    A very, very tough day today. A broken car hasn’t helped matters and gives me the feeling I want to go online and try and win the money for it. However, the urge, the big urge was resisted and I raise a glass (double concentrate Orange Squash) to another day of being gambling free. Here’s to tomorrow. . .

    Well today is day 2 for me. I walked past a bookies with £400 in my pocket and a massive urge to just “pop my head in the door”. Thank fully I managed to resist and deposit the money in to my bank account.
    The easiest thing for me to do would be to surrender my finances to a loved one, however, after a lot of thought I have decided not to do this. I know this will probably go against the grain of what people suggest and have done in the past but if I am to beat this I want to do this with only myself to depend upon. Day 2 is nearly done and dusted….. here’s to another day of not gambling.

    Thank you for your reply SaraJ 🙂 I’m so pleased that I have taken this step forwards and will be approaching this addiction head on to over come it…My vice has always been online slots predominantly but have used FOBT’s in betting stores to feed my addicition when I had self excluded from them. I am excited for a gamble free future…
