I feel emotionally exhausted from gambling, so I’m in therapy. Learning, reading, and even conversations are hard to stay on topic. It’s been a week since, and I’m anxious anyway, so I’ll be short on the topic today. I been looking down, at my stuff, finding withdraw statements, messes, and frustrations to deal with. Without therapy I otherwise get into the dual anxiety of my compulsions, I cannot stay focused on my feelings, which are now emotions. I hope I never gamble again.
I’m also aware this is a public site, and I’m not open enough in real time, about my problem, so I’ll keep it short. I’m learning how not to gamble, and doing just that.

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,

Hi there, I know for myself I cannot play ANY type of slot games even if they are free. It triggers me to want to play for real money. Just a thought, maybe try to steer clear of any type of online games for a while? Any kind of game that gives you a thrill can trigger you and lead back to gambling for real.
Just my 2 cents.
Take care.

I was nice, I wish I could so, I’m trying for myself, and my sanity, and much more. I can’t imagine, what people have gone through for centuries, now I know. It’s crazy, but win or lose, it’s a loss.
