I slipped up too but I have more days of not gambling then days I have gambled since I started coming here.

Durr, thank you! Agree with everything you said. We must be vigilante at the point when we starting to slip.

Hi Durr! Such great advice. We all have the power to retrain our brains just like you lift weights to get stronger. I like to call it a mindset reset. Be patient and kind to yourself. We are all works in progress.❤️

I started my journey September 8th, 2022. I have had one slip since then around the holidays. What is working for me is
1. Keep coming here.
2. Trust someone to hold your additional money.
3. I decided that I am not quitting gambling but stopping gambling. When I look at it this way I get the power that it is my decision. The word QUIT alone…[Read more] -

Sounds like my own story. I had over 90 days. I was coming here on chat almost daily then not so often. I have about 7 days too. I don’t even remember what day it was.

I have to come here alot. I was a 24/7 Gamer/gambler. I had to remind myself daily that I am an addict. I reaffirm my commitment and coming here make me accountable. I’d rather be here than be losing on a game.

Well hello still gamble free. I was a 24/7 gamer/gambler. Coming on here relieve the urge for me. I’m happy.

Quitting gambling is more than just quitting the action of gambling. It is moving against it.

Others will let you down. Find strength in your decision to quit. You will do it if you believe you will.

I’m happy I quit gambling. I feel better and I love having a place to go when I’m down. I have found strength in myself. I’m not afraid that I’ll gamble. It is only almost 3 weeks but If I have faith in myself I know I can keep on the right track. When I come here I come to help others and this reaffirms my decision to quit. Sometimes it is how…[Read more]

If you are having thoughts of suicide go to your hospital. Tell them you are homeless and addicted to gambling they will help you and point you in the right direction. I hope you are okay and safe. I’m hoping that you realize how important you are and deserve help. The waiting area might take awhile. Tell them that you have thought of suicide.…[Read more]

I’m glad you quit and are starting a new life. Come here and go on recovery chat. You got this. Keep reminding yourself that you made an adult decision to quit gambling and pat yourself on the back. You made the right decision to get off that roller coaster.
