Beautiful country. I understand that this forum will be your only avenue of support. Read the members stories and it will give you a good idea of what this addiction can do to you. Be thankful that you have stopped gambling at this stage. A lot of GA members like the saying "One Day At A Time"... Keeping it this simple, means that you are not putting too much pressure on yourself. For today I will not gamble! The days will add up. The urge to gamble will decrease. Your self worth will gradually return, and you will come to like yourself again. Best wishes & keep posting Roy |
