Day 103
GA meeting last night was hard going.
Several new members added to a group of around 25.
I've been attending for around 3 months and have seen many people come through the doors never to return.
Still dealing with the financial fall-out from my compulsive gambling. It's not easy at times for my partner. She is very supportive but quite rightly gets angry about the wasted money-I'm trying everyday to make amends and to regain trust.
Sometimes i get down or frustrated about our finances-let's not forget that were caused by me. It's me that's hurt her. It's me that's kept secrets.
Bit tired today after a difficult week. i won't gamble, i know that and that's a start.
Hi Gazza,
Thanks for your message. My problem has always been online gambling. I wouldn't ever walk into a bookies and hand over a fortune of cash but online never seems real - until the credit card lands on the door mat!
Stay strong. 100 days is fantastic.

Day 104 and 105 (15 weeks)
Stressful week last week.
Things settling down. Going out later for a family meal.
Tired but getting there.
Happy Father's day
Stressful weeks are OK to have, it's all part and parcel of life...
...as long as there is something to look forward to.
Enjoy your family meal, you deserve it.

Day 106
Thanks NT for your post
Feeling fine.
Busy but lovely family weekend.
Hope everyone is well
gazza. "busy lovely family weekend" sounds perfect to me fella, 106 days ago this did not seem possible today take it in your stride fella the good out weighs the bad. Well done from me. Duncs stepping forward never back.
Hi Gazza,
Thanks for your message. All seems to be fine thanks but had a real scare. I will definately take on board the closing your eyes way of keeping things in check. Like yourself the thought of losing my family is what scares me the most.
I hope that you are having a good day.
Take care and stay strong.
Dave
Day 107
Dunc and NM-thanks for your posts.
Feeling a bit down today.
Money is tight and it's my fault-compulsive gambling casts a long shadow.
Sadly i can't do much about it until i get paid next week.
