Hi Bettie
So sad to read of the loss of your friend.. and all the things been going on, ive been out there again Bettie, just when i thought i had it, i guess i may never get it.. but i am back here with a serious mind problem.. looks like step one never really settled.. i was so sure but lost access to computer for almost a month and couldnt get to GA due to mum being sick.. guess it took its toll when i had cash in the hand and wrong set of circumstances.. now my mind is totally back to the start and i am trying to accept the problem for what it is again, like being a baby again.. think you have done the most awesome job ever Bettie and i hope you have a lovely day today.. be starting a post again soon..

Hi Kathryn
Glad to hear all is well… you do such fun things, think that has been my downfall trying to save every penny and not really living, maybe if i did some fun things i wouldnt want to gamble so much.. bet you will have a ball catching up with your bestie.. gotta say i admire you our wonder woman!!! You are able to do things now in your life because you are not gambling.  I on the other hand am still fighting that monster and it appears to be winning at this point.. I even went in to a venue i was excluded from so I am kind of glad now they dont have the state thing here.. something i never thought i would do.. shows how mad this addiction is.. crazy when theres hundreds of places i could have gone but it was the closest and i was in a desperate state of mind.. hope one day i can find the strength like you have to beat this thing… will be back soon with a new thread.. sick of climbing through the pages of the things i say that are so hypocritical.. anyway looks like you copped my post this morning haha.. hope you have an awesome time with your friend when she returns, have a good rest after your long shift..

Hi Kathryn had to have a giggle about the soup episode !!! glad things are set straight with the hubby.. i know what you mean about wondering how some people afford things, for me , if i dont gamble i save well because i have zero social life, i dont go out for dinner , to social things etc yesterday was going to go out for coffee, a rarity but ended up a disaster of a day better to stay in next time haha.. its easy to get used to living on little after we have gambled i think for me anyway…as long as my boy has everything paid for i am happy! you sound like you have been a bit stressed and were in pain a few posts ago hope its all sorted now.. anyway our wonder woman thanks for being an inspiration on this forum! see you round P – Living and Learning

Hi Geordie
Your enthusiasm makes me smile because i feel the same.. we must have both found the secret elixir to this.. for us anyway!  I was always fighting urges every single time i tried to stop.. im not fighting Geordie and it feels wonderful.  I have been thinking well, i just cant gamble thats all there is to it, it is something i can no longer do.  Maybe all those ***** ago wasnt rock bottom enough for me.  I hope its not just the honeymoon period they talk about, for me though i feel this is it and i am hanging on to it for as long as possible.. good on you Geordie, you have changed your life I can see the difference in your posts too.  You are a different person to the one posting before.  We can travel this gamble free journey together.. god let this feeling stay!!!

Coming here Scott is the first thing, looking for help.  You will find heaps of help here, try the groups, talk to one on one advisors, look at timetable on home page to right.. you need to log in and click on flag of your country to see what time things are on for you.. keep reading here, try to remember what we discussed on chat.  Give your wife control of finances.  Get to GA, keep coming here and reading and posting.  You have begun Scott just by seeking.  See you soon
