    Hi Lisa,

    I always tell people we are addicted to the high but also to the low. You need to find something else to keep you busy. This addiction is the worst. I wish you the best

    How are you betting is it online ?

  • FlavorMan posted a new activity comment 1 years, 3 months ago

    @Serenity thanks …..I’m happy the gamban worked within 5 minutes of knowing I could get into a sire to gamble I was already justifying going to bet on some sports. Still keeping the best streak (of sobriety) alive. Hope you are having a good day

  • FlavorMan posted a new activity comment 1 years, 3 months ago

    Get GAMBAN for atleast a one week trial then it’s like 4$ a month but it won’t bug like bet blocker !!!!

    Super important to get a blocking site my man.

    @Serenity

    Thank you, speaking to others is really helping me so maybe its selfish to an extent but i will do wtv it takes at this point. I put the effort in to when thinking what I write because I think im speaking to myself at the same time.

    Hey All

    I watch the Fifth Estate documentary on sports betting tonight. This being my most recent issue I wanted to watch. It touched on a few different aspects of the now legal Canadian industry. The reason I bring it up is that when I decided enough is enough I decided I would cancel my sports channels on the TV. It has helped, with all…[Read more]

    • Great way to remove temptation from your environment, and recognizing your weaknesses and taking steps to address it.

    Hi Natasha

    First and foremost congrats on 30 days that is GREAT !!!

    I do not know the exact situation but when we don’t gamble it usually gets us very down which makes things seem much worse, so keep this in mind.

    Another thing to keep in mind people who do not battle with addictions are very abrasive when they do not understand how people h…[Read more]

    Hello Belinda,

    We are all in the same boat

    How do you gamble is it online ? If so Bet blocker is a great (free) app to help you block it. I highly recommend it we cant be trusted to do it on our own at the beginning.

    Thank you for taking the time to comment

    My issue used to but slots at casino but last few years became sports betting, it was how i spent my nights watching. So I had to find a way to fill the nights up since i ruined watching sports now for myself as having nothing on the game has made me lose all interest in it.

    • It sounds too me like you have a good plan set in place too keep busy Thank you again for sharing your thoughts. I will also keep myself busy. Work and my down time. I like cooking, art amongst other interests.

    YESSS …….Might not be the right terminology but have to find other ways to get high (stay busy) speaking for myself here. Ive been burying myself in work, going for walks and at night reading and playing video games with my god son.

    Day 21

    My short term goal is to get to 30 days and I can see it on the horizon

    I wanted to write somethign for anyone at day 0 , the progress I have made in 20days is surprising to me. It is not only financially (which having money in the bank is a great feeling) but really opening dialogue with people I love. One day at a time for sure…[Read more]

      You are doing very well congratulations. . I’m just behind you in days. Today I feel a bit down. My guess as the day goes on I’ll feel better. Reading your post has helped me though. One day at a time 🙂
