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

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 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

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
