    Hi Carole
    Just keep trying the days gamble free. When I said I never gamble once I mean I never go once then stop. My once turns into months so I am amazed when I see people come back after one episode. It never gets better does it. They say its progressive. Ive lived that for sure. Hope you are ok today. What about the support group or GA or counselling. Might be a good time to be round others with the same problem. Hope to see you post soon. Hows the kitty cats ?

    Hi Liz
    So happy you are with family lately and doing lots of things. A new home is so exciting. Wow. I am glad you and your grandson feel some closure with spreading hubbys ashes. It must have been hard. You are so brave Liz and I feel proud of you. You will be so busy.

    Today a cloud hung over my head. I didn’t focus on the cloud but the ray of sunshine peeping through.

    Hi there… sounds like things are a bit topsy turvy for you right now. I was suprised you mentioned you could move back to the country. Are you regretting moving now? I guess you just have to do what is best for you. I would hate to hear of you going through all that emotional abuse again. Are you still gokng to counselling? I think you have been very brave and if this new chapter is not working you can always try a different one when the time is right. How are those cats? I am glad you haven’t gambled through any of this. Glad you have family around you too. Sounds like you had a good time with them recently.

    Hi ican
    So pleased the wedding went well.it sounded wonderful. Those urges can be nasty. Keep putting off the idea when it comes up. When it does. Get busy with anything. Distract that focus and it will pass. Good for you. Keep going ican

    I have read your thread. You have done really well. Its good you are moving forward. The simple things are the best. Love how you are accepting you are a CG and you are aware that no win will satisfy. We always lose when we gamble and we lose more than money. I lost my sanity. Hopefully I find it again hehe

    Hi Cat. I used to love that movie the neverending story. Our recovery is a journey and a neverending one I agree. I love how you are living in each day. Living with the day at a time motto. it is easy to say not as easy to live sometimes but you are doing it. I love how far you have come. Hope to one day bump into you in chat.
