we're all in the same boat here- and HERE for each other
I'm a Vegas girl, too. Well, not exactly a girl anymore...I wish! I have 2 kids and one lil grand baby...well, she's not exactly a baby anymore, she's almost 3, and there's another one on it's way. So, yeah, I'm a grandma! lol I'm here for you, I can tell you how it was for me, when I was actively gambling, I understand. I can also tell how about the giant difference I've experienced, as a result of quitting. Here for you...grandma robin
My husband is a compulsive gambler too. Its a weird thing but it makes you feel betrayed and victimized. I would bet a lot of this is stress. I think getting him in to counseling where he can vent and let go of some of his anger would be a good route. Thats what I am doing and it is helping me get thru this resentment. I wish you luck and will keep you in my prayers. If he truly loves you he will come around.
Tell yourself, "Every time I place a bet my situation is going to become progressively worse, never better. Even if I should win a few dollars, I'll soon lose it back again, along with even more, and I'll slip ever deeper into the abyss. I am a compulsive gambler and I can NEVER gamble sucessfully."
