Last night I attended my first GA meeting. I was scared but clearly not alone to face this overpowering addiction. I was welcomed with open arms and felt for the first time that I can beat this thing. I am set to attend meetings almost daily as I fight to rid myself of the gambler’s death grip. I am better and I am hopeful. I am grateful to those that have written – please keep writing – it helps me more than you will ever know.
My heart breaks for all of us that have to work so hard to get better. I believe that God is now in the driver’s seat and helping me to be the person I once was before this addiction. Onward and Upward – today I have not gambled and for that I am proud.
