    The day just started for me but I’m confidently saying day 2. I simply have no more money that I can physically spend at the casino. One thing I have noticed that helps me out unfortunately is hitting rock bottom. Like a lot of us here sometimes we just need to hit rock bottom to feel a place I would not wish upon anyone even my worst enemy. The guilt, shame and embarrassment is killing me inside. But I know that all this shall pass. Sunny days wouldn’t be special if it wasn’t for rain. So for those reading this, stay strong. There is hope.

    Murr how are you holding up? I read your whole story last night and could relate to a lot of it. You’ll be in my thoughts and prayers

    Completely agree with you on this. I simply cannot gamble. Can’t handle the winning because it’s never enough. And when the chase comes in it is literally to the last penny. thankful for good friends However And support. Just had to borrow 2k from a good friend of mine just to be able to pay for bills. I’m just so thankful I didn’t max any cards out and go  into heavy debt.

    You know id like to consider myself more as a   Spiritual person, so when I fall down like this, sometimes I just need encouraging words, strength and a lot of prayer. I’m on day two today  and the only thing that is helping me find peace over my losses is praying for it. I’m still struggling in dealing with constant thought of gambling and dreams throughout the night of it
