The problem is stopping is not as easy as just saying, okay now I am going to stop gambling. The excitement, the glitz, the winning, the “fun” and thrill of being there will creep back into your mind and until you realize it’s an out and addiction that requires much more work then just saying, I quit gambling for good- then you will continue to gamble. How do I know this, I have been there done that for years! I thought I could just stop many times, and many times I did- but when we think we are higher then the problem itself we fall flat on our face every time! So for me, I am a compulsive gambler and I now live ODAAT and for today I am not gambling… I try now not to look ahead to never gambling again, and I will remember the horrid mistakes and money I lost, but I will try not too look too much back either! Hope you can realize we are here on this site because we need each other, perhaps outside help and most of all we need to fully admit we have a problem…
