Officially 1 year today off a belter. What a buzz that is. Never thought I’d have achieved it. Far from easy but the strength and support from those around has helped me massively. Here’s to many more years
Been a while since my last post. Under 1 month to go before i reach 1 year off a bet. Certainly hasn’t been easy but just have to keep that focus as to why I stopped in the first place. Starting up my own business which has given me real purpose. Just need to be strong.
8months to the day off of a bet. Not going to meetings as regular but still feeling strong and dealing with things in ways I know I can. My motivation is keeping my family together and knowing my daughter doesn’t need to see how I behaved when I was on a bet!
7 months with no gambling. Tough 7 months. Dealing with bereavement, work issues, family issues and the fight to stay off a bet. Dealt with everyone of them because I’ve found the strength to do so. Anything is achievable. You will find the strength if you really want to succeed
Another good meeting tonight. 3 more new members. Keeps it fresh in the mind how shite it can be outside those rooms. A lot of good advice tonight wether your in for 1 day 1 month or 1 year you can always take note and keep it fresh.
Problems with my pay this month, received less than half my way. Would normally panic and place bets to try cover the loss but learned to live within my means until it’s resolved. Another positive step
Went to the meeting despite how I felt and glad I did. Good topic on how What GA has given you in your life and a lot of good stories and identification throughout. Always going to have flat days and moments, just have to be strong throughout
Really can’t be bothered going to a meeting tonight. Just don’t feel the rooms are working for me at the minute. Still off a bet, still feeling strong. Just don’t feel the rooms are adding anything extra.
Feeling incredibly flat today. The prospect of going back to work after a long time off and what could happen whilst I’m there. A lot going through my head. Just have to manage it the right way
@boyceyoh Think that’s what the rooms are good for though. Hearing those experiences, identifying yourself and realising the progress you’ve made and the destructive life Gambling caused/causes. Seeing mew remembers is great because it’s a reminder of what’s still out there
