Having a good day. Reading the gambling stories for support. Gave my finances over to someone else. More open with family about my addiction. Should start gambling therapy on line soon. Not going with my friend gambling he still gambles alll the time makes good retirement and after payday has to borrrow money anyone and anywhere. I don’t let his gambling losses affect me anymore. He would borrow from me I make a lot less then would take my card with us so he could pay me back then we were at casino and I would gamble trying to get back money he borrowed. Finally realized his gambling was affecting me in a bad way ,so I quit going with him altogether. It feels so much better. I’m just reading and tv but so much better than being broke and stressed. Watching how addicted he has got actually had helped me. Because what he has to do for $2 after losing all his money on paydayÂ
