Hi Mutley and welcome back. Well done on your 4 or 5 days gamble free.
As you say, no money = no gambling, we can use that in recovery. How can you limit your access to funds when you do get paid? What things can you put in place now, while you can’t gamble, so that is is harder to do so when you can.
As you say, there is always a way around barriers, we can tighten those barriers though.
How about support? You haven’t been posting here so have you been getting to GA or anything like that? Lots of support options in the UK, here and sites like this, Gamblers Anonymous, Gamcare, the NHS clinics, even residential support.
At the end of the day if we could do it on our own then none of us would have been in the chit in the first place. Keep psoting, look at what things you can put in place to make your next bet less likely. Then while the barriers are giving you a breathing space use the support to start working on other things.
We, and/0r your other support options, can help you stop gambling. Use your Dr and mental health support as well.
Keep posting and maybe I’ll see you in a group soon.
