    I was looking this up recently, and compulsion is only 9% of the problem. So, I feel better, what else do I act like, or do? I drink too much coffee, sulk, I’m unresponsible, I have slot of faults, good I read your piece. Yeah, isn’t it funny to blame something, I’ve felt that way. Don’t sulk, enjoy your evening, your free , one day at a time:-$

    I am compulsive, my bf and me, we have been surrendering, it’s hard, the emotions we built up from the losses, and wins. Either way it’s comforting to have people, sharing the same thing. I’m texting and learning to admit my addiction

    I spent more time disappointing people by spending endless minutes at the casino, when it reopens, I may go play my Freeplay, no maybe 15 for food and drink, that’s it, leave my atm card at home, I can do that, I’m going to stop, and get a new job if I have to, another problem have a nice night

    Today, I relapsed, I spent 40′ on line gaming, it’s not a winning site, just game. I started playing the Freeplay yesterday. If I have difficulty I’ll call myself out and I make mistakes,

    I find therapy useful! I find anything not tearing me up, useful. That time, spent, at Trget, Walmart, or a new makeup collection is money well spent, but healing begins in therapy.

    Currently I’d like to talk about this. There’s slot said in the time I could knit a scarf, I don’t know how to knit a sweater, but finding meaning in the words, I can’t and turning to I can, creativity is better off admired and worth it, I even can show off my effort! Admitting, what you cannot do, is being honest and it takes courage to stand up for yourself, and not agree to being right all the time. I’m working on a 100x 88/4 x 4, so it is a king size blanket. A bit compulsive, aren’t I?

    My life has gotten worse now that I gambled gamble, but I realize that probably the people who I interacted with financially before I gambled, made me feel crazy. I think too much, but having said that, it’s all about lies, and chance. Sometimes, life has a spin, and chose life, over spins. Today, is a new day. Tomorrow, is far away.

    I’m going to read books, knit, and seIf change a little, maybe the world will change, or mine. It’s been three days, since I access my app., It doesn’t matter, which ones. Yesterday I had a long panic attack, I was outside, nothing unusual. Any activity, is tiresome, addiction is hard, especially if you have no means to survive, compete opposite of self-care. Happy Sunday morning, stay well.

    I was on the computer and I get obsessed, so new, it’s a beginning. Everyday is a beginning, today is different, no apps, no games, and no spinning. I wish I had more to say, thanks.
