Staying strong

Well done. That's eccelent. That progress must make you feel good. 

I also love my football no matter who wolves beat lol.

Hi Dean

Kay ?

Hi kay 

Thanks for the kind words. I hope you are doing well. 

I believe everyday is a strong and positive day! I feel like a new me and its amazing. Just need to stay focused and strong.

How is your recovery going?? 

That's great to hear? was going well, managed 24 days then had a step back and it made me really Ill. I'm now 8 days GF again , i just want to be a better person and feel happy but at the minute I still have a lot of regret and guilt from what I did but i can only get better hopefully. 

Kay ?

Sorry to hear that Kay, I doubt for 1 minute you're a bad person, so no need to say you wanna be a better person!! We've made mistakes, we've owned up to our mistakes, it's now that we need to rectify and heal!!

Always here if you want a chat. 

We can do it ?

Thanks Dean!

Means a lot, 

I do feel like a bad person at the minute because I dont want to be this person but that's now in the past and i can recover. I am determined to do this and with each others support, we can both smash this! 

Means a lot to be part of such a kind, supportive community  

Kay ?

Well Done Dean !!!

You are better than the gambling. We all are. Keep going.

Apologies chezza I must of missed this yesterday and feel rude I didn't reply.. 

I do feel good but know there's a long way to go. 

I won't mention wolves I'll skip that part lol x

1 month!! 31 days without being hurt, ashamed and wasteful!

How a month can change someone's life!! I've gained so much, from family time, paying off debts, concentrating more and work but the best thing of all is I have myself back!! All my family and friends can hear it in my voice and change in my behaviour! My closet got opened and I cleared it out and I will never close that door again! This is still the start of my journey but its a good journey, beneficial journey and a safe and healthy journey!

As always thank you everyone on here and to anyone new, stay strong it does get better x

Row row row your boat with them two big oars

And if you pass a bookies than dont walk through the doors 

For your a man of honour and it is good to see

Your happy now and smiling cos your one month gamble free

Congratulations and respect Deano

Pleased to see you are doing so well Dean.

On Tuesday you will be 40 days away from your last gamble and that is a great milestone. I always believe the first 40 days to be the hardest but that being said, we must always be on our guard.

Wishing you every success as you continue on your journey of recovery which hopefully will be a great adventure for you and your loving family.

Proud of you my friend and watching your progress with respect.

Stephen
