Hi Kin
Many thanks for your encouragement!!
Yes, March 27th. One year gamble free for me.
Things have got better since I quit gambling that is FOR SURE.
I would like to encourage anybody else who may read this post it can be done. If I can do it from the point I was at then ANYONE can.
I also know my work is far from complete and infact it won’t ever be complete. I still will need to keep my guard up and continue to work on myself and my behaviours.
As compulsive gamblers I have come to the conclusion that we must eventually face the facts.
We cannot control our gambling so we must STOP.
NEVER place the first bet.
There is NO such thing as a fun bet for us.
Further gambling will only make things WORSE.
On the plus side. There is so much more time to focus on positive things and our relationships with others. To get back to enjoying life without being distracted.
It is SO much better.
Best wishes.
