No gambling for me today. August 14th

[2017shaun]

Just for today. I WILL NOT GAMBLE

[2017shaun]

Have not gambled today. One day at a time

[2017shaun]

Thanks for the support mate. I am taking it one day at a time. Maybe the pact was a wrong idea for me at the start of it. I’m still learning and taking all the information given on board. Well done on not gambling this year you have clearly made the right choices and I hope you get many more years the same. I also hope in how ever long it takes I can be in the same boat, saying the same to someone else. It’s not that I feel there is a chance I might gamble. It’s the fact I don’t want to let my self down if I do. I am trying maybe could try harder. But I eventually want rid of the thoughts I get. Slowly but surely I’ll reach my target just like yourself and others.
The best thing that would happen if I did? I would have had my fix temperaly.
The worst thing if I did? It would try and suck me back in
The worst thing if I didn’t? Nothing at all it would be another day forgetting all about gambling.
I’m not here to lie on my posts (lying to myself) me posting is setting myself rules or barriers boundaries even.
I’m off out going to a ” guffalo spotting” place with the kids for the afternoon now.
Cheers take care

Your right I should commit from when I wake but a couple of times I had posted In the mornings and gambled later on in the day. So for my own recovery I’m trying to find the best routine for myself. As vera said previously some members found these pacts to be doing more worse than good. I was going well leading up to August but then maybe taken a few steps back.
I’m still in early days gord. I’m never going to wake up feeling a different person or changed over night. It’s going to take some time. You know that mate.

[2017shaun]

Dont panic gord im here. I’m going to start posting on the evenings when the day is over. Can’t fool myself that way.
Gamble free today 11/10/17
Cheers mate

The numbers you pick, random or not
The higher the stake, the bigger the pot
Odd or even, red or black
The dealers are trained, it’s part of their act
The cameras are watching to see your next move
Waiting to see how much money’s on you
No more bets, the wheel has spun
I went with friends and it was all for fun
But now on my own the nightmare has begun

I used to be the same roulette mad. When I would loose and have to go back to work knowing I’m working today n days after for f all. My advice… stay in work at all times. Make food/ take food. Don’t take any money with you. At all. Then you simply cannot.
There use to be a sandwich ladie that come round. I hated not having money on me whether it’s 50p for a chocolate or couple ££ for a sandwich. I spoke with her about my gambling n she let me run a bill to £10 or 15 20 ECT so I didn’t have to run the bank an end up loosing 100 pound for a 3£ sandwich. It use to kill me inside what a mug I was.
Doesn’t matter how proud or what role your job is, if your work mates try take the piss. Does not matter. The amount of times I went all day with no food or money because of the roulette on my lunch break. Bus money went in the roulette. Use to have to walk miles.
Eventually I stopped taking money / cards. Has to be done. Go with NOTHING BUT YOURSELF, FOOD AND WATER.
