Well Shaun thanks for being honest, pointless being here if you’re not going to be.
Mate it’s your life but you should know that a social bet to a compulsive gambler can be as destructive as small whiskey is to an alcoholic. It can be the start of a very slippery slope believe me.
You don’t need to apologise to me or any one else on here for gambling, you haven’t let anybody down, except maybe yourself and your family.
IF you get to the end of the month and that’s the only bet you’ve placed, then it’s not such a bad start, is it.
You managed five days mate. Five full days without gambling, something that might have seemed impossible once upon a time.
It really is as simple as getting through just one day at a time.
Did you bet online or at a bookies?
Don’t be too harsh on yourself, by the sounds of it though you do have a serious problem. Have you read my recent post “a horror story” if not, please do. Then bare in mind that once upon a time I wondered if a social bet would be ok.
Take care for now, I’m driving just stopped for a pee, otherwise I would have posted more.
