Hello. Well my last bet was 3/!6/23 so hopefully I am on the right path. I am struggling with how angry I am with myself, embarrassed, and hurting. I’m hoping to hear how other people stop and rebuild a life. I’ve made a mess out of mine.
14 days is a great start! I hope youre celebrating every day. Ive been a problem gambler for 20 years and im now 39. I think its ok to feel the emotions you are feeling. Ive felt similar to you. I think its important to sit and recognize those feelings. Just try your best to not let them dictate your day. I am only on day 2, but i truly feel that im ready to actually live. Something i feel i havent really done in 20 years. God bless. Sending you lots of love and support.
Welcome Pam
What worked for me after years of trying and slipping was counseling and weekly GA meetings
Also turned over all my bank and credit cards to my partner.
