I’ve gotta start this journey today and never go back again. I’m close to losing everything. I always say one more time and it’s never that.

  There are a few things you have to accept, firstly that you cannot gamble casually, secondly that the attraction is in the anticipation of the win, not the win itself, winning is only fleeting moment and merely represents more playing time. Thirdly, learn to understand why you think like you do. Scroll down to my post on GAMBLING ADDICTION there are a few pointers there that may help you understand how your mind works in respect to gambling, the more you understand about how your mind works the easier it is to control your habit. Please like if you think it has helped.

  Hi Justin, I am on Day 6 of my recovery. You can do this. I have been working the 12 steps. https://12step.org/references/12-step-versions/ga/ I think of progress over perfection and journal each evening any progress for the day. I admitted I am a compulsive gambler (cg). I rely on my HP, God, to help me. However, your HP can be the gamtalk group, GA, or something else. I can tell you my mind is at peace. I feel better. I know it is going to be a long road, but gamtalk can help. Chat is helpful for me, talking to everyone and staying in touch.
