    HI Vera i get what your saying it’s a bit like the dry drunk syndrome , your still a drunk only dry for the time being. All we can do is try and stay dry for as long as we can , hopefully forever. As you have proved we can do it for long lengths of time and others like charles have managed to break free for ever, someday hopefully we can all be like him. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Hi Lizbeth i’m impressed you have worked out how long before your debt free it gives you something to aim for and you are budgeting for basic things and treating yourself from time to time. Concentrate on you and your grand daughter and you will get there . ๐Ÿ™‚

    STOPTOBER day 24 and a week to go until i give my ยฃ31 to my chosen charity. My everyday posts are boring i know but they are important to me to keep reminding myself of why im doing this (FOR ME MAINLY) . I’m going out later for some exercise which i know really helps my thought patterns. Yesterday i donated blood , maybe if we can do one good thing a day it will help us to enjoy a better life .

    Hi drat you have certainly had a rough time throughout your short life and i totally sympathise with you. It’s good your so close to GMA i have heard thats the place to go if your serious about quitting this horrific addiction. Also if your serious about getting yourself out of debt go through “STEPCHANGE” they are a free debt management company who will guide you through everything , you make a payment to them every month and they pay your creditors. Hope this helps.
