    • Close Gambling Addiction & Recovery

      I live in a town with a casino less then 10 minutes away - This is my problem--- I get bored and off I go-- have tried to stop -- I tell myself there are 5 bars in town - I do not go there - why do I have to go to the casino-- I want to stop -- I want to retire in 2 years and that means I have to stop. I started off slow like everyone else - just fun - but have become a gambling binger --- Its all or nothing - then I can not go for awhile then off I go again I would appreciate anyones comments

    • Close Financial Challenges

      I have been very successful here at DS in the Gambling Addiction group --- I have been gamble free for over 13 months and it is mostly because of my friends and support here at DS. Now it is time to add another challenge and that is living credit card free - This is important to me with this challenging economy and my desire to retire by the end of 2009. I am setting this as a goal and am going to put my heart into it.

      I have a good job but have come to rely to readily on credit cards to take care of everything --- I am going to work on changing this part of my character and learn to live credit card free.
