Hey ax,
Well done on your gamble free time.
The money situation will settle, it took us a long time to get here and it takes a while to sort that out! But you will!
You have youth on your side. I started gambling in my mid 20’s. By the time I finally did something about my addiction i had lost our home and had a huge tax bill, it was a nightmare of my own doing. I can’t say that we ever bought another house, and the way the market is where I live we never will, it is truly one of my biggest financial regrets. I can’t change that. I don’t dwell on it either, I have a pretty good life but it took me years to dig us out of the hole. I had good support here and with my family and friends. I didn’t put myself into any gambling situation. I gave all our financial control to my husband and it’s worked for me.
I hope you’re enjoying that sunshine, isn’t it lovely when your mind isn’t full of ways, means and opportunities to gamble, that is living!!! Sometimes it is the smallest thing that gives us the most joy!
Love K x
