I am reading these posts and they scare me. i understand this is for friends and family to vent. however i am not seeing any positive results. i am a CG and i am working on changing.. i dont insult my husband or blame him for my gambling. yes i have lied about finances. i have had relapse and i continue fighting. do any relationships actually survive?. i know we cant ask our loved ones to stand by and suffer with us. none of you deserve what is happening in your lives. i am just hoping maybe there are some goods things that come out of this forum and families do stay together?
Hi Pam, I am a compulsive gambler. My family have forgiven me now, they are proud of me for tackling a tough addiction. I have a friend – his wife packed her bags about 8 years ago when she found out – they have a 6 year old now. All we can do is focus on our own actions – the actions that will help us stop gambling are the same actions that can help rebuild trust etc Not what we say or promise, what we DO
. My friends wife? She says she would trust him with her life….. just not with her money 🙂
