    One day is all it takes, one day to put yourself further behind than before. One day to break someones final trust. One day that adds up with the thousands of others to take you into the pit of destruction and regret. One day that takes months to recover from. Sometimes we wish we could hit the rewind button and undo all the wrong choices we made.…[Read more]

    Not sure who may be needing this message so im just putting it out there. Jehova Jira my provider. His grace is sufficient for me. This is profound for me. Even when we mess up and do stupid things. God is still our provider and his grace is sufficient for us. I had wasted all my money and knew that the rest of the month would be long until I…[Read more]

    Thanks Dan we will all help each other. Our actions will be our own but we have a safe place to speak to others in the same situations.

    Thats great Dan. You are stronger than you think. You can do this. When I read your post I read that you undertand the position you are in. You understand your actions habe consequences and you undertand you need to change. That my friend is what you need to bring those changes about. I believe you are capable.

    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…[Read more]

    I understand. Im in exactly the same boat. Hadnt played in a while then gave in won lots and lost it all again with more. I feel so angry at myself no words can explain.

    • Literally what I did! I always need to keep going for more! I’m so damn mad at myself it’s unreal! I shouldn’t be surprised but I am , I’m surprised I’m this damn thick headed and stupid! I’m ruining my life and everyone around me including my kids. It’s horrible.
      I’m so

      • I unfortunately know this experience all to well.. I’ve been dealing with a gambling addiction for decades. Here is what I have learned. The situation you are in can’t be changed right now. It happened and no amount of stress and beating yourself will change it. In order to start to go in a positive direction and heal from this you have to get som…[Read more]

        • Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I know you are so right. I just keep thinking what’s going to happen when the bills and mortgage come in and the money is gone . I so appreciate all the feedback.. this is a lonely place . I keep thinking that no one in their right mind would throw away this much money in one night, especially someone living p…[Read more]

          • 1st your not alone. It’s a shitty place to be. I’m only sharing my experiences and what I’ve learned in order for me to survive. I want more for you eventually but it’s important for you to survive right now. You can start on fixing the shit later. For you and your family

  • bbgirl posted an update in the group Group logo of CommunityCommunity 2 months ago

    Okay so I have been playing online games for a while now. There seems to be moments of clarity however when online all sense of reason seems to escape me. I am tired of the sleepless nights trying to recuperate losses and the feelings of despair and disappointment in myself and to others. I have blocked my online profile this morning with the…[Read more]
