Hello and welcome, you have made the first move and admitted that your gambling is unmanagable and out of control. This is an emotional illness that cannot be arrested on your own, you need to go back to GA and get back in to the program and this does not mean just turning up every week for a meeting. Those twelve steps to recovery have to be practised in all aspects of our life.
It takes work and being an intelligent person will alone not help us. I have seen people who could not string two words together come into the program and get it straight away and are still around after several years and their sharings at the meetings are usually very powerfull. 'Walk the walk' before 'Talk the Talk'.
You sound like you have a lovely family and they deserve the best from you.
Regards
Helen
