Hi Cheryl
(((((((C)))))))))
All I can say is what gambling did to me it destroyed me, but I won't let it do it again and nor will you.
Nothing I say will help at this moment, except you are not alone in this hell hole, I am right beside you
Please keep posting it will help you get rid of the S***e that we are in.
I wished there was an easy fix but there isn't.
Here for you

Forgotten what day I'm on, feel awkward posting when I have nothing positive to say. Did have a counselling assessment yesterday through this site. Was very impressed with the counsellor but odd being on Skype never used it before.
As said nothing positive to say and will keep all the cr☆P to myself as think it puts people off

Hi Cheryl,
Remember it's your recovery diary, to write how you feel whether it be positive or negative.
YOU do exactly what you want to do, it's your journey,
Look after yourself, write if you need to, don't write if you want to.
You are worth everything, remember that.
Take care and be kind to yourself.

Still here quietly reading posts, nervous and anxious. Can't really get my head around the way things are going in my life it's just horrible. Feel I always needed to be punished and now, not only me, but the whole family is and the burden is becoming too heavy.

Ty Suzanne for your continued support it honestly does help. One positive is have managed to get the washing machine fixed been out of action for 2 weeks. Back on 3 12hr nights from tonight so need to get my head space sorted so I can concentrate on work. Nothing else much has changed except no gambling still as currently it repulses me most of the time. Waiting for correspondence regarding the house so hate when the postman comes. At least respite tomorrow being Sunday.
Have counselling arranged via Skype for Thursday and hoping that will help my head.
Take care and best wishes
