An update almost a year later. The last 11 months have consisted of a ton of gambling downs with only a few ups. My stomach was hurting last year after knowing that I lost enough money to send my daughter to college. Well, with my losses over the last 11 months, I could‘ve paid her college twice over now…I am even more disappointed in my self-inflicted stupidity. From May to September, I was able to stay completely away and it felt good. But one slip up on a September has put me on a downward spiral since then. Today is my new Day Zero after suffering too much of a loss in just 30 minutes of online betting today. I finally am going to take Steev’s advice and sign up for an online gambling blocking tool. My hope is I can finally look back at this day as the day I decided to get rid of this destructive habitat.
