    Gambling is just the strangest thing. It affects your mind so deeply. When you are winning you don’t belive there is a problem. When you’ve lost your last cent you know there is. The mind shifts from moments of clarity to utter oblivion. Ones emotions are on a roller coaster which never stops. It takes a grip like no other and is as destructive as any drug. I have an amazing husband who supports me and stands by me. I cannot dissapoint him anymore and I need to start keeping my promises to him. My word stands on everything else so yesterday was the last day that I gambled. I am tired of dissapointing myself snd him. I pray that this time it will be different. This group helps me to see there is a way.out of gambling and that we can support one another. Its going to be a long month with no money. It wont be the first time bit hopefully the last. I can then focus on repaying my debt and moving on from this nightmare.
