Hi Vintagehoby. Yes, you are very brave to be open about your relapse. Its part of our journey to relapse and get back on the horse again. You certainly are not on your own. I’m struggling to stop for 24 hours at the moment. Super well done for the length of time you managed to stop for. Have you managed to stop again now? I have been reading some interesting research about just how this addiction is chemical and that our brains become wired for gambling in a chemical reaction sense. That must be why it is so hard to stop. We have to start rewiring ourselves to stop producing the chemicals we produce when we gamble. I think thats the gist of the research? Maybe someone can shed some light on this. Anyway, keep going again. You are not alone.
