Day 52
Keeping busy and gf
Great 5 see you on day 52 and staying strong. To deal with urges I ask myself 'will depositing make things better?' Don't mean to sound patronising but I know how you feel take care S x
Day 55
Thank you. You are exactly right. Need to put my sensible hat on when I get an urge and remind myself half my problems are due to gambling
You're really cracking it on day 55, do it for yourself because you're worth it! S x
Day 56
Not sure what has come over time today. Really tempted!
Day 57
So proud I resisted last night although had to get a payday/short term loan today to just pay council tax in time. Feels like I can’t get out the circle of debt
Day 66
Still gf. Urges have been less lately which Is good. Still financially emotionally and generally stressed though
Day 72
Not had many urges lately which is good. Not to say that I am safe
Day 76
Feeling good but that’s when you have to be careful. OH still gambling and sometimes when I see him I’m missing it but I know it’s no good for me financially emotionally personally
Glad you're still going strong, I really admire your strength and commitment. Knowing and acknowledging the damage of that first '£20 want hurt' thought is key isn't it? Enjoy the GF road, take care Sx
Day 77
Thank you. I’m trying to be strong. It really isn’t worth it. And £10 is never £10 it spirals so quickly
Day 78
Staying strong.
Over 80 days now, go for it! Haven't checked in all week as have been working flat out! Take care Sx
Day 85
I know the feeling but keeping busy is good. It doesn’t help the captcha every time especially on mobile bit off putting
Still gf but had a few fleeting urges
