Jezi You have not lost the three weeks gamble free you achieved , nor have you lost he lessons you learned from those weeks .
You have learned that you can go a considerable length of time without gambling .
Your slip has taught you some important lessons about yourself and your addiction.
Progress not perfection is what I aim for and you have definitely made progress.
It is incredibly disappointing when we slip but one of the best pieces of advice I have had on here came from Harry – he said a slip does not need to become a full blown relapse .
Pick yourself up Jezi and remind yourself of the days you didn’t gamble. This is a hard addciton to beat but you will do it Xx
