Hi kats,

Welcome to the forum and well done on day 13 without gambling.

With the current situation from the pandemic, many people are in a similar situation where they do not have access to a live local GA meeting they can attend. There are Zoom GA meetings however which take place online, you can see a list of upcoming meetings here – https://gamblersinrecovery.com/?s=

That also may be a good place to ask about getting tokens, or someone on here may have an answer for that.

There are also the various groups that take place on here, including the New Members Practical Advice Group On Mondays at 21:00 (UK) and Thursday at 19:00(UK) which I find very useful.

Привет, катс, добро пожаловать на форум и молодцы 13 день без азартных игр. В нынешней ситуации, связанной с пандемией, многие люди находятся в аналогичной ситуации, когда у них нет доступа к живому местному собранию ГА, которое они могли бы посетить. Однако есть собрания Zoom GA, которые проходят онлайн, вы можете увидеть список предстоящих встреч здесь – https://gamblersinrecovery.com/?s= Это также может быть хорошим местом, чтобы спросить о получении токенов, или кто-то здесь может есть на это ответ. Здесь также проходят различные группы, включая Практическую консультационную группу для новых членов по понедельникам в 21:00 (Великобритания) и в четверг в 19:00 (Великобритания), которые я считаю очень полезными.

Hi johnstein,

The daily exercises sound like a very good idea. If you are finding those useful, you also may find it useful to jump in one of the topic group meetings that run on a Monday at 8 p.m. UK time, these are kind of similar to the exercises that you are describing (in fact triggers was a specific topic in a previous meeting, and I assume will be again), except that the topic being discussed is worked through as a group.

Привет, johnstein! Ежедневные упражнения кажутся очень хорошей идеей. Если вы найдете их полезными, вы также можете счесть полезным перейти на одно из собраний тематической группы, которое проводится в понедельник в 20:00 по британскому времени, это отчасти похоже на упражнения, которые вы описываете (на самом деле триггеры были конкретная тема на предыдущей встрече, и я предполагаю, что будет снова), за исключением того, что обсуждаемая тема прорабатывается в группе.

I had 2 group sessions this week, the first on Monday in the Topics Groups on avoiding Potholes to Recovery, and the 2nd yesterday was a new member’s practical advice group.

I found the topic group very helpful, a summary of some of the items that stood out to me.

• Unexpected events can be big potential potholes
• Try and have a plan in place for dealing with unexpected events
• The pandemic is one of the best examples of an unexpected event that could be a big pothole (working from home, events canceled, fewer items to do
• It is good to have a variety of non-gambling items to fall back on to fill the previous gambling time, if you rely on only 1 item to fill the void, if something happens to prevent you from participating in that item, you could be back in a tough place
• Good thread bumped in the Recovery Tools forum listing various options for things to do to replace gambling
• Even what appears to be a good unexpected event can potentially be a pothole, a good example is some unexpected money coming your way such as a bonus, or a tax refund as you now have potential unaccountable funds. To help in these situations, we should turn that unaccountable money into accountable money as fast as possible such as telling a friend or partner about it or posting about it on the forum.

I also found the new member’s group useful. There were a few newcomers which Charles helped out with various tips/advice/support resources which were a reminder/refresher on the support available. It was also good to be able to try to provide some advice/tips to these new members based on my own experience.
