For some addicts realise their a problrm early on others takes years if not decades to come to this conclusion the sad reality the damage of past actions can live with u and u may never be able to recover at my early stage of recovery at my Ga lost his business and had to remorgage his house at the time he was 12 years bet free and worked as a butcher his story didnt resonate with me at the time as i thought i wasent as bad i underestimated this addiction in terms of financial aspect the damage can be ever lasting yes i agree each case is different however the lasting effects can be life long he mentioned had he not gambled he would have retired in his 50s and now he has to work till retirement its only when i took my own recovery seriously i realised their no limits to the damage gambling can cause u cant turn back time what ever damage is done is done it doesnt have to get to rockbottom for some that rockbottom can be too deep to climb out start today and dont let the addiction take u further
