Had a pretty decent but emotionally draining day today. Things are in a precarious position with the missus and it’s lead to quite a bit of stress and anxiety in the last few days. Luckily all my blockers and self-exclusions are in place and it’s at times like this where I’m really glad I simply have no way of using gambling as an escape. Whilst my brain might not like it in the short term, self-destructive behaviours that help us temporarily escape are always bad for us in the long run. No matter what ups or downs I go through, gambling will no longer be a part of my life!
