I know this isn’t exactly a “success story” but for the first time In a long while I have gone a full week without any form of gambling, especially online slots. I put stops on my accounts using gamstop but I haven’t even had the urge to ask family members to borrow theirs.
mom finding watching streamers livestream gambling a way of still getting my fix, but not losing any money myself while still having that buzz. Tomorrow is payday and for the first time since I started, I’ve planned out all my outgoing, I’m going to transfer any extra money out of my account and I’m going to look at start getting the money I owe back to the people I owe it too and then start to save. This web page has really helped me become more positive, continue going to the gym and I’m really already starting to feel so much better about it all. I really do believe I am going to sort myself out and find myself again??
Hi, don't play it down, stopping gambling is hard when we are addicts so any time gamble free is a success. What I say to people is remember that we all start at day 1 and take it from there
All the best
