    I am 5 days away from being 30 days gambling free. The last 2 weeks have been so trying. So many pressures and life stressors are hitting my family and I it feels so hard to keep my head above water some moments. As they often do those trying times trigger the temptation to take up what used to be my escape. My destructive, ruthless coping mechanism. Everytime I hear those “whispers” I remind myself of what I lost or almost lost. Not the money and other financial stuff but the things I can’t buy with money. Those are the things I have to fight for. I pray every night God will give me the strength to be who I truly am, not a person ruled by compulsion and destructive behavior. I pray this for all of you as well and I hope together we can rediscover our true selves. God bless and goodnight, you are not alone.
