Now that i have had time to reflect and things are making alot more sense this time around some of the things i took for granted are making alot more sense i realised i had a problem quite early on since when i started going GA in 2010 however like alot of other people i never understood the severity of the addiction one of the guys at my Ga lost his home and his business and is still paying the concequences after being 12 years bet free i felt bad for him and in my head i honestly believed that would never be me it cost him his early retirement and even though his family forgiven him he never going to get the life he would have given his family even if he worked 100 years the point he made gambling addiction has no limits if your fortunate to realise u have a problem u have the opportunty to change your life since my last relapse and studying this addiction their few people even worse situation so if a wise person gives u advice dont take it for granted👍

its a humble reminder

 

 

I often think that although im unlucky in certain things in life.....i had a very varied life with lots of life experience........ but we are a result of our environment we are brought up in......

 

Thank god we are now in recovery....

 

I hope that man can however enjoy his retirement altho shorter it will be restfull should he continue in his recovery.....

 

thanks for making me grateful taz
