Just wanted to add something that I am wondering if others are going through and how they conquered it! For years now, I go on a gambling binge that may just be one day, or several or a few weeks- I may win some, but then ultimately loose it all then huge huge more losses! Then I am frantically trying to make up for losses by working extra hard, selling unwanted items, having yard sales you name it! And I usually recover enough to get back to the spot finacially I started at before the binge, however- I am sick emotionally and mentally drained of trying to play catch up with making up for losses. And then as the loosing escalates and I loose huge amounts instead of the smaller amounts I lost say at the beginning years ago- I am not able to recover like I did! I can hardly think about trying to make up for this last mistake again. I painfully worked like crazy for 2 months to make up for the last one, only to repeat and do it again. Does anybody else do this?? Do you gamble in huge binges then try to work extra hard and make it back, then feel better then do it again?
