Community 14 hours, 27 minutes agoWhy is thinking right so important? Example, life knocks us down again. We want to think about our (bad) options. If we don’t think about the Philippians command to “Think about these things, we will think in ways that start the big slide. Instead, consider often asking yourself this question:
“How can I think toward love?” If you are angry…[Read more]

Buggy it’s good that you were doing well.
You had a slip. and it didn’t go well. It usually doesn’t and that’s always a hard lesson to learn.
Brush yourself off and stick to your conviction to stop gambling.
It’s unfortunate how quickly a person can forget why they wanted to stop in the first place.
Get help if you can and think it’s warr…[Read more]

One day is all it takes, one day to put yourself further behind than before. One day to break someones final trust. One day that adds up with the thousands of others to take you into the pit of destruction and regret. One day that takes months to recover from. Sometimes we wish we could hit the rewind button and undo all the wrong choices we made.…[Read more]

Community 6 days, 17 hours agoI was able to stay away from gambling for 2 weeks and spent my money on other things besides gambling but 2 days ago I gambled.

Hi Jenny
I know the draw but I also know the outcome. Even if a person dies win it’s hard to stop or it goes back in short order.
The conclusion behind instead of ahead. I know it’s really hard to stay away but I hope you do. It sounds like you make decent money good for you ! One day at a time.

The million-dollar question is, can we annihilate gambling? Gambling thoughts lead to ruin. Consider praying:

Community 2 weeks agoA lot of time should be spent working on quitting. Many people spend 25 minutes at this site. That is smart. But only a few understand that it is just as important to work on something every hour that you can. Obviously, if you are busy at work this does not apply. But if you have tons of time to think about triggers at work, taking 1 minute to…[Read more]

Thank you for your kind and thoughtful response. Everything you said is spot on . I appreciate you 🙏

I am trying to get out of the isolation. This morning my roommate needed to make a few deliveries for his business and asked if I would go along. I would have said no most of the time and isolated in my room but today I said ok because I do know I need to get active in order to stop the negative thoughts. It worked . It was a good day for me. 😊

Thats great Dan. You are stronger than you think. You can do this. When I read your post I read that you undertand the position you are in. You understand your actions habe consequences and you undertand you need to change. That my friend is what you need to bring those changes about. I believe you are capable.

Thank you 🙏

Glad you had a good day. And it’s good you went on the field trip. Keeping your mind on something else always helps. Skipped my ga meeting tonight but the fish were biting a little after work. Hope you have another good day tomorrow
