    I also want to mention I told my oldest daughter a few months ago thought I was doing the right thing and since then she always find a way to throw it back in my face!! I hate that I told her! My son lives with me but I haven’t told him he knows I go the casino but he doesn’t know how bad of debt I’m in I just wish he was the kind of person I cou…[Read more]

    • Lenor – I imagine it’s hard to have your loved ones seemingly use information that you shared in trust as a way of attacking you, and the pain of wanting to confide in your son but not feeling like you can. I hope there are others in your life (and I’d guess there are) that you can safely confide in and will support you. That said, lean on thi…[Read more]

    • I’m so sorry that has happened, I truly know those feelings you’re describing. The anger at myself, the shame, feeling at a loss at what to do now. I have to believe what others in recovery have said, we are not bad people, but we have a disease that can kill, and definitely destroy your life. I just need to keep finding help, meetings, maybe a c…[Read more]

    Day 6… I just wanted to share that I might possibly will be getting a dog to help me through my gambling addiction. Sounds crazy but I honestly believe this will help me to stay more focus on having this responsibility and knowing that I will have this dependent on me. I figured if I can use my money to gamble I can put it to better use by t…[Read more]
