FULL MARKS TO MODERATOR

Posted by: @slowlearner

Hi,

Another incident on the chatline tonight or is it just me ?.  Someone who's struggling, really struggling with illness, Both mental & physical and the urge to find solace in gambling. What's the advice given ?." Stop feeling sorry for yourself". But respect to tonight's moderator who showed leadership & compassion who almost immediately pointed out the need to be sensitive & tolerant towards other people & their problems. Someone recently pointed out that recovery doesn't come in Small, Medium & Large standard sizes. 

On a more positive note we can be grateful for those who've been in recovery  for several years, whom through wisdom & personal experience chose not to make assumptions on someone else's mindset whilst making themselves approachable & taking a none judgmental view to anyone who requires advice. Lesson for today, We Never Know What Others Are Feeling Or Thinking.

Stay Strong & Stay Safe
