    I know you get sad. I do too. But your children love you. Your not perfect. Just remember God didn’t put eyes at the back of your head for a reason, to not look back. You can’t change the past. Just pick yourself up, brush yourself off and keep trying. Nobody knows our pain. We are our worst enemies. I’m here for you. We can do it. At least we…[Read more]

    • I’m really trying to do that..one day at a time. It’s just sometimes it’s overwhelming and I am just ‘sad’… As time goes on I imagine I’ll adjust…. Thanks for taking time to respond Joyce…

    Keep believing! You are wonderful and strong! We got this. Take one day at a time. If you fall get back up and try again. Keep in touch. Joyce

    Definitely keep the faith. Remember when we young and learned how to ride a bike. We would fall, cry, get back up and try again till we finally mastered it. Or the time we tried to learn how to drive. We kept trying, messing up and trying again. We didn’t give up. We figured out a way. That’s what we need to do this time. It is just really tough.…[Read more]

    • Thank you so much. I just realised I had to by all force get help. I’m down and sad but I believe with time I will heal

    Thank you. Please share. Joyce

    Me too. You need a virtual meeting when you are at your worst because when a virtual meeting comes up days later you feel strong and in a different mood. I was listening this morning to always stay positive to overcoming this addiction. Don’t give up. Just keep being strong. You got this. If others can do it we can also. Joyce

    Betty, end it because it gets harder and harder the longer you are into it. Stay on this chat for encouragement and strength. Pray hard too. Joyce

  • joycems619 posted a new activity comment 1 years, 5 months ago

    Please stop now. It only gets worse. Stay away from gambling. You will not win. Trust us. It’s awful and you increase your losses as you keep doing this. Joyce

    Benjamin if it makes you feel better you can’t go to jail for not paying your bills. I feel your pain but you can stop. Just keep talking to us online so we can figure this out. We will break this together. Joyce

    Keep hanging on. Don’t let go. I know it is a constant battle. I only wish the people you interact with could relate because you feel worse when they look at you with disappointment. Christmas is hard for many. Maybe try volunteering and use your energy there. Pull out your strength and don’t look back. Your eyes are in the front of you. There’s a…[Read more]

    Hello Ashlynn, You are not alone. Remember you are not perfect. You got this and don’t look back. That’s why our eyes are in the front of our bodies because we can’t look back. It will eat us up with guilt and sorrow. Focus on what you have control with. It’s really terrible how much I have lost. I even sold my engagement ring like 10 years ago…[Read more]

    • Because Joyce… it’s an ‘addiction’ Some people don’t recognize it as an illness but it is… Just reach out for help wherever you can.. and realize you can overcome… you ‘can’ !

    Gambling won’t get you out of debt. Do it the right way. I am 90k in debt and I cry because I want to get out of debt but gamblng won’t do it. I have tried so many times and it’s not working. Can you file bankruptcy. Just stop gambling. It makes us sick.

  • joycems619 posted a new activity comment 1 years, 6 months ago

    Thank you. I feel encouraged. Hopefully I will when I get paid. I hope my friends don’t call me and ask me to go anywhere because I weaken and I don’t want to.

  • joycems619 posted a new activity comment 1 years, 6 months ago

    Benjamin, I am your friend. Don’t let gambling win. You have alot to live for. Nothing last forever. You will stop gambling. Go to church and get help. Or there is hyposis for gambling. I hear the results are great. It’s so hard but don’t give up.

    • Hi Joyce thanks, There has been so many times I have tried to stop. Most of the times I wish I started trying before I accumulated this much debt. I know I can stop gambling but I dont how to clear this debt.
