I don’t panic much these days Shaun. I don’t understand your post though. Surely you should be making a commitment to a gamble free day as soon as you wake up.
It’s not about fooling yourself, more about not letting your addiction fool you.
Twelve days ago you commited not to gamble for this month, I don’t think you’ve let yourself or anyone down by not succeeding in that commitment. I think you will be letting yourself down though if you do not make a fresh commitment each and everyday not to gamble, and stick to it.
It’s hard sometimes just to get through one hour, never mind one day, let alone a month.
You will only gamble if YOU want to.
Imagine how good you will feel getting through the rest of this month without anymore gambling. What’s the worst that can happen if you don’t gamble? You might miss a big win? Lol lol I’m sure you’ve had plenty “winners” in the past, look where that’s got you.
Time to kiss it goodbye Shaun. If you want a better life, it’s yours for the taking. One day at a time it is possible for anyone and everyone.
Posting in the evenings is a cop out in my mind mate, two thirds of the day are gone. It says to me ” just in case I don’t make it through the day. ”
And that is fooling yourself.
