So good to see you got through the urges, well done.. i am having some now as i speak. I am sick of them. I am waiting them out though but i can see how easy it would be to be sucked back in again to that trap. Enjoy that time with your grandson.. what wonderful memories you are creating for him.

It is great you have taken this step to improve your life by stopping gambling, some days it seems impossible but it can be done on a day at a time approach. Don’t gamble today.. or just for this hour, then dont gamble the next hour, if you get that impulse to gamble string it out.. stretch it out, do something else and get busy.. find other things to fill your time with..

I cant imagine what you are going through with your youngest daughter. I am so glad that you have the awareness though too i guess having your own addiction to see when you are enabling. Some people wouldnt even be aware of that. You are doing the best you can Lizbeth and i can only imagine how hard it would be. All i see is you are such a giver and a caring person. Your kindness really shines through in your posts. I think the people around you are so so lucky to have you. Have a great gamble free day.. thanks for inspiring me to move.. wheres my runners..

Hey well done Lorraine i felt teary for you when you said about getting your teeth done.. It is amazing how we neglect ourselves when we are gambling. Crazy crazy stuff this addiction, i will never ever get my head round it, i just have to know that i cant gamble.. cant have that first bet for me or i am a gonner ! Keep up the good work and look at the positives. Your sister isn’t in recovery but you are! Think of when you were in the midst of addiction too could your sister have stopped you? I know its frustrating, i dont know how you do it living with her now. Remember your recovery comes first , without it we are no help to anyone. I understand how she is in addiction because i am the same in the middle of it no one or nothing will stop me. You can only do what you can for you. Be an example to her and show her how your life is changing for the better without gambling in it. I love that you are still not going to the casino while she is. I love it. You are better than that you want recovery.. keep going Lorraine. You are worth it, you have so much stress in your life but keep trying to look for those little positives, it is so easy to focus just on the negative.. i get negative too.. dont get me wrong but i find if i look for the little bonuses in life that its not so heavy..
