When I first stopped gambling I was afraid to place another bet.
These days though my recovery isn’t based on fear, it’s based on acceptance.
I accept Compulsive gamblers can not gamble "normally"
I accept that I am a Compulsive gambler
I accept that as such i can not gamble normally
I accept that this means I can not place that next bet
