Just reading this back and I think if you believe you were recovered then you havn’t really grasped recovery. When I say that I mean you don’t share the opinions of most of the CG’s on here. There’s no cure, so we can never be recovered. I know that GMA is a lot different to GA but the fundamental basics are the same. Honesty, acceptance, change. And recovery is a journey not a destination. That is why ongoing support is a must. At most GA meetings there will be somebody ten or even twenty years free of gambling…they still go to GA, why. Does that not make them a slave to recovery? Well I don’t think it does, it helps them continue to live in freedom..they are the ones who have to remind themselves of the evilness it was all them years ago to keep it real. Don’t forget how desperate you must have been to apply for GMA. Forget the big wins, look where they got you. For every big win I would have ten or twenty bigger losses. Why would you want another one?
