Congrats on your new Granddaughter! Take care!
I am glad you didn’t gamble although I know it can be challenging. I find that if I make financial goals for myself, it helps when I get the urges. It is hard to stop once I get going. Take time for yourself. Self care is something that we don’t do enough. Take care.
Hi Maverick. I am sorry that you gambled but glad that you came back to GT. I know you can stay gamble free again. Don’t give up! I wonder how many of us turn to another addiction when we are not gambling? Mine was compulsive shopping. I have sold and donated most of the silly things I bought. I guess it is how a addictive mind works. I wish the best for you. You have a lot of support and friends here. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Laura. You are with friends. You know what you need to do. Keep posting. Take care.
Kin, Gambling should never be a option with us but we all human and make mistakes. Give yourself a break. Dust yourself off and start again. Take care friend.
Hi Kin, Remember self care. Take care of yourself first.
Hi Micky, Remembering good memories on your Dad’s anniversary is awesome. I will be doing that next month. Honoring my Husband. I pray that everyone here can fight this addiction and overcome this disease. I think that we are all good people and deserve a happy life. Take care of yourself!
Hi Jonny, Keep going with your recovery. You are doing great! Hope you get some relief with your back. Take care.
Sorry to hear that Jen has gestational diabetes. February 16th isn’t that far off. Baby will be here soon.
Hi i-did-it, I hope that you will keep posting here. I think it can be very useful to you and others. I had a situation here, sometime ago where I felt like someone was judging me by something I posted on my thread. I was upset and felt violated as I thought this should be a safe place to post my thoughts and feelings. In short, this person didn’t know me and I felt that they were deflecting from their own issues by tearing apart my words. Don’t let someone else’s unwanted opinion stop you from posting here. Have a great weekend.
Kin, Life is made up of unexpected things and changes. One of the biggest lessons that I have ever learned is that the only control I have is over myself and how I react to things and people in my life. This addiction is horrid. We can just keep trying and trying. Take care
Hi Maverick. That you for your recent post on my thread. Your positive words always make my day! Money is money. We need it to survive but a lot of people place too much importance on it! I am sorry to hear about your friend. When my Husband was diagnosed with cancer nothing else mattered but having another day with his family and friends. I hate cancer! Keep being the kind person you are. One day at a time. Take care.
Thanks Charles.
Hi ICAN, I am sorry about your friend. Cancer sucks! Take care of yourself. Grieving is one of the hardest things that I have ever gone through. Be kind to yourself. Take care.
Hi Bettie, I hope you get to feeling better soon. I am sure it will just take time as this was a major health issue. That’s good that Jen has her health card. A new baby! Exciting!!! I hope this New Year will be great for you. Take care of yourself.
