Hi Caron, thanks for posting on my thread. I have just finished reading your journey – well done on seeing the lesson and the positive in things, and also on recognizing and working through the urges. Your posts are helpful and encouraging to others too! Those machines are a scam, and they are specifically designed to sneak in under our defences like thieves in the night. Pfft I say!gracephnx

Hi Caron, thanks for your posts, it has really helped.  I know that I slipped twice, but to get me back on track I am thinking that the last time I slipped it was three *****… so if it is two ***** this time… then I have achieved something.  I have really been trying to figure out why I slipped and i know that I was really scared getting close to day 90 as that is when I had slipped the last time. I don’t ***** the days as I find that can be a trigger for me.  For some reason though I had it in my head when I would be at day 90 and then day 100 and I slipped on day 104.  I had not been coming to GT as much and well the rest is history.  I will go with Vera’s thoughts and live in the NOW.  What’s done is done – we can’t change it.  We can fight these urges and continue on our recovery – one day at a time.  Wishing you a day free of gambling.One day at a time my sweet lord…
