Hi Sarah
You are right it’s up too ourselves. Support from other people is important also we need it.
Welcome.
As you are likely aware there are very nice people here sharing a (our) journey too recovery from gambling.
Receiving money is a trigger for me too gamble also.
So it’s either a high degree of discipline or figuring out ways not to be able too spend the money you earned in the casino.
Really I suppose there’s options. Someone you can trust can hold your money, or it is possible too self exclude and possibly there’s other options.
I get the being alone part. That was party what kept me going too the bars or the casinos was the company.
I’m happy too say it’s been over three years that I haven’t gone. And I started that off by self excluding myself. I think that was for two years. When that time was up I had too write to be able too return. They host concerts and things and I thought if something should come up I’d like too be able to go.
I received permission too enter again that’s has too be going on nearly two years now.
I haven’t been back though.
It’s online gambling that I turned too after that. I’m working on staying away it’s day 29 for me today.
At first I found it very difficult but as the days go by that has subsided some. There’s nothing easy about stopping gambling it takes so much will power and planning what will work.
It’s one day at a time. So important.
