Hi Monkey,
in a similar position – lost a hell of a lot of money, 3 houses, family and friends and no, we cant take the coward way out and no we cant give up… I have a little girl too and I loved how you put it that its better to be a disappointment than a memory — what wise words – I would hold onto those thoughts every time you have a temptation – I know too well its easier said than done – but it is right what you say… I have done the easy way out – obviously didn’t work out but never again – I will not let my demon beat me anymore and as a newbie to this site – I get a lot of inspiration from this site
you are not alone….
We’ve got to change our mindset and learn to love ourselves again….
well done for being so honest, I think that is the first step… keep going pal..
Paul
