hey josh, noticed you just recently joned, hope it helps ya out some. I found this site by accident and after finding it, only came on when I was in a panic over spending too much at my latest trip to the casino. The other people in your life wont understand what its like because they havent lived it, the people here can relate to you because they been thru the same thing. It was a real eye opener for me to come here and read other peoples storys, I went years thinking I was the only person stupid enough to wreck my life because of a stupid F,n machine. I guess what caught my eye on your journals was you were using the little red I feel horrible thing. That little red horrible feeling guy face was me so many times because of gambling until I self excluded last December. I was looking at my check book check register thing from last year, my car payment is due on the 9th of the month, there were times I wasnt making my car payment untill like the 24th of the month. Its been a while sinse that happened and I dont want to go back to them days. well gettin late off to bed hope you can change that horribe face real soon.
