnx again.
Easy.
How are things with you Easy?
I know that personally I have been wallowing in my own self pity and ignoring my own mistakes for too long. Read another diary yesterday that many are following and commenting on at the moment. Compared to that you and me have certainly got an easy life mate--I for one hope it has inspired me to move forward and give thanks for what I have got rather than moan at my failings.
All the best Mate
Stumper
Thanks Stumper always good to see you on the wall....I still believe you helped me through all of this...and I care to take a look at this diary....If I can find out who it is that is?
Easy.
Page 52 of my diary brings me to tears almost...
I cant believe what I acheived in the end...and I feel worse than ever....
I will start to fight for my life now... I WILL NOT GIVE IN.....I WANT TO BECOME SUCCESFUL...
NRLY 2 YEARS LATER

Easy

Hey Easy,
Good to chat with you on the chat room earlier. I didn't get a chance to say but have you done any work for agencies in hospitality?? When i spent some time in London i was getting loads of work through agencies and half the places i went offered me a job because I done the job well. Just a thought anyway.
Keep strong in this fight against gambling and look forward to catching up soon in another chat room
All the best
Keith
Tnx guys...
I had power cut...so, I lost connection yesterday..No everything was fine...No bad feelings...I went to town today alone and I had urges...but reflected on the situation and had an open mind to the fact that I would eventually lose...Even if I started to win that is 🙂
So, I guess sheer determination and willpower will keep me sane in the struggle ahead!!
Easy.
I want to beat this addiction once and for ALL!!
I am determined...GAMBLING IS RUBBISH IN THE END IT WILL ONLY DESTROY YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND LEAD YOUR COUNTRY INTO RUIN!!!
Personally I don't think we ever beat this addiction we just learn to live with it and make sure we know where it is at all times.
Take care
Smiler watch this space....
Easy.
2 years I have had this diary...and ok I been a naughty boy...But 3 grand in two years on gambling is much better than 12 grand in 1.5 years...So, I definitely have reduced my gambling problem.... Now, it is time to completely stop...and never ever go back....
I will post my original post and remind myself how it all beagan and saved me so much heartache!!
DAY 1 FEB 23RD 2010
I want to become successful and I am going to do it with your help...and I hope I can help you guys too..I know what you are going through and this is it ..DAY1..of the rest of my life..thank you for this oppurtuntity to make my voice heard..because it takes one to know one and this is the medicine we all need..fight fire with fire..I think this will help..because I really do need support...I dont want to remember how much I have spent but I hope I can just move forward..and post daily with my progress and feelings..urges e.tc...thanks guys!....update soon I need some sleep as I never slept much last nite...hopefully I will be feeling refreshed tommorow!... WE CAN FACE THIS!
I want to just say my life is totally different since the 18 months tht I stopped... I would never had been able to do any of the things I have done or acheived...It is all because of abstinence from gambling...
It really was the best and worst time of my life....Just like the feeling you get when you go to place that first bet, with the prospect of winning...You see the reality is, in the end we ALL lose..... I just hope you enjoy what you have....
Hi diary off to the gym...to release some stress!!
Easy life.
