Hi Kin thanks for your comment. I haven’t wrote here for a few weeks I just didn’t really have alot to say the last while. I’m coming up on my 2 years gamble free this month so thats pretty awesome. I thought this time of year would be a bit of a trigger for me because ive always had the scratches at xmas. And my families mostly deceased and the ones I do have I’ve let go of out of my life. But I’m doing ok surprisingly. I’m trying to just take one day at a time without thinking about being upset. I still have people in my life, I’m not alone. I have my partner even though he drives me mental at the best of times and,I have good friends.I still am working at paying my debts off which I can afford to do more than I do. Ive just been so preoccupied with saving instead. I’m still trying to get over my fear of being broke ever again. I’m fortunate I have a good paying job but I have to keep telling myself that I need to stop saving so much and just get my debt down. It’s definitely been a fight I’ve had all year with myself. I feel like I’ve achieved my goal now to what I want saved. I used a bit of it to go on a trip so I spent this last month replenishing what I spend. But this month and most of next year I plan on just hunkering down and paying off everything I owe. That’s hard for me to say but it’s the responsible thing to do and I no once its gone ill be able to just relax a bit.
