Thanks RG 🙂
Day 12!! As I wrote, I was afraid this Summer was going to be really hard to me, since I don’t have much to do and I’m just waiting to start this new job in September.
Actually it has been easier than I thought. I’ve played music for many years (at least I’ve got one hobby that survived this addiction) and yesterday I had a concert and it was so nice to play, I really loved it. Today I’ll drink some beer in the afternoon with friends and then have dinner, so I guess it will be fun and gambling will be out of my mind for a few moments. Isn’t it crazy that I’ve thought about gambling every single day of my life in the last 3 years?
Well, I feel normal now, not too sad, not too happy. Actually next week I’ll travel to one of this all inclusive hotels with nice beaches and swimming pools with family (cousins, aunts, parents, etc) and I’m sure it will be really funny and I won’t think about gambling for sure.
Best thing is that when I come back I will have crossed the 21 days mark, which is technically the amount of time needed to “forget” an habit. With gambling it’s different, I know, since some gamble once a month (payday) and have obviously a problem. It’s still a benchmark I’m looking forward to achieve and I guess it won’t be that hard since I’ll be abroad and having a really nice time with my family.
I’m so grateful for the family I have. Regardless of everything, I feel unconditional love from them.
Thank you all for the support, specially Steev 🙂
