Hyvin aloitettu uusi ketju, olen iloinen, että aloitit yhden etkä lähtenyt. En halua kenenkään lähtevän koskaan !! haha, sen pienen yhteisön, joka meillä on täällä, on pysyttävä yhdessä. Ikävä kuulla kaikista pahoinpitelyistä perheen kanssa. Tämä asia äitisi kanssa on jatkunut pitkään, kun hän on väkivaltainen. Se on kauheaa sinun käydä läpi. Ihanaa kuulla, että olet vauvan kanssa .. Toivottavasti kaikki selviää pian. On hyvä, että Lizbeth et turvaudu uhkapeliin .. pysy turvassa P.

Làm rất tốt khi bắt đầu chủ đề mới của bạn, tôi rất vui vì bạn đã bắt đầu một chủ đề và không rời đi. Tôi không muốn bất cứ ai rời đi bao giờ !! haha, cộng đồng nhỏ mà chúng ta có ở đây phải ở lại với nhau. Tôi rất tiếc khi biết về tất cả những điều đó đang xảy ra với gia đình. Chuyện này với mẹ của bạn đã diễn ra trong một thời gian dài với việc bà ấy bị ngược đãi. Thật khủng khiếp cho bạn để trải qua. Thật tuyệt khi biết tin bạn đang ở với đứa bé lớn .. Tôi hy vọng mọi việc sẽ sớm ổn thỏa. Điều tốt là Lizbeth bạn không dùng đến cờ bạc .. hãy giữ an toàn P

Jeg vil ikke have nogen til at forlade nogensinde !! haha, det lille samfund, vi har her, skal blive sammen. Jeg er ked af at høre om alle de tynde der foregår med familien. Det her med din mor har stået på længe, da hun var krænkende. Det er forfærdeligt for dig at gå igennem. Dejligt at høre, at du er sammen med den store baby .. Jeg håber, at alt ordner sig hurtigt snart. God ting er Lizbeth, du tyer ikke til spil .. vær sikker P

Молодець із запуском нової теми, я радий, що ви почали її і не пішли. Я не хочу щоб хтось пішов !! ха -ха, наша маленька спільнота має залишатися разом. Мені шкода чути про всіх злодіїв, які відбуваються з родиною. Ця справа з вашою мамою триває довгий час, коли вона знущається. Вам жахливо це проходити. Приємно чути, що ви з великою дитиною. Сподіваюся, скоро все вийде. Добре, що Лізбет, ти не вдаєшся до азартних ігор .. будь у безпеці P

Godt gjort med å starte den nye tråden, jeg er glad du startet en og ikke dro. Jeg vil ikke at noen skal dra !! haha, det lille samfunnet vi har her må bli sammen. Jeg er lei meg for å høre om alt det som skjer med familien. Denne tingen med moren din har pågått lenge med at hun var fornærmende. Det er forferdelig for deg å gå igjennom. Fantastisk å høre at du er sammen med den store babyen. Jeg håper at alt ordner seg snart. God ting er Lizbeth, du bruker ikke pengespill .. vær trygg P

Parabéns por começar seu novo tópico, estou feliz que você começou um e não saiu. Eu não quero que ninguém saia nunca !! haha, a pequena comunidade que temos aqui tem que ficar junta. Lamento saber de todas as coisas que estão acontecendo com a família. Essa coisa com sua mãe já dura muito tempo com ela sendo abusiva. É horrível para você passar. É maravilhoso saber que você está com o grande bebê .. Espero que tudo se resolva bem em breve. Ainda bem que Lizbeth você não está recorrendo ao jogo .. fique seguro P

Just popping in to say hi too.. i wish all good things for you at this time. The good thing is to see a post from you again. I sometimes dont post for periods either. Its always good to see a familiar face, well cant say face, but friend, come back and say hi , i always wonder if everyone is ok yet i do it myself.. lol..

[p]

Hi there…

Well i loved the sound of those little bits and pieces you got for christmas. Glad you didnt stop to gamble, ugh the thought of you stopping in there and not getting the things you did. The difference in how you would have returned home.
You returned home with things for christmas, a whole lot better than returning home broke, full of regret and plans to chase the money back.. happy for you Laura, hope to see you in chat soon

Hi I did it

I hope you really enjoy the show and great to hear you are laughing and enjoying life. Hope to see you in group soon

P

[p]

Yes.. guess i was just looking at opinions as they differ on this one. Decided against it as i have heard others struggle with facebook slots and the like even if they dont spend much or no money. i dont need to go there. What would be the point

Thanks for all the replies, i was just curious to see what peoples take on it was.
In the GA literature their definition of what is gambling, cant remember what it is off the top of my head but something along the lines of the outcome of chance or something or other for money or not.. probaby nothing like that but someone was telling me this.
It is not important to me if it is or isnt i was just curious. I think the way to tell is if it affects your life and if it cuases negative circumstances.
Many say if you buy a raffle ticket or a lotto ticket your day goes back to day one, also with online gambling, for money or not. So i was told.
I havent done free slots i have heard others that have though and it has not made their life a more postiive one.
I do agree that it probably would keep the fire alive as i have thought. So should i risk that and take a look.. the answer is clear to me.
Many other games to play out there if i really want to.
Thanks for the replies i just like to see what others think.

Il see anyone in groups when they are back for a chat.. for now i think its time for me to move on from here.

This is the end of my journal

Yes i remember you.. cant tell you how many day 1’s i have had. This addiction is constant.. we can have days away from it but its always there, thats why people go to GA for years and years because the addiction doesnt actually go away so neither should the support.
Its easy to get lulled into a false sense of security in recovery especially when having some time up. It doesnt matter what day it is, it matters that we dont start again. Once we start we cant stop.. i see we as in its the same for most who have crossed the line.. they are the ones im talking about including myself.
You are spot on.. gamble or dont gamble, there absolutely is no grey area or in-between.. but once started it is incredibly hard to stop again, but you can.
You will stop again, you have before and you coming back here is testament to that. Dont think of day one just continue on now and you have experienced a pothole in your recovery.. i find day counting detrimental for the reason if there is a relapse it often is so devastating to the person to say day one again, it doesnt wipe away all the gamble free time you had and learnt.. recovery continues..
The important thing now is to stop again and continue support.. you can do this.. we all can with support.
