It is Day 2 of hitting bottom!  I am here because I need help in order to live a gamble free life.  It is hard because I have used up all of my resources and have no money to even buy the needed essentials.  Last week I had a $100,000/year job and today I have nothing.  I am trying desparetely not to focus on what I cannnot change, but rather what I can try and change moving forward.  It is imperative that I have a constant in my life and I am not sure what that looks like at this time.  My goal is one day at a time and to surround myself with friends that have been through this and are going through this now.
I am smart and articulate.  The saddest part of all of this is the damage I have done to myself and to others.  I wish that weren’t true, but it is a sad reality of where I am right now.  I hope and pray that God gives me the strength and guides me to the next phase of my life where I can hopefully find peace at last.  This is the most difficult time of my life and I am not sure where I will end up.
I read many posts and felt inspired in many ways.  I feel very helpless right now because I have no way out of the place that I am.  I think I am at the very lowest point of my life.  I hope and pray that God will help me find m way again.  I am lost and hope to be found.  Please keep writing – I need your support this first week without a job.
