      I think we need a group for people who are doing well in recovery but maybe still need extra support . The other groups often have a person in crisis (not criticising – it was often me ) and the people who want to talk about a difficult patch in their recovery don’t alway manage To get the support they need . It’s kind of similar to if U post u are doing really well u might get a response or two . If you post you had lost your months wages everyone offers you advice .

      It’s good that people do this but staying in recovery is really hard at times too.. And it might be nice to have a group just for those people . After all no matter how long we are in recovery we are still compulsive gamblers ..
