Well done in taking that first step Lee. You'll find a lot of support here, I know I have. It makes things that little bit easier in starting that gambling free life we dream of. I can't offer you much advice (it's still very early days in my recovery - 6 to be exact) but I would say have a read through other diaries when you get a chance. There's some very good advice and a lot of inspiration to to found. Good luck to you and stay strong

so day 3 and guess what i gambled again, only a small amount but its still some. I have decided its due to my mental health the reason i gamble but its a vicous loop. I am unable to go outside but do it at a push which is another problem occupying myself.
Even blocking myself off them didnt help i just went somewhere else,STUPID ONLINE GAMBLING!!!! it should be banned like the fruit machines.
i come from south shields if anyone knows any good services around there could u leave a msg thnx
