Close Gambling Addiction & Recovery
I have been gambling for about 2 years, my husband took me for the first time to show me how much fun you can have. At first I was very conservative and only spent 20 dollars...what happened to those days. I can spend half of our paycheck in one sitting! The only reason I don't spend more is because I still pay my bills. I am convinced that it is only time before I am spending rent money. This is becoming a problem between my husband and I.
