So take a look at me now, since I told you it's over @stereophonics #GA

Good to see Judge Paul Glenn highlighting profits made by firms like Stoke based @bet365 - while the founder Denies Coates has an estimated £4bn fortune, in the past the GA group in the city has struggled to pay the room hire for its weekly meeting

@GamDemons It’s on the GamCare website - https://t.co/G33yE1Q4V3 you have a profile and can add in the date you last gambled. Good to keep track of it 👍🏻

Two years today since I last gambled. A day out on the beers with my mates in Halifax and after doing my usual trick of blowing all my money by the second or third pub, I completely broke down. I don’t know what was different this time but so thankful for whatever it was

@AGambler4 Good luck, I hope you get the changes you want and deserve

@kfield82 How long have I been asleep for? 😳

@gambler221218 How you doing this morning mate? Can you give that money to someone you trust?

[Time To Stop @TimeTo_Stop]

@gambler221218 Always good to reward yourself! Enjoy it

@PilotA3800 Try and learn from it. Was it online/in a shop? Can someone look after your money for you in the future so you can’t access it like you did on this occasion?

@Bazza88926562 Get yourself excluded mate

@foolsgold040716 It’s been a long road and can never take one day for granted. But the thought of going back to that way of existing now makes me feel physically sick. Just hope I can always have that feeling bottled up so I never forget

Closing in on two years gamble free. 16 days away. Dread to think where I would be if I was still gambling. For anyone struggling, I couldn’t go an hour without gambling at my worst. Used to gamble while driving, gamble in work. Thought I was beyond help. You can change

@davidlmartin85 Thanks David 😊

@howaylee Dread to think how many hours of my life I spent in the bookies. Once I got in as soon as it opened and was still there when the man behind the counter finished his shift - he even said I’d done a longer shift in there than him 🙈

@BodieLive Thank you 😊

Happy New Year everyone - make 2019 a gamble free year. It’s there if you (truly) want it
