Today, i will not gamble.

Everyone is different, but what Blondie says worked for me, where willpower didn't. Have you tried a blocking program, as you were posting of earlier?

Not yet but i think its my only option, betfilter and self exclusion is the way forward for me.

So its day 6 for me and so far i havent gambled, Its been so very hard especially with all this euro footy on but iv found it enjoyable to actually sit down and watch it without losing my wages on it! Theres only one winner this week and thats me! Keep fighting the disease people, we will triumph.

Chalky 6 days

I know i should write on this daily, yesterday was day 1 for me again and i succeeded, i think just for today i wont gamble! Come on people, together we can do this! Iv seen Flaggs advice on another page about rewarding yourself maybe a £1 a day if u dnt gamble, im gonna try this!

welcome back chalky

I recently tried a weeks trial with bet filter at home and its so helpful! My partner was a bit mythed though when she couldnt check her lottery numbers! For anyone out there struggling with this disease as i am blocking software is the way forward! Im not sure how to do it at work though, if i get blocking software for work will it stop my computer or my whole companies? does anyone have the answer!?

Good luck everyone, keep strong.

i think that is a really positive step the blocking, it also shows your in it for the long haul

Hi all,

Iv had a bit of a relapse recently and have found ways to gamble!!! Loser! Today is day one again.

Things to remember

1. I will never get rich from the spin of an online slot.

2. My family are suffering because i cant pay the bills ontime.

3.Keep strong and focused.

4. I could live comfortably on my wage so why do i choose to blow it! Live comfortably!!

I just want to be normal, thats all. how the hell did we get ourselves into this. theres only one person to blame.

Goodluck everyone

Anyone know if theres a G A group in cornwall?

guess the way i look at it is every day is day one, since its the only day that matters.

So here i am, a struggling compulsive gambler back to square one again. Tomorrow is day 1 again.

Chalky,

Just keep going, you will finally get there, the fact that you are still being honest enough to record your relapse means that you want to do this. Move forward from this and take it one day at a time, you WILL suceed my friend.

Hi Chalky
