Everything I say is just my opinion and doesn’t make it right.
In all my years of living. The saying of two wrongs don’t make a right.
You for your own reasons started to gamble. It takes a person by surprise when they realize what was fun is not so fun anymore. It’s a roaring addiction. And it’s difficult to keep the lions fed.

eabadow22…. Serenity’s comment is very insightful. A couple of things stand out to me… 1. Your feelings of guilt and that you are responsible for everything that’s happened and your husband is the ‘victim’.. My opinion ‘while you are responsible for gambling you are a victim too. Gambling is an addiction and you need support . 2. One hope…[Read more]

Well said Serenity and Lindy

I can feel your pain…. When one has been married for as long as you, there can usually be ‘some’ communication… For some reason your husband can’t see beyond disappointment etc. I’m sure you’ve likely tried to call him or see where he is. If you do know… I might suggest writing out your thoughts in a letter… You are being very hard on…[Read more]

I totally feel you my dear. I am at a loss too. I have postpartum depression and I have this addiction. We are the same. Online bettinb got me. I hope we can get past this.

Eab I completely understand. I’m so sorry that it didn’t go better and you didn’t have the support you needed. I know that awful shame and it’s so hard what it does to a relationship. I have been married ten years and relapsed. I haven’t come clean and every time I see him I think about what I am doing to him. The one thing I see about your stor…[Read more]

I’ve read your post several times. You are going through a lot. You need to stay on course. I’m not sure if you’ve taken any measures to do that. A gambling addiction will tend to pull you back.

Sometimes we are our own worst critic. I’m sorry you are struggling. I have been where you are. It may not seem like it now but the days do get better. This really is a one day at a time thing.
The best thing that I did was remove the temptation by joining my state’s responsible gaming database. I am not even able to log onto an online…[Read more]

Regret is one of the most powerful emotions. What is making you say all of that is regret.

Everything can be fixed with time. No matter how much money you lost at a given point you didn’t have it and managed to work and rebuild ur finances. Finances can always be rebuilt. What’s crazy is do you ever notice that money obtained from your job for…[Read more]

Your relationship can be repair but it takes time and important for you to be open honest and transparent.
And finding counseling and attending GA meetings can help your partner know you are serious about recovery.
God Bless

I’m sorry you and your family are going through a rough patch. I hope your husband can understand.
With every post I read I dislike gambling more and more. It hurts the people who gamble and the people they love.
We need to hold onto the strength we have to change that.
Online gambling it too easy Gamban is a really good blocker. But know it b…[Read more]
