Hello, I’ve tried to do an introduction, at least, but I’m not quite sure how to. I ve worked very hard, most my life, and to compile my introduction at first, was hard. I don’t think gambling was allowed in either of my sur families, and that is my first admittance. Hence, to know of this, may have different responses. Personally, I was a responsible person. Many things contributed to my gambling in the casino. Many things led me there, kept me there, and still provoke my harmful addiction, of desire to stay in my addiction. I found that my immediate family offers no support. I have been supported by a partner, and children. I do not want to compare my problems or other addictions, and however, I did have one family member seriously addicted to gambling. That person, is in hospice right now, and this is has and will be a hard time for me and my spouse and children. I am here and now.

Welcome to the forum Dolly. Keeping a journal and reading other people’s stories have helped me tremendously. I hope it is a helpful tool for you too. Looking forward to reading your success story

Well! I’m learning to control things. It’s not easy. I’m releasing stress, and realizing that personal addiction is a part of my life. I went out in the car and felt free yesterday. In short ten years ago I started, a vacation with emergency surgery. Today I’m not that person. I can be free to walk and not fear pain! I went to Walmart, the tobacco store, and a dollar tree. Then I let go . We came home. Even being 10 more miles to our h*place, we turned back home. It was nice. But I was happy .to know I did not go and enjoyed yams and cheeseburgers. I feel anew and actually cleaned etc. Gambling seems like an addiction to others some hide it well. Overall, I’m taking a second look, and don’t feel like telling much more.

Well, I’m enjoying my niche with pipe tobacco. The surgeries brought on a pain n my breathing mechanism and the spasms is what led to start smoking. Life changes life? I’m focusing on my addiction but truly I can’t write today, I’m disappointed in my behaviors,and other, and those that are just like me! My triggers today would be addiction…..addictions because of others who inflicted harm on me and others who took my daily routines away from me. I’m thankful for my morning breath, and my paycheck. Good luck to fellow gamblers!
