On the 30th March, it would be a year to the day my husband found out about my gambling. Back then I was so relieved it happened, Â a massive weight off my shoulders and a chance of a fresh start. I could finally breathe again.Â
But what have I done? Relapsed more times than I can even remember and no better off with the debt I racked up!
I feel so miserable that I’ve let this awful illness take another year from me!Â
Feeling sorry for myself yet again…?

We get knocked down and we pick ourselves up again. The first 5 years of trying to stop with GA meetings and taking it seriously and actively trying to stop helped a lot for me.Â
You just gotta keep fighting and wanting that mental free space where gambling is not on you're mind 24/7 and keep looking for support while also try helping others.
Are recovery journeys are not easy that's for sure but you can do this! We all get bumps in the road just dont let go and fall into the gambling void of despair.
