Muito bem, IDI no seu tempo livre para jogar quase 8 meses agora, e obrigado por sua postagem no meu tópico, e sim novas atividades são obrigatórias como um substituto para o tempo que teria sido gasto no jogo 🙂

[Nick]

Goed gedaan IDI met je gokvrije tijd nu bijna 8 maanden, en bedankt voor je post op mijn draad, en ja, nieuwe activiteiten zijn een must als vervanging voor de tijd die aan gokken zou zijn besteed 🙂

Bravo IDI na vašem slobodnom vremenu za kockanje već skoro 8 mjeseci, i hvala vam na objavi na mojoj temi, i da, nove aktivnosti su nužne kao i zamjena za vrijeme koje biste potrošili na kockanje 🙂

Well done I-D-I on your gamble free time almost 8 months now, and thank you for your post on my thread, and yes new activities are a must as asubstitute for the time that would have been spent gambling 🙂

Hi Steev, thanks for the post on my thread , yes i didn’t really explain, i should have said get out of the bad habits like gambling and get into the good replacement habits of whatever we replace it with , it’s going to be different for many of us depending how and what we gamble on . While lockdown is on and we have the opportunity with no excuses to think about how we can change our habits , hope this makes sense.

[Nick]

Lockdown working for me : It’s working for me because the bookmakers are closed so i can’t sneak into one after driving many miles to one where i hope they don’t recognise me and i hope its working for others too, once we realise how much money we are saving we don’t go back to the habit and have new habits formed by the time this is all over.

It’s been a while now since i have posted, so thought i would touch base, in the last 100 days i have only gambled 12 times . 12 times too many i know but an achievement for me , basically through putting barriers up .

[Nick]

Hi Dazza the multi operator self exclusion scheme is free to join, it will exclude from all bookmakers you choose in your area / and as far as possible you can think of it’s number is 0800-294-2060 . Hope this helps . 🙂

Moving on and life is good, yes there are bad days but not compounded by the come down of a gamble frenzy like in the past. Life throws enough crap at us without the added extra burden of that. All members both old and new whether your in recovery or re-lapse keep it going , never give up giving up. 🙂

[Nick]

Your support is very and always welcome.

I’m now 100 days into recovery, never thought i could ever get this far my barriers have been a massive help. Never ever stop giving up hope , i didn’t and look where i am now . 🙂

[Nick]

Today i learned that i am not. : I absolutely love that idi , thats a brilliant way of letting out how you feel. 🙂

[Nick]

I’m now onto day 71 and my barriers have certainly helped me achieve this milestone, i’m enjoying life and although i do have bad days they come and go like the good ones . Just to remind folk i did lose thousands and thousands ( and more owing so much i had to sell my house and down size to a much less attractive part of town ) , then i continued to run up debts , i did lose relationships, and i did hit rock bottom when i went to prison . Now i have money in the bank, food in the fridge , and peace of mind when i wake up in the morning , it hasn’t been and isn’t easy , everyday is a fresh challenge to stay in recovery . I hope anyone starting out in recovery reads the above and gets some hope from it , it can be done .
