Gambling has ruined my life
#5
Hi Gary,

We have a lot in common. The meetings are listed here on t'internet, just look to your right and click your mouse on the region nearest to you (North East down to Scotland as listed). A drop down list of meetings will then appear in alphabetical order of town/city name. Clicking on one takes you to the address and clicking on the blue writing gives you a map - neat eh? <!-- s:mrgreen: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":mrgreen:" title="Mr. Green" /><!-- s:mrgreen: --> All paperless. <!-- s:mrgreen: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":mrgreen:" title="Mr. Green" /><!-- s:mrgreen: --> Not all the on line revolution alluded to by "newhope" is negative. The internet has revolutionised most things in life (including gambling). It is possible to lose a fortune, literally in a click. You can phone the helpline as given by Matt. The important thing to do is to get to a meeting. Have you "taken a trip to GA" yet? If not, today is a good day to do so. Today is Friday, I used to get paid weekly in a brown envelope on a Friday (i'm not that old, up North some firms still do that <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> ) then I would go and have a couple of beers, probably put a few pounds in the bandit and wobble off home. Saturday was my main gambling day and I never worked overtime on a Saturday afternoon. As things escalated, every day I had money became a good day for a bet (and I was using a giro not a wage packet), I just needed to tinker a bit with my "system" <!-- s:roll: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt=":roll:" title="Rolling Eyes" /><!-- s:roll: --> and then i'd be a millionaire. If you cannot get today, don't wait for next Friday go as soon as you can. You will be made welcome and others will be pleased to see you. I have benefitted from typing this in, last night I benefitted from attending a meeting and communicating face to face with other people who share my problem compulsive gambling.

There is no substitution for meetings. Get to one as soon as you can - today is a good day to go, after all you'd put a bet on today so why not go to a meeting instead?

Well hope this reaches you in good health.
