To get away from my addiction i started to do an easy thing. I went to supermarket and i bought a piggy-bank. I called it “william pig”. I made my self a betting coupon worth 20£ and i put the money in my “william pig”. At the end of the day my selections were wrong but i won 20£. I’ll do it again for a month with a diffrent amount of money to see if i can save enough for a holiday. But there is the thought “what if my selections are right?”
Yesterday was the day when i said “i have to stop gambling”. So i closed all my online betting accounts. But my friends talk about betting everytime. I had a day off at work so i left the house, took the train and travel all day to see old friends. I told them about my addiction and to be honest was a relief. Was ok, i didnt bet but the urge was there. And i have to thank every one here as well for their posts cos every-time when i was thinking to bet i was reading their stories. For today i want to go in a bookie shop and deal with my urge of betting. I have to work as well and there is the worse part of it cos everyone at work gamble but I want to believe there is a hope for me after all to stop gambling.
