I understand what you’re saying Durr and I think humility is a great trait but I just want everyone to know that there is no shame in asking for help. This is a very clever and sneaky addiction that GAINS power by isolating you and hijacking your mind. In turn your addiction LOSES power when you share your problems and surround yourself with p…[Read more]

That’s wonderful JeSotnas. This thing is not going to let you go without a fight and it’s very clever. It waits for a weak moment to try and hijack your mind so stay present. ❤️❤️❤️

Community 1 years, 3 months agoThere are no shortcuts to recovery. I need to do the right thing even when no one is watching. Stopping gambling is just the tip of the iceberg. Discipline and Integrity are the gateways to real freedom. It’s all an inside job and I know if I focus on getting my inside right then eventually my outside will fall into place…..it’s just a matte…[Read more]

Did you know that when you were a baby learning to walk that you fell an average of 17 times an hour before you finally mastered walking??…. Use the knowledge and experience from this relapse to revise and shape your new plan of recovery. You are that much closer to mastering this thing my friend. And it takes a lot of courage to pull yourself b…[Read more]

Cool Serenity! ….I feel like a good hair stylist becomes an amateur psychologist because clients often tell you their deepest darkest secrets.😂😂

…..so I’d think it would benefit your boss to help to resolve any issues amongst his workers to achieve a more cohesive group. Just my thoughts.

Not sure what type of business you’re in but I owned a hair salon for 20 years with 12 employees and one thing I know for sure is the success of my business relied heavily on the quality of the relationships between the people I employed. A happy team always made my profits increase Customers could feel the good energy when they walked in.

Hi Steve! We both know that gambling isn’t going to solve our problems. It’s just an escape. The good news is you’ve identified the behavior of some of your co workers as a major trigger for you. What great progress!! A trigger is always an opportunity for you to heal something inside yourself. You are on the right track exploring the idea of se…[Read more]

Is this what you want your life to be about stephann? Do you want your obituary to read “she spent most of her life being a slave to her addiction”?? If you let this addiction take over stephann it won’t just take your money……It wants your happiness and your dignity too. It wants to isolate you from all the people that love and care about you…[Read more]

Hi MommaCarolWV! … My kids are also grown and have all spread their wings. It felt like I was stuck between the ending of one chapter and the beginning of another. But I ended up revisiting an unfulfilled childhood dream that has reignited my passion and filled that empty space. You raised your kids and now it’s your turn. What lights you up and…[Read more]

Thank You! Definitely don’t want gambling to be my next chapter! My kid’s give me joy, and I hate that they are disappointed that I am gambling again. I need to figure out what happiness looks like for me, right now I don’t have anything that brings me great joy. That has to change, for my sanity.

Yes kenl……I’m in the process of paying back my gambling debts and the bills serve as a good weekly reminder of all the damage my addiction has caused. Proof that it’s no longer the place I want to be. For me personally if I filed bankruptcy and had a clean slate financially at this point in my recovery I’d go back.
