Hi,
From Friday 26th Feb I’ve started this gamble free 365 day journey! No lotto and no anything! I’ve not been online gambling or at the bookies since January 20/21st so been getting on ok without that but wasn’t technically fully gamble free as must have bought half a dozen lotto tickets at least!
Don’t want to swap one addiction for another!
Got a trial shift at this bar near me next week I hope because then I can do extra work that will allow me to get my money back. This feels like getting my money back and it will help me stop thinking about all the things I could have done with the lost money. My GF says i shouldn’t put myself out to get this money back and I should just save up my current jobs money but if I work 2 jobs the money from job 2 is progress money and its money I wouldn’t have been earning if it wasn’t for this cock up as motivation so it’s not gonna be money I would have had anyways. If that makes sense!
The whole thing about realising you have a problem is
A-stopping
B-justifying it (life lesson)
C-fixing it! Having plans in place
