Don’t know if you remember me. I joined around the same time as u. Can’t believe how fast the time has gone. Haven’t wrote on here for ages. Well I can’t say I’ve been gamble free like you.. I envy you for that. BUT… I have made progress. I have slipped a couple of times but they’ve been small slips. I’m nearly out of debt and am now able to live life instead of being sucked up by this antisocial disease. Point is.. When I slip I don’t beat myself up but just tell myself off.. But clearly I am no where near in the same league as you.. I don’t want to gamble. I hope one day I can talk myself out of an incredible urge. I’ve avoided even reading posts from here. My email alerts me at least 5 times a day and I delete them all.. Kinda so I don’t have to be reminded of how horrible I felt a year ago. But I decided to look at your post just out of curiosity as I know we were both in the same place a year ago. It’s good to hear how well you’ve done.. I’m glad I looked. It’s woke me up to the reality of how closely I need to keep an eye on myself.
Best wishes
