Hi STOPNOW
The chances of you remaining gamble free will not be in your favour if you try to do this alone.
I have only been attending GA for 14 months, but in that time I have heard of only ONE instance where someone has remained gamble free by doing it alone.
I think you have to accept the fact that this addiction is hard to beat. It can/will gradually wear you down. With all the good intentions in the world I honestly feel that you are still doing yourself a disservice.
If you are not keen on a GA meeting, there are online & telephone counselling services available to you in the UK. Try them. You have nothing to lose.
Best wishes
Roy
