    Ken I read your post about self love and I was amazed how it felt so tough to consider! Even though I know that it’s evident I have given money to gambling for years which wrecked my ability to treat myself and others to a better life. So many regrets. I have not gambled on scratches for about two months. Some people at work bully me and offer t…[Read more]

    • Hi Steve
      Not sure whether it is legal or not to push tickets but I know when the lottery jackpots are high the store people remind you
      to buy a tickets because if they sell a winning ticket they get a percentage of the winnings.

    I had a dream last week I walked up to the counter where the scratch tickets are and I saw a little demons laughing at me from around the edge of the counter that helps

    Hello Ken
    I’ve been reading the posts every day since I stopped coming here the self pity postings helped me consider what’s going on, as I know, I used to have a victim compass I guess I still do.
    People here of help reconsider the 649 and the lotto max, well actually any lottery game someone had help me think about stopping those but my tro…[Read more]

    I’m sheepishly back, head down back to stopping and scratching lotto I’m almost at the place where I cringe after I buy scratches. After I don’t win I writhe around in my car maybe even buy more before I get home. I won small amounts. Like5-50 so that was enough to make me think I would be ok and offered myself permission to keep on going. It al…[Read more]

    Trying again
    I just deleted a post by accident.
    That’s probably a good thing it was too long
    I am trying again to stop.. my inability to control work pressures and toxic environment. Offer me to much pressure so I’ve had three months of gambling.., not quite as bad as before, but still made a good dent in my savings. Last night I walked away fro…[Read more]

    • Hi Steve I think half the battle is figuring out why a person gambles.
      And yeah a good part of it like you mentioned a person feels like money is owed to a person.
      And even though it’s willing spent in hopes of getting some money back. It’s a vicious cycle. The winner being the government or the casino.
      The other half is figuring out how to sto…[Read more]

    Congratulations way to go you must feel more grounded and lighter and your spirit

    • Thank you Steve.
      Feeling grounded is a good word. I do feel more sure of myself and confident that I am able to do the right thing for myself.

    Lisa I get that way after an argument or when people slight me at work and of course, I feel worse after I gamble to try and recover from that. Hang in there Lisa

      Gambling seems to numb the pain temporary. I’m so hurt that my brother would leave the family. I have a small family. I’m just devastated. I’m trying not to gamble.

  • Steve posted a new activity comment 1 years ago

    This is me at work I don’t feel supported, so I complain to myself about everything this is come from gambling? Maybe the not winning part of gambling grows discontent? But what I do at Work isn’t really. appreciated. I feel odd saying I don’t feeling grateful. Instead, I feel like a victim of the system. Anyway, these posts are making me think…[Read more]
