Hi lisbeth,
GT is a journal of sorts….yes newbies need support, but they also need to see that this addiction can be managed. I’m not one to talk, I’ve been very quiet for a long time. What i guess I’m trying to say is that just because we haven’t gambled for a while, there’s a little thing called life that throws challenges at us and i think new comers need to see how to deal with these challenges.
Everything you write is important, someone will take something from it. I wrote every single thought in my head on my journal for years. I would never have stayed gamble free for as long as I have without the support of the members here!
If you want to post, post!
It’s a good way to release.
You have been doing amazingly well under difficult circumstances.
Life after gambling is not easy. Sure, there is less stress to a degree, but family and financial difficulties still present themselves.
No running to the casino, no escape.
Learning to deal with life’s problems in a ‘non gambling’ way is something everyone needs to learn.
Your posts help more than you know!
I’m planning on being here a bit more…..I’ve been away too long!
Hope to see you around my lovely friend!
Love K xxx
