    Another day, gamble free.
    My pay hit this week, and retirement check hit next week, soooo that will be my test.
    And no, unfortunately I do not have anyone to handle my finances. The life of an introvert….

    One day at a time.

    Thank you.
    I’ll take another look to see what all Gam Therapy offers,other than the forum.
    Didn’t take that walk outside today, but I’m on my treadmill, watching the news.

    Have a good evening, and thank you again.

    Kin,
    Are you familiar with GamCare? I looked at theit site last week, it look like they have live chats/forums; But, I am assuming they are open in the UK time zone. I tried logging in during a meeting, but it was already over. UK is approx 5 hours ahead of the US.
    I have always been somewhat of a loner, don’t really care to be around folks too much. So my support circle is very small, and it would be nice to have someone like a sponsor when you feel yourself giving in. But, I haven’t found anything like that for gamblers…..

    Hi Kin,
    I actually enjoy walking, light workouts; but, I don’t push myself to go out when it’s cold outside, absolutely hate being snuffy (can’t breathe) at night.
    But, when the weather’s nicei try to get out and walk/jog a little.
    A little over a year ago I started working from home, it’s harder to get up and go walking after sitting in your PJs all day, so my goal is to make it a part of my afternoon/evening schedule again.

    Hi Kin,
    I am sorry sorry to hear the sad news regarding your friends, and the best thing you can do to honor them both is to stay strong, and gamble free.
    You are in my thoughts and prayers, sending virtual hugs your way.
    One day at a time my friend….

    Good morning,
    This should be an easy day. Nothing to play with, which means I have nothing to lose. Cash wise….
    Have a pleasant, gamble free day.
    One day at a time….

    Hi Polishprincess,
    I just read your introduction, and I think I can say the majority on this site has been in your shoes, and some of us are still there.
    It’s a daily struggle, but as you can see some of the people who post on this site has been gamble free for a while which shows that the goal is reachable/obtainable, We just have to take it one day at a time.
    I am speaking to myself as well right now because I have fallen down once again.
    I’m a wife, a mother and a grandmother and I can’t believe I’m still doing this after after 13 years.
    One day at a time my friend, one day at a time.

    Hi Kin,
    Thank you for your kind words.

    That last share was back in August.
    But, to be honest I am back in that place again. If I had $1,000 for all the times I have started over, I would be very rich by now.
    I am so tired… But, I will continue to start over until I get it right. I continue to question why me, why do I have a compulsive gambling problem. But, I just don’t know.
    I just want to be delivered from this, and healed. I feel like I’m crazy sometime, like something is wired wrong in my brain. Stopping sounds so easy, but it’s not. I have honestly tried so many times to stop, but I just go running back.
    I’m just venting, I just went and lost some money I didn’t have to lose…
    But, I’m ok….

    One day at a time….one day at a time.

    Good to see you are still hanging in there Kin.
    It’s been a while since I have checkef in on the forum, and not because I have been doing good. But, I’m happy to see you are still doing what it takes to stay gamble free.

    Good morning
    Congrats on your gamble free days!
    I have been coming back to this forum for years because I like to see if I have beat this thing, the answer
    is always no. Speaking from experience “we are not normal gamblers, even after staying away for a while,’ so please stay strong and stay completely away.
    Wishing you well, from a compulsive gambler.
