Thank you for your support. One thing that has helped me tremendously already is some advice I read on another thread. I forget how it was worded, but it said something along the lines of “You will never win if you are a compulsive gambler, because even if you win, it won’t ever be enough.” That really hit me. It’s true. I could win $5, but then I want $20. I could win $20, but I want $50, etc. Honestly, I never thought of it that way. It is the first thing that has made something “click” in my brain and made me snap out of it a little bit. I am on Day 3, and no urges so far.
