Forum members who post in the 'Family and friends' section of our forum, are often people who have suffered due to the behaviour of someone with a gambling problem. Although painful experiences can prompt people to join the forum, when sharing support here, people often express warm, generous and wise aspects of themselves. The forum can create opportunities to learn from the experiences of others, and to witness progress in recovery from the affects of problem gambling. When posting here and reflecting on your own journey, perhaps recognising where you needed to make some changes in ways of relating to yourself or others, skills you developed or insights you gained, you are helping others to see how they too might take care of themselves. As Forum Admins we would like you to feel welcome to use this thread to mark any progress you feel you have made, particularly in terms of personal development or self-care, as your personal progress deserves acknowledgment, and allowing others to witness positive developments could help them to feel more inspiration and hope for their own potential.
Thanks,
Forum Admin.
