Great to read that you’re still gambling free on day 8.

You’ve done brilliantly to get through Friday, which historically has been your main gambling night.

One thing I have learned on here this past week is to not think too far ahead. Concentrate on resisting the urges here and now, take one step at a time or one day at a time. We can overload by worrying about tomorrow or even beyond that.

Like you, I’m still looking for answers and trying to fully educate myself on this addiction, but from reading posts on here, there’s absolutely no doubt that we can control this addiction. Speaking personally, I think I will always be a compulsive gambler or have the potential to be compulsive gambler and I think if I maintain that mind set, it will help prevent me from being complacent.

Keep it going Gee and take care.

Charlster.
