If i was a smoker, alcoholic, drug addict or other physical addict i would probably well out of the woods by now. Not that i am possessed day to day by gambling, but it is something i know is always at the back of my head. The thing is not to put thoughts into action and this is what i have learnt! Anybody reading this, JUST DONT DO IT, simple or not…. just dont….. get your life back. Happy hump day !

Keep up the good work Jonny. I know also life can be hard at times and gambling can be an escape, i suppose we all get a little down when we think how much we have set ourselves back, financially and in life. In any case, you and i both know gambling is not the solution, and it certainly does not make things better!

Good work, take care..

I dont miss that feeling of autopilot, where nothing else matters and sure whats one more bet, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 1000. Crazy level of recklessness and self hurt/emotional torment that gambling puts us through. I still choose not to gamble, because i know i will never win. I hope anybody who reads this post can do the same.

World events make me feel like my problems are very small. Life is busy but good, no gambling for me !

Week 42 done

[JayKay82]

Another week done. I hope everybody is having a good week, even though we’re only at the hump now !

Thanks for checking in Vera. Im not in any rush, just a few words for my weekly update.

Yes the poor people of Hueston are having a hard time of it and i hope they all get some relief very soon.

Only 12 weeks from one year. Of course i still think about gambling, not too regular to be honest, but these days i choose not to act.

[JayKay82]

Thanks for checking in Vera. Wish i had the time to persue legal action against betting sites. But thankfully they are the last thing on my mind these days.

Sitting at home on my own at the weekend and one of the on line accounts I used to bet on, and closed, emailed me. Disturbing on a few levels. Not exactly to me because I deleted it and got on with my day, it’s just I think these companies ruin lives and continue to be in your face afterwards. I don’t pay much attention to them these days truth be told, it’s people they keep sucking in I feel sorry for. In the age where everybody is connected every minute of every day, I think gambling needs to be regulated more than it currently is. Rant over. Have a good day.

Well done Johnny, 236 days is a great achievement. Keep up the good work and don’t “feed the need” !

Thanks Katryn for your post, as usual your a great support. I had started writing a big long post and my thread crashed. So i dont have the motivation to write it again. Anyway, hopefully anybody new or old to the site is on the right path and beating the urge to gamble.

[JayKay82]

Well done Johnny,
Great to see your still on the right path.

Sneaky little addiction gambling. Always hovering in the background. The more u stay away the less u do think about it. But it helps to always be on your guard. It is not harmless to have one last bet, or one more for that matter.
