Hi, i am new to this forum and I really need to discover what gamanon is about, i think its high time i do that. today i’m into another cycle of fighting for my basic needs and facing a new unfair situation making me scared about not having food, being evicted etc one more time when i do my best to do everything right. My instinct has made me think about going to a gamanon meeting so i started searching and i found this forum which seems very interesting. I feel often victim of unfair situations around money and power games that make me feel powerless and that are threatening my basic needs. my dad was a gambler and an alcoholic so at home it was hectic and scary and now that i am a grown up i often end up in situations where, no matter what i do, life, situations bring me back to this desperations, powerlessness, high lows and little support or help and even difficulty to know if i will have food to eat. i am fed up with fighting life all the time and i want to get my power and balance back. I am glad i found this forum it seems really helpful and not judgemental
