Hi good you are off to GA what ever helps I say! Although I am not a 12 stepper in that sense. I would though advise as much as not focusing on the losses we incur equally as important not to focus on the wins or those “get out of jail” breaks that we are given at odd times. Those thoughts will only lead you right back to gambling and as Vera said it could then all end in bitter tears.
Soon as I think of gambling I switch channel or try to. I can only focus on today and the next few days and I am building internally a hatred for my addiction. I always try picture a dog returning to its own vomit when I think of gambling. Which is basically what it is when we give into our addiction.
Remove ALL access to money. At the moment you cant trust yourself and neither will others. Have no point of entry. Then you work on yourself as you have already started and do what is needed to change from within. Good luck!!!
