Closing out day 4
Big 24 hours coming up. Get paid tomorrow. So plan in place to avoid temptations.
Easter break coming up and I have 2 weeks off from next week which is a twin edged sword. Great as I am off work, but problematic if I have spare time on my hands.
Plan in going in place for that. A big DIY job at home needs doing. Then am going away for a few days with my partner which will be great. Something booked from before my latest bender.
From past experience I know keeping busy after a binge can help take my mind off things.
Past experience has also shown I can throw myself into other things then return to gambling again.
After the Easter break I will look for a routine where I am maintaining my journal, dropping into support groups on here and attending GA. Really try and focus on my recovery and how to maintain gamble free status.
Life could be a lot simpler and easy right now if I wasn’t a gambler. I really know I want that simple life now. Up to me to get there and stay there.
