Got to keep putting in the effort
Made the Sunday night chat at 8
Monday has a change in the chat. Its introducing another slot. Now 7 and 9pm. Roll up to chat.
Such a big difference between being a problem gambler and an addict but much of the support and help is the same. I make sure i attend GA meetings, use counselling, keep the blockers in place, keeping my diary, etc. My family and friends are my rock. Honesty is not easy but its important for both them and myself.
night everyone.
Seems to me that a problem gambler is addicted to the process of placing a bet and what they get out of placing that bet. Just like everyone else in the GA room.
Keep working your recovery and stay safe, Tri.
BW,

That can be a part of it CW. what makes gambling addiction complicated is the progression the illness can take. Yes we may have the same illness but there are degrees of sickness.
Same sickness, different symptoms?
sure in the same way a person may have a burn that requires a little water on it and another person requires skin grafts.
2 meetings tonight in the chat?
thanks managed to work it out myself
sleep tight
Some times sleep evades
I use the time for a bit of reflection. Not always good, but reflection none the less.
Honesty
Thanks for your kind words. The death has affected Mrs Bal quite badly but we talk through it.
