thanks for your post.
i have shut down the online accounts, placed a blocker on the computer , and constantly reminding myself that i do not gamble. If i was able to tell myself before that i needed to gamble, i cant see why i cant tell myself I don’t. I am aware the temptations will always be there, but I hope I can get myself strong enough to see them as unnecessary distractions to my future self. We live in a world that has become full of instant gratification in most ways. Like, you need to have this, the latest that, the newest model, but its just like what gambling was … its never enough, so, I am simplifying myself. Can i function without gambling- absolutely. I did yesterday, I did today, and I will tomorrow. Its not instant, but it will last.
