We'll here I am again.

I think I can safely say that I have hit rock bottom.

I am 27 years old and have been gambling for about the past 7 years. My gambling has gradually been getting more and more out of control.

I have finally reached a point here I don't feel I can take it anymore.

I have spent almost all that I have and have increasing debts that are crippling me.

The irony is that I have a good job and make a good living. I waste it all gambling.

I need to stop, I have to stop. I am going to make this happen. I have to for my physical and mental health.

Today is day 0 tomorrow is day 1

Well today is day 1 of my recovery.

If yesterday was rock bottom I think today must be 1 inch above that.

Still feeling pretty cr** about everything. I can't stop thinking about the money and time wasted gambling. It really is quite depressing.

I have made it through day 1. Not difficult. I guess you can't gamble when there is no money.

Some things I need to do:

Stop gambling, pay off debts, start living a normal life.
