I haven’t gambled In 4 days. I am enjoying the power that I have knowing that am capable. I have had a couple of urges, but moved through them swiftly without relapse. I know 4 days isn’t many, but it’s a start. The true test Monday when I’m paid. For today I can rest knowing that there is hope.

Hello and thanks for starting a thread in the Gambling Therapy forums

Here at Gambling Therapy we pride ourselves on being a caring and diverse online community who can help and support you with the difficulties you?re currently facing. We understand that this might be a tough time for you, particularly if you?re new to recovery, so come here as often as you need to and participate in the forums, access online groups and connect to the live advice helpline if you need one to one support. We?re in this together!

Here on the forum you can share your experiences in a safe, supportive and accepting environment. The beauty of writing it all down is that you can take your time and you will be creating a record of your progress that you can look back on if it ever feels like you?re not moving forward. So, share as much or as little as you like but do try to stick to keeping just one thread in this forum so people know where to find you if they want to be updated on your progress or share something with you.

And on that note….

I?m going to hand you over to our community because I?m sure they will have some words of wisdom for you ??

Take care

Hi Lynsey, well done on looking for help.

Reading the other threadds here you will see many things that you relate to. You will also see the success stories, what are they doing that you can apply to your own situation?

You realise that pay day will be a test for you? Good, now you can use that knowledge. What barriers can you put in place? Who can heol your wages? Who can you be accountable to so that you can’t gamble secretly? You can also get yourself banned from your usual gambling establishments/sites before you get paid.

Keep posting and let us know what positive steps you are taking.
