As a CG, I know I can never gamble “normally” again RD.
I crossed the line of no return.
It takes time for that to sink in. It takes trial and error before we surrender fully.
It takes daily effort and will power to get to the point of admitting we are powerless over gambling.
For me, having small bets never worked. It escalated fast . Gambling is a progressive illness. I liken it to giving a stray cat food. She/he will keep come back for more.
We need to starve stray cats if we really want rid of them.
You have achieved a lot by taking the first steps RD. I applaud you for that.
Try not to take any backward steps. They can lead a CG to the pit.
Stay focused.
