Thanks Velvet. It’s nice to know we aren’t alone when it is so lonely.
I see the changes, only small but they are there.
We had a big fight last week because I habe not been able to forgive him for his last 2 slips. I have seen a psychologist to help me get past it and this angered him greatly.
He feels it is something I should just be able to do…. since i have never had this reaction before (been together 16 years) and he was a CG when we met.
The gambling is only part of the reason why its so had being with a CG. I found it has totally changed his personality and he has actually got mental health issues. Anxiety, hypermamiia, anger management, paranoid ,
I feel that he needs to see a psychologist as well as GA. For him, GA Can help with his addiction but only a psych Can help with mental health.
He has definitely calmer down and i think the chemicals in his brain are evening out after the massive highs of his gambling.
He is 15 days without gambling. And so far has attended a meeting everyday.
