Thanks 4 the posts. Terrible result in the football tonite but i had to laugh just wernt good enough unfortunately and not one clinical striker in the squad so what can you expect bit like recovery if i dont keep my blocks rock solid well eventually im going to weaken so odaat im focused again. Think Harrys right counting days is risky and i cant afford to be taking risks.
I feel pretty good at this moment in time im getting very fit its good for my mental health etc. My sister wants me to do a bit of house sitting for her for a while her tenants move out on sunday and shel hardly get it rented out again b4 xmas so il stay in it a few nights a week for her im glad she asked me i would do anyting in my power to help my sisters God help them. Im very busy at the minute and im better that way. I feel pretty free im trying to live in the moment dont want to gamble today and thats all that matters il face tomorrow when it comes

Thanks ican. Have to admit im finding it harder to post partly due to it being a bit awkard typeing from a phone plus iv been on gambling recovery forums for nearly 2 years and maybe the novelty has wore off. This is the only forum i write on now but i still read on the other 1 from time to time. Feel im getting into a dangerous period 3 months gamble free odaat but historically im very vulnerable now forgetting the pain of heartbreaking slips getting a bit of a cash flow again etc etc. Unfortunately the bank sent me a letter yesterday with a new debit card to replace my cash card i rung them up saying that i had cancelled my debit card for a reason and can i not just use my cash card they said cash cards are getting done away with and my cash card wont work from the middle of january. Bit of a disaster really feel unsafe in my home again i need to get a plan because this has the potential to feck me up. Need to try and post more often cant be getting complacent i am continueing to keep my blocks tight usually leaving the house with no more than 60 quid and thats just incase i get a flat tyre. But im very well aware i can change my mind between two lamp posts so my blocks are very important just a pity the bank feels cash cards are a thing of the past they just dont realise that a good few people cant deal with debit /visa cards and its not just cgs it would also be shop acholics etc etc. But thats life and odaat i will have to try extra harder. Hope everyboday has a good gamble free weekend

Thanks cat your a star. Im ticking along nicely staying focused and just takeing it one day at a time. Its funny how you almost forget the pains of slips and long periods of your life were u were broke threw this addiction but at the same time its kinda imprinted in my brain that gambling just dosent agree with me. I was like danger mouse at times. Being an active cg is torture and just for today i have no intention of tortureing myself life can be hard enough at times without me pressing the self destruct button.

Think im just over 10 weeks gamble free not really counting days etc. Im doing pretty good odaat trying to make progress in loads of aspects of my life have hardly had a minute lately iv been that busy. I know of somebody who has had a slip after over 18 months of it and who was absolutely flying in recovery i never seen the slip coming at all. It shows we can never be to careful with this disgusting disease whether were 1 week or 20 years off it were all really only off it today. Im thankful to be gamble free today its very good for my well being and thats a fact!

Plenty of times my hearts broke with this disgusting disease so im going to make the most of how im feeling at the moment trying to liue in the moment and enjoy the simple things in life. I use to laugh at my ma when she said the best things in life are free. Im up to walking 3 hours some days when i have the time i love it. Maybe il walk on every beach in ireland that could be a challenge for me and although petrols not cheap its cheaper than gambling thats for sure. Great result in the footie last night always a bonus. No thoughts of gambling thank God but sure they can come from nowhere especially when i have to go shopping haha so il just keep ticking along and keep my head down and take no risks

I coudnt post this last few weeks i musnt of had my settings right on here with the new change over or maybe it was because i post on my mobile. I wasnt really sure and i was starting to worry i wouldnt be able to post again. So its good to be able to post again not that i post that much but i missed being able to post when i couldnt. I like the new forum i think its great when you press new posts you skip to the end saves scrolling. I got my oil yesterday took a lot of satisfaction in that. Im doing ok taking nothing for granted and trying not to over analyse but at the same time im trying to limit what money i carry on me at any time. Few worries within the family but hopfully everyting will work out. Trying very hard to be patient in every day life and treat people with respect at all times. Lifes not easy but im hopfully getting there one day at a time.

I havnt been able to post on here this last couple of weeks was starting to worry i wouldnt be able to post again and even get the chance to say goodbye to Ed and Vera etc so great to be able to post again you only miss something when its gone. The new forum is growing on me. Im 8 weeks bet free i think, im getting oil tomorrow a mate got a new tele last week he gave me his old 1 for free wouldnt take anyting of me its making a big difference to my home. Im getting there slowly but surely 1 day at a time. God bless
