unbelievable, I don't have the slightest urge to gamble and I really don't think I ever will gamble again.

The thought of gambling disgusts me, if I am ever in doubt again, I will pick up that book!

I have heard a lot of good things about that book . I'm glad it's helping you but beware of falling into the thinking that you're "cured" .

I wish you the best !

I will not be that careless again' I have put barriers in place too and made my self exclusions permanent.

It just feels so different this time after reading that book, feel very confident.

Debt is getting me down a bit, but I have paid off £1000 since posting on here and I have not touched gambling, not even had an urge!

Starting to feel a bit better now, have been working extra hours and I will be debt free, towards the end of next year.

I have managed to pay £1000 a month towards my debt and I can now see it going down rapidly! :D

I read Allen Carr's book too and it was refreshing. I bought it at the discount section of the bookstore for $5 lol.
