VilcsogabiParticipant
Hi Kin.
Thank you for these teaching stories, they are remindig me of buddhist teachings, and i liked to think myself as a shaolin monk sometimes.
When times are hard i imagine myself retreating into my meditation cave somewhere in the himalaya and have a little converation with myself, to clear my head and remind myself which way is the right direction .
Only way is up.
VilcsogabiParticipantThank you for your reply,i am glad that it made you feel this way.Your reply has the same effect on me,we have to truly accept who we are,and focus on how we can move forward.
Surely it is a rocky road ahead,but what a good feeling it is when you start to see progress.
The downfalls are always hard,and each time is harder to look in the mirror,and deal with the consequences, but there is always something to take away from it.I keep reminding myself what does it feel like sitting in that dark hole, and how does it feel like on the bright side.
It will all get better, let’s stay strong!
VilcsogabiParticipantHi guys!
It has been a long wile since i last wrote here.
I can say i am very happy because im doing fine,since my last post has not touched any form of gambling,and luckily the craving is avoiding me too.
I had a 6time therapy session with CNWL gambling clinic,and i must say it was really good as im not a big fan of group therapy but this was a one on one and the person i talked to was really nice and helped me a lot.
I learned a lot about why do i gamble and how can i resist,and it felt really good just to talk to someone without being judged.
I can only recommend it to all of you guys,who are having difficulities.
I can not say im healed now and everything is fine,but i feel much stronger and positive about myself,and im sure i will carry on on the road i started.
Everything is good,life is happy again!VilcsogabiParticipantThank you! i will try my best!
Congrats to your 30 days, it must be almost 60 now!!
keep it up!VilcsogabiParticipantHi everybody!
I have to apologize , i found it really hard to find the time to come here again,and continue my progress on a gamble free life.
I am currently sitting in one of the open groups which is empty..it would have been nice to have a little chat,but at least i have time to write here!
So my last post was 3 weeks and 5 days ago, haven’t touched any slots, betting slips or scratchcards ,nothing,so i am really happy that i was behaving.
Keeping yourself really helps, lots of work, had some good days off with my girlfriend, went to visit Leeds Castle,spent two days there, sleeping in a tent, which was bloody cold lol, trying go ape for the first time(you know the tree top adventure) had really good fun!
The best thing is i hadn’t really been thinking about gambling,sometimes day go by without even thinking about it…sometimes i get the voice in my head, go just a little bet, it will be okay , but i know i must NOT!
It is funny actually, sometimes i am thinking im going mental, having an argument with myself.
I am reading what other people are posting,and it is just terrible, how gambling can destroy lives…what is the most disgusting for me ,that all that so called online casinos and betting shops how disgustingly forcing it onto people with their advertisement, i mean come on,i can’t use the internet without having to close countless pop up advertisements, or when you watching tv late at night there is a casino advert every 2 minutes, it should be all banned in my opinion,why they can’t do the same like they did with the cigarette adverts?because its not bad for your health?i think it is 10 times worse than smoking….
Anyway , that is all from me know, been a long day, tomorrow there is a new one, i will stay strong!! -
