Day 27 – Almost a Month Clean

[u/Thomas754Will]

It’s been twenty-seven days since I joined the online rehab program. Honestly, I don’t think I’d be here without it. Before I started, I couldn’t even make it through a single day without gambling it felt impossible. The online rehab has become the structure I was missing. The live sessions keep me accountable, because I know I’ll have to show up and talk honestly about my week. And the PDF materials they send are like my daily survival kit. Today I went back to the chapter about “accepting cravings instead of fighting them.” Reading it again after almost a month, I could actually see how it’s helped me. In the first week, cravings knocked me down every time. Now, I can feel them, name them, and let them pass without placing a single bet. I’m still in debt. I still feel ashamed. But thanks to the rehab program, I’ve got tools and people I can lean on instead of just falling back into old habits. Twenty-seven days clean isn’t a miracle, but it’s proof that this program is working for me. And for the first time in years, I believe I can keep going.
