So very true (((Larry)))! If we eliminate the reasons we gamble, be they dysfunctional relationships, lack of coping skills, boredom, etc, we go a long way in helping our recovery have less of a hold on us. That was true in my case anyways! Sometimes life throws us a curve ball out of left field that is very painful, and I’m trying to cope with those painful out of left field things, but I’m still learning. Carole
