Hi
The Gambling indicted that I Had certain unhealthy emotional triggers and some very unhealthy habits.
habits.
By entering the recovery prgram was over coming my fears and reducing my unreasonable expectations of people situations.
Being committed to my recovery was in time self rewarding.
People who are not addicts will often say all you have to do is stop Gambling.
The recovery prgram helped me abstain from my unhealthy addiction.
The question asked if you are a sane person why work hard for your money and then give it complete strangers while I and my family suffer in pains and in fears.
The recovery prgram helped me abstain from gambling and to reduce being angry and reesentful for so long.
The longer I worked my recovery the rewards were much healthier living and better realtionships.
It is down to Just for today I will not gamble.
It is down to Just for today I will be the healthiest person I can be today.
In my recovery program I Learned to love my self and to love other people.
In my recovery program I Learned to respect my self and then learned to respect other people
Healing peace and healthy lives to you all.

Hi
When I walked in to the recovery I did not knowor understand how emotionally vulnerable I was.
Peoplle often think that the addiction is the problem.
For me the addiction just indicated how emotionally vulnerable I use to be.
For me the addiction just indicated that I had certain emotional triggers.
Sadly I did not know how much fear I use to live in.
Thank You
