Thank you Helen for all your continued words of help and support.I have read all your replies and know what you say is very true.I am now 114 days without a bet and I know only too well its just 1 day at a time.As I have slipped and fell on many,many occassions,probably over 100 times,but I would like to think this time I am doing things slightly different,by completely distancing myself from anything to do with gambling,ie watching the Horse racing,like I used to,even when not gambling.But however my recovery doesnt seem to be progressing,mainly because of such a crap,and lonely,dismal existance and the fact that I am very depressed a lot of the time as there never,ever semms to be anything to look forward to.Maybe thats why I always go back to gambling,but as you know it only makes things a million times worse and the hole gets ever deeper.All I can do is just take 1 day at a time and hope that 1 day a shred of happiness will come.Thanks for your replies,Andy.
