i won a new lifeParticipant
Day 20 I have a small amount of cash and had to pay some bills this week, next week I can start to save. I bought my kids some clothes, had to pay child support, daycare. ect. never have missed a payment for my kids. Even got some new shoes. It can only go up from here, no gambling, freedom from worry.ODAAT one day at a time
i won a new lifeParticipantDay 17 I have a small amont of cash and my blocks in place. I changed my background(wallpaper) of my computer to a pic. of my kids, a good reminder of why I have to stay in control. I’ve been there and done that. I was a compulsive gambler who has embraced recovery. I now have the ability to start saving money. One bet is too many and 1000 never enough. ODAAT one day at a time

i won a new lifeParticipantDay 12, Bill’s get paid Tom. and gambling is not an option, yes I miss the thrill but I won’t miss the heartache. The urges come but they pass. I used to think of gambling as a way to make money- way wrong. Even with carefull strategy and bankroll management I was lucky to break even. Then I would tilt, and chase and lose everything. I have no excuses for my gambling past, to work full time and give everything to the casino is baffling. I have seen the results over and over again, even won big and could not stop. I have great empathy for anyone who has become addicted to online gambling, and wish everyone strength to continue a gamble free life.ODAAT one day at a time
i won a new lifeParticipantYeah mate, good to hear. As baffling as it is we know don’t make the first bet. I hope this summer can be enjoyed without gambling. I have had to learn the hard way over and over again. I could not agree more.ODAAT one day at a time
i won a new lifeParticipantDay 10, Gambling is not an option. Tired and broke don’t want to feel like this again. The highs form gambling are not worth the lows. One day at a time I embrace recovery.ODAAT one day at a time
i won a new lifeParticipantI continued to gamble tonight (got a CC approved, been on major tilt), I was lucky enough to win my losses back and cashed out. now I’m done… sooo lucky, would have been a deep hole. leaves me back at $1500 lost scince joining GT. hopefully stays that way. Don’t gamble, when I start I can’t stop- anyone who says there only down $1500 in the last month and bit has a serious gambling problem.

Tonight I continued to chase losses- I got 1k overdraft approved and went for it. I am out of control, I have no more money to spend. I feel like I need to gamble bad. I feel bad for posting, because its a bad post. I going to stop again, I’m out of money and I think I was saving for a big binge. I’ll keep posting.ODAAT one day at a time

i won a new lifeParticipantHad a good gamble free weekend with my son, I find when I stay off my computer it makes the weekend easy. So rather than throw my pc in the trash I’ll just limit my time spent on it and try to find more productive things to do.ODAAT one day at a time
i won a new lifeParticipantHi R2C, Glad you got some time from your last bet and your right about locking up your money, It’s a shame I’ve been doing the same thing. Save and Binge-it has to change. Have a good week, God Bless.ODAAT one day at a time
