- I just wanted to post this because I am sure there are things you do that trigger the need/want to gamble. I have been gamble free now for 9 months. We went out to eat and I had a few beers, well maybe a lot to drink. During this time I had such an...
- It has now been almost 8months since I have done any gambling. I have money in the bank, bills are paid and there is no longer any guilt, lies, cheating, stealing,sleepless night, tears, anger, depression and all the other feelings that go along...
- I know some of you probably will be offended by this but I read everyones post on a daily basis. I read a lot about forgiveness. I not sure if I agree. I think yes, forgiveness is good for the 1,2 and poss. third time gambling but if you con't to...
- Part of the gambling addiction is not addressing how much money we lose. Part of my healing process was to go back into all of my bank statements for the last year to see how much money I had lost. The amount that I lost made me sick. I could have...
- Sometimes I read everyone's post. I really wonder if this is a site to place thoughts, needs, desires to quit gambling. What I see is is repetition. If you really want to quit, it is necessary to take the steps to make that happen. Don't get me...
- Danimal, did you become a dealer to stop gambling or did it lead you to lose more money? I often thought if I could see the side of a gambler from a dealers perspective I might not want to gamble. I played blackjack and have sat with many people...
- Have you asked yourself this question? I bet many times but what is your answer? I do not feel I gamble because I feel like I am going to win. I gamble to forget what the real issue is. My issue is probably with my own unhappiness. I need to find...
- Well, it has been 2mo. without gambling. We almost went the other day to a casino which we really don't even like and is about 30mins away but found alternative things to do once we really thought about the consequences and how we don't really like...
- I am a compulsive gamler and have been for many years. I have seen sooo many stories and have felt the same way so many have felt. Tonight my husand suggested we go to the casino. Oh and how I really wanted to go, We drove around for a few miles and...
- It has been 3wks of being G/F and am loving it. The only thing is I received a letter from the IRS yesterday because I took money (lots of Money) out of my 401 k and didn't claim it on my taxes nor did I pay taxes on it in 2010. So, now I owe them...
- I just wanted to wish everyone a gamble free day and lots more. Keep up the good work and stay strong. As we know Gambling is only a progressive problem and never gets better until we get better and stop.
- Believe it or not. I really do not have any desire to gamble again. I absolutely despise what it has done to me. Made me lie, cheat and loose. There was and is nothing positive about it. The way I feel now, it will NEVER happen. I do not believe I...
- Well, it has been a week. I am still feeling very strong about not gambling. I am feeling so much disgust that I let myself down again 1 wk ago. The way I feel today is that I do not ever want to see the inside of a casino again. I have so many...
- I have come to the conclusion I have been hiding from some emotional issues. Gambling gave me the feeling of euphoria so I didn't have to think about what the real issues were in my life. So now I really need to come to grips with these emotions so...
- This has been a rough 2 days. I have felt the lowest of lows. I found this wonderful website and have read all of the posts. It has given me new ideas and thoughts. I know not everyday is going to be perfect but I feel like I am on the right path. I...
