    This is also not my first attempt. I would like to think I finally hit rock bottom but you won’t really know for sure. All you can do is take things one day at a time. Try and keep a clear head. I know myself k have a tough time just sitting and doing nothing so i picked up a third job lol.

    You never remember the feeling when your in it all you have is the high and adrenaline rush. And the classic “I will figure it out” until you can’t figure it out anymore

    Please know you are not alone. I recently opened up to my wife and told her I had been gambling AGAIN for the second time after stopping for a year. I got to the point of writing suicide notes for all of my family because I could not face what I did. It is the worst feeling I have ever had with no explanation as to why I did it knowing the end…[Read more]

    I’m so sorry you relapsed. I currently did also. Borrowing money from people because I couldn’t pay my bills. The depression is REAL!! It’s definitely real.

    I’m here if you need to talk

    • Hi Brittany. Yesterday I chat with a couple of wise people on here. I’m hopeful. I got the GA One Day at a Time book on Kindle. I’m right where I need to be. I’m addicted to be always doing something. Yesterday I gave my consciousness a listen. It’s been awhile. I need to listen more to that higher power. This is not my first attempt. But…[Read more]

    I am literally going through the same thing right now. I had so much guilt for the last few months borrowing money from people because I gambled it all. Drinking to try and forget about what I did. I haven’t gambled in a few months but it’s always in front of me. But just because I haven’t gambled doesn’t mean I’m not paying for it now. It’s a ho…[Read more]

    Hi everyone. I am new here and just wanted some people to talk to that may actually understand. I currently came clean and told my wife I had been gambling now after messing up the first time I did it again. It hurts so bad because I don’t even know why I do it.

    • You need a hobbie that gets you around people like working out. I gambled because I was bored or lonely.

    • Good day to start again. For you. ❤️You’re not alone in this for sure.

    • I think it’s really good you are able to share with your wife. Your not alone and reading posts from other people sharing in the same struggles. I find really helps me. It’s a swift reminder. And also some understanding which I think we all need. Hugs.
