Hi JVR
Your post about researching your impulse control intrigued me. I know that the side effects of one of my drugs was compulsive gambling. Did I pay attention to that? No I thought I knew better.
I can’t completely blame the medication as I knew full well my “sperm donor” was an addict. I have always warned my kids that addiction to alcohol was in our genes. Maybe I should have listened to my own advice?
I still have to remain on the medication because there is no other medication or treatments that I have tried that work.
I am no longer fully blaming the medication, I am realizing that I have to take full responsibility for my actions. Accept that I am a better person than what I have become.
Congratulations on your 122 days gamble free!!!! That is a huge accomplishment.
I look forward to everyday when I can wake up and say I made it another day!!!!
