It’s a terrible feeling to blow all the Christmas money Alli. The part of you who “doesn’t care” is the “sick” part. The part who would do it again to win the money back . “Be hung for a sheep as a lamb” sort of feeling.
I have done that so often.
I have prayed to God for a loan. Gone through fling bullets to get it. Swear “this is it, never again ” and stuffed every cent of that loan (many times) into slot machines.
I do not know why we do it.
All I DO know Alli, is that stopping and staying stopped IS possible!
Look at all the success stories here!
Try to be kind to yourself
You are in shock after the loss of that money.
it’s an awful feeling.
