Day 10 GF and accepting the debt!

Double figures today "10 days gamble free" !  Today I went through the painful task of adding up my debt due to my gambling and formed a budget to pay it off. Man, its so painful to see the numbers right in front of your eyes and you just think, how did i manage to be so stupid, are these numbers real or am I just dreaming? The question in my mind is how do you accept the financial lose and debt?  I know it will get easier over time but it is dam hard to accept it and see your good hard earnt money go to debt. I guess the plan is to just chip away until it is gone!
