Has anyone found that they can stop going to the casino without attending GA? I attended a meeting a few months ago and it felt so wrong for some reason. Hard to explain but I felt so uncomfortable and out of place. Is that a normal reaction? Can I do this successfully on my own?

  My experience has been that it is very hard to recover on our own.
  Before you write off GA completely try some more meetings and try to be open minded. In my room we offer new members the GA refund policy’.We ask the new member to give us their pain and misery attend meetings and not gamble for 90 days. And if after the 90 days they aren’t happier then when they came into GA we will give them back their pain and misery.
  Most don’t ask for the refund and stick around.

    Like Ken says, the door swings both ways in GA
