How are you doing?
I’m so sorry about your husband.
My daughter has just had her first baby, my first grandchild.
It is a feeling I have never felt before, being a granny rocks!
You can do this Twnmum. Time to end this viscous cycle of hate and despair and begin to live again. You have so much to live for.
You need to get your barriers up, ask for help from people you know and trust, they may not understand it, but you need major support right now. What about GA? This forum is brilliant and saved my life, keep posting and reading, it all helps and fills extra time.
The urge to gamble becomes easier to control when you stop. When you put barriers up. You have taken a great step in coming here and admitting your addiction, now is the time to start walking the road of recovery. You deserve it. The money is gone, acceptance of that is so difficult but necessary. You need to start over, start fresh.
Tomorrow is a new day, the past is past and cannot be changed, gambling will only make things worse.
I thought I could never ever stop.
Lost my home and almost everyone that was dear to me.
I wont say its easy, and Its no bed of roses when you have some gamble free time under your belt but…….
Your mind will become clearer, the fog will lift and you will see things differently. You can enjoy small things, and appreciate whats right in front of you.
Gambling will only bring you pain.
I hope you are doing ok.
Drop a line when you are able.
Take care, Love K xx
