You didn’t plan for your daughters dog to be unwell. Also there’s no guarantee what ever the vet could do would save your daughters dogs life.
I feel you need to let that go.
Gambling is a very difficult thing to let go of. It is a process
Trying to figure out the why is huge
There can be different reasons. The want and need for more money. Unfortunately gambling takes more money than it gives. And the one in probably 20000 comes ahead and even that’s a maybe.
I think if a Perseus hard core addicted until a person can develop a stronger mind set to stay away from gambling self exclusion from gambling sites and places is a great aid. And really a relief to know you can’t spend on gambling. There are apps for on line gambling Gamban I feel is a really good one.
A person can join gamblers anonymous meeting in real life or online.
A lifestyle change is in order also. Possibly visiting people you care for. Finding something that can help keep your mind off of gambling.
Then a persons feeling of self worth begins to come back also. It’s to bad gambling can rob a person of that also.
I wish you the best in your plan to stop gambling and enjoy the life that you deserve.
thanks for the kind words. there are gamblers anon meetings near me but I’m not a fan of the step program which they seem to embrace near me. def agree a lifestyle change is in order.
by my daughter (dog’s life) I meant my dog was my daughter. we did everything together. she was the only one in this world I could truly trust and count on. true I’m not sure what would have happened after surgery but the fact that I couldn’t even do the surgery for her due to the loss of my money from my gambling addiction really eats at me everyday. we were extremely close; she was amazing. anyhow some people don’t understand and that’s ok but yeah there’s more to the story as I was advised about her problems and put them off. I hate myself. have a way out at least which is reassuring.
You meant your daughter passed away. I’m so very sorry. That’s not your fault either. There would again be no guarantee the surgery would have worked. It is tragic your daughter isn’t in your life anymore. She would want you to be happy, I think you should seek counselling Losing a person you are so close to takes time to feel better again. There really isn’t words for me to use to express how sorry I am for your loss. Hugs
