I just joined today and I last gambled 2 days ago, I have been gambling on and off for years and the longest i stopped gambling was 12 years. I have been going to G.A for a few years now and i did stop for 2 years but i have gone through a tough few months and i started again 3 months ago. I have put up barriers like i have been told in G.A but i have bypassed them a few times. I am getting tired of trying to push the people what want to help me as i they will end up getting to the point that they will stop helping me. I do like going to G.A but it feels at times i am not taking it seriously and stop going, but i know it does help me and at times i think i can stop gambling if i miss a few meetings but i know i need to keep going to them. Sometimes i think do i really want to stop gambling and it has gotten to the point that i really want to stop full stop. So i need to keep going to the Meetings and be truthful with my feelings and hopefully i can and will stop for good.
Hi Royt,
Welcome to the Forum!
I noticed that you have also started a recovery diary and I hope that you will find it useful to write about your progress. Maybe you would also like to think about joining us in one of the chatrooms, where you can meet other members and exchange ideas there? It would be good to see you there.
All the very best on your path to recovery!
Kind wishes
Gabriele
