READ THIS FIRST
The Recovery Diary gives you general information and self-help tools. It does not give you professional advice.
Last updated: August 2026
GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY
All content, guides, checklists and tools on this website are for general informational and self-help purposes. They are written for a wide audience and cannot take your personal circumstances into account.
NOT PROFESSIONAL ADVICE
Nothing here is medical, psychological, gambling treatment, financial, tax, legal or debt counselling advice. The Recovery Diary is not a medical service, therapy provider, gambling treatment provider or debt counselling service.
TOOLS ARE ESTIMATES
The calculators and trackers work with the numbers you type in and run entirely in your browser. Their results are rough estimates, not statements of fact. Always check them against your own contracts, statements and payment agreements.
GET QUALIFIED HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT
If your situation involves your health, legal action, bailiffs, eviction, court dates or an addiction you cannot manage alone, speak to a qualified professional or a recognised organisation in your country. Choosing to get help is a strong move, not a failure.
EXTERNAL LINKS
We link to independent organisations we believe may help. We do not control them and we are not responsible for their content or services. We never link to gambling, betting or casino operators.
AFFILIATE LINKS
Some links on this website may be affiliate links, which means we could earn a small commission if you sign up or buy through them, at no extra cost to you. Not every link is an affiliate link, and a commission never changes what we recommend. Read the full affiliate disclosure for details.
IF THIS IS URGENT
This website is not a crisis service and is not monitored in real time. If you are in immediate danger or worried about your safety, contact your local emergency number or an official crisis line in your country right away, or go to the nearest emergency department. Our Get Help page lists where to look.
FIND THE RIGHT SUPPORT
Self-help works better next to real support. See what is available.
