Deep breathes today as i thought about gambling, deep breathes and letting the thoughts go as i thought it through while walking back to my car after shopping .

Hi Kpat i’m still waiting for my C.B.T. treatment to start with the N.P.G.C so i’ve been doing lots of self help in the meantime like getting the book. I am getting there slowly but surely i know it’s an old adage but one day at a time does work .

[micky]

Sounds good to me Vera 3 things you know you can do like me you have never given up . Once you give up you lose everything so that is and never was an option for me 🙂

[micky]

I never thought i could do it Vera but Stepchange changed all that they put a proper budget into place and were realistic about how much i need to have left each month for bills etc, and when unexpected bills have come along or financial changes all i had to do was inform them and it was re-adjusted for that month. They are going to help me with a new budget when i’m debt free as well.

I’m continuing reading my C.B.T book and in it, it talks about having a schedule which makes real common sense especially for me being a shift worker it also talks about doing things you used to enjoy ,have a go at doing them again if you still don’t like doing them move on to something else. Lastly my own way of dealing with everyday things is i have an exercise, daily spends and to do diary . which i can look back on and see positives of my progress to be being debt free and happier in my life once again. 🙂

So true what Sad69 says it’s only a small part of us . A great way of looking at it as a whole 🙂 , today i am watching f1 and it’s great when a brit driver is leading 🙂

Taking Vera’s advice and am going to come on G.T. more often, been reading C.B.T. for dummies, it’s amazing how you can change your thought process to any given situation when you stop and think about it if not sure stop and write your thoughts down and then evaluate them. It gave an example of a situation where someone shouted at their partner and then 10 different responses from ten people, just showing how how differently we re-act ourselves to things. I over-reacted to something at work yesterday when i really should have thought about it first .

1. it’s a dry day i’m going for a walk.

2. O.d.a.a.t. iv’e just been reminded of it .

3. patience .

[micky]

My patience is wearing thin now regarding the NPGC. it has been over a year since i self referred , when i finally had my initial appointment on july the 8th they said 2 months until treatment will start , i phoned up after two months and was told end of september now when iv’e e-mailed them today they have e-mailed back asking me when i referred ???????? UPDATE : They rang me about 4.30 hrs saying they couldn’t give me a date yet but i’m high up on the list 🙂

[micky]

I have mentioned this before there isn’t any help through your G.P. so when i was seeing my doctor last week i mentioned that it would be a good idea to have something in the surgery that points C.G’S to some sort of help, i mentioned, G.A, GAMCARE, GORDON MOODY AND the C.N.W.L- N.P.G.C. She said she would sort something out 🙂

[micky]

I will Vera 🙂

Bit of a scare on monday , right hand side of my face drooped, spotted by two work colleagues. Went to surgery at work, then my own G.P’s surgery who sent me to A and E at my local hospital for a C.T scan and E.C.G , Blood tests, everything okay although blood pressure high. They say something happened but their not sure what . Fortunately not a stroke. Next an M.R.I Scan which i should get in the next few weeks. Although i’m sure i’m fine it’s made me think over the last couple of days if my lifestyle was to blame . 🙂

[micky]

Another payment made towards my debts 2 days ago, sounds a bit daft but it’s not wasted money it’s another step towards being debt free, not long now . Watching davis cup tennis at the moment and looking forward to the rugby tonight in between i’m picking my son up from school so a nice day so far. Fortunately or hopefully fingers crossed my treatment with the NPGC starts soon end of this month , so i will be doing that before my debts are paid off. I do have targets and timelines i want to keep 🙂

[micky]

1. Making the right choices.
2. Working out.
3. Being honest with myself about things i cannot change.

[micky]

Hi kin your self help and willpower is something with which you should be very proud i am very much inspired by it.
