Really struggling today but instead finding a way to gamble i decided to come here and say it out loud instead lol 19 days and counting
Say it loud say it proud 19 is a great start i also noticed with my own recovery my last major urgue was few months back and in past i would have acted on that urgue however i was fortunate i was aware of it and got the support i needed at the time i am still learning about this addiction as i am faces with new challenges i have recently hit 1000 days bet free so its a positive start
Hi Helly
You did the right thing. First month is really tough and a lot of white knuckling
Yes still feeling it today but yesterday it passed eventually so im sure it will today fingers crossed
Are you able to take a walk or do some shopping or read a book to bring yourself back to the present ?
@lp5vut869c I've just been shopping still feeling it bit tired today finding it hard to motivate myself today
Hi Helly
It's ok to just be okish some days. Are you on your own or do you have someone you can talk to ?
I'm with my partner but he has mental health issues so I dont really like to worry him but I did just mention it just now that I had been coming on here last couple days as I was struggling he said I was doing the right thing just dont want to go back wards in my eyes 3 weeks doesn't sound long bu t I've come to far to fail already
Hi Helly
Just keep going. Good days and bad days
Affected by gambling?
