@287hzyl0pq some of the story on this forum are very sad some of them have close to 6 figure salary and they are in huge debt, they can easily live a very comfortable lifestyle however gambling has taken everything away from them and because they earn so much they can get in ever highter debt so they become finanically more worse of then a regular person working on minium wage, personally last couple of years i didnt enjoy gambling it so addictive and can easily drag u back when i havent gambled i have had a comfortable life gambling isnt for me it destroy me everytime i have a relapse and this time it got me in debt in over a decade it time for me to take it seriously and find another hobby to spend my money and time on
Hi
My emotional triggers caused me to react in some very unhealthy ways.
IT took me along time to learn that I needed to reduce my fears adn heal my pains.
Sadly we can often be very hard on our self.
In the recovery program we find out that we are just emotionally vulnerable.
I was not a bad person.
I was not a supid person.
I was not a evil personÂ
I would change my life around so that I did not react in such unhealthy ways.
I would find a way to exchange my unhealthy habits in to healthy habits.
It toom me along time to understand that I was just emotionally vulnerable and start to heal my life and my self.
Love peace and healing to every one.
