Hi Marcus…congratulations on your great sobriety:)
Yes … you have proven it can be done, and it is definitely an inspiration to all of us!
You’ve made a great point when you say we can never enjoy a bet…
It’s too toxic:
If we win a bet, we want to win again! If a bet is lost, then for sure, we want to get back and bet again to make up for our loss, it is always some kind of revolving door or a vicious circle🙁
But the good news is once I/we know this ..
We can work
On not making that 1st bet; distracting and denying that bet
By keeping busy with hobbies..:
Talking with people..posting here…
Having said all this…
I should follow my own advice….
Anyways!
Congrats on a great milestone…
And thanks for proving good
Sobriety can be
Achieved!
