    Feeling pretty good about it. I had family here and didn’t gamble. I have nothing else coming up that I worry about misleading me. For now anyway I’m happy to keep focus keep coming here keep reading to try and stay on the only path for me. Gambling free

    I’m here at day 17 and I have my brother in from out of town so I’m trying to find lots of no gambling activities for us. People always want to gamble when they come here but I can’t and I won’t!!

    Gambling was a storm that I always figured out how to keep an umbrella for… but there has always been the rainbow right above my head and it’s here with this great supportive community and inside me all along but unfortunately I had to let lightning strike me before I saw the rainbow… I choose peace I choose sunshine I choose to not get another umbrella because the rainbow was always there but I just always liked the rain so I would endure the storm… I’m changing my ways … chasing rainbows

    That’s really a good question!! Because it’s true for all of us compulsive gamblers, we never take the money!! But I’ve noticed a lot of people have the desire for more money to be their trigger… go figure. Anyway be strong, keep up the good work!!

    I have spent so much time over the last 5 years wishing I wouldn’t have done this or wishing I would’ve done that, but no matter how hard I wish I can’t change that. What I wish now is that I can be the best mother, partner, friend and person that I should have been all along. And this is a wish that I can make come true as long as I stay dedicated to my recovery. I’m done wishing to change the past and I’m willing to change my future!! ❤️

    Thank you for the reminder and also remember all the intangible things that we will also gain with the tackling of this sickness. There’s not enough money in the world that would make me want to give those up. I will get there and so will you!! ❤️

    Spend a lot of the day being sad about what I’ve done, especially in this past year, but I’m happy if I continue down this path I will never have to feel this way again

    One week happier!! Still feeling so much guilt and remorse but it’s a walk not a sprint and as long as I’m going in the right direction I’ll be ok
