I think you will feel better now that the speech is done. I don’t mean from relief that it is done, but how much it helps to talk about it.
I find myself talking about my issue more than I probably should. My co-workers / friends are a group of free wheeling guys who gamble because it is the “norm” for our type (we are all in sales, and thrive on the highs and lows)….I simply explain that I can’t join them because I have liked it too much, and too often… It starts dialogue, and I have yet to feel judged….Just the opposite has happened actually, is several of them have applauded me for addressing the problem, even “joking” that they should quit too.
I don’t wish my issues on anybody else, however, it is nice to know that we are not alone in this world, and hence, why I add my 2 cents on GT whenever I get the urge!
I wish you the best in your journey!
I think in no time, you will see how much positive your situation will bring to others, and in an odd way it may be worth it…since we can’t win our money back.
