Thanks, I will get over this eventually I believe. I noticed what was happening and I stopped… The urges are a little difficult to deal with but I am making due. My bank account hasn’t suffered any hits so thats nice 🙂 I really appreciate this forum as an outlet, I know i’ve said it before but everytime I think about gambling I come on here and read through some posts, words of wisdom 🙂

I almost deposited today, right when I was about to click accept I backed off and told it to F off… What a feeling… Over a week gamble free

Been fighting the urge the last few days to gamble, my god this is difficult. My mind constantly wanders to it. The only thing keeping me from gambling is my will to keep my money. This is crazy.

First step is admitting the problem my friend. It takes some big kahunas in order to talk about problems in your life. Just keep coming on here…

Everytime you think about throwing a bet down or pulling a lever, say to yourself, “Gambling is a trap, even if I win, I lose, think of your losses.” If you can, come on here and vent about the situation your are going through, I have been gamble free 5 days, have been connecting with people and actually doing other stuff with my life again. You can do it too. I find repeating these words and using this forum to have helped. Even just reading what others have gone through makes me realize its a big deal. If you haven’t already, scroll through some posts and read what other people have posted. See their situations and use it to fuel your drive to quit. You can do this.

Thanks guys, this forum is helping just by reading other peoples entries and realizing I am not alone in this, had an urge today to gamble online when I got home from work. For the past few days I have been distracting myself with sports and hobbies, but today is Friday and the week is done. I have been repeating the words in my head “Gambling is a trap, even if you win you lose, think of your losses” and it has been helping, however the urge to throw $200 on a site and start playing slots was strong. Instead of putting the money up I came on here instead and read a few things, I just want to thank the community for giving people an outlet. The urge has gone away once again and i’m happy with that.
