Carole I wish I could say something to make things better for you but I can’t. Sometimes we can give good advice to others yet can’t seem to help ourselves. I would have to ask where did you get access to all the money you lost? What kind of barriers have you set up now that you are on your own?
What kind of help are you getting for yourself? We try “our way” time and time again only to prove our way sucks! It’s time for something else Carole I know you were bored with GA and reading the yellow book at the meetings. It was more than a year before I stopped READING the yellow book and started LISTENING to what it really says. We compulsive gamblers make it very hard when in reality it is very simple. Follow page 17 and keep an open mind. The program will work for ANYONE who workes it.
I believe Compulsive Gambling is an expression of the burden we carry. It’s our revenge for all the injustice we feel in life. The sad reality is it’s more like taking poison and expecting the other guy to die! It just doesn’t work that way.
Love you Carole!
