Day 1399 since rock bottom
Day 62 since last relapse
I had a relapse about six months ago and it lasted for about 3 months. I let go of my guard and let the triggers take control of me. I failed to honor my own rule of keeping my money away from my reach. That’s the deadly trigger. I lost a bit of my money and I was really sad for a bit. I am thankful for my family as they were able to figure it out based on my body language and immediately stepped in to restrict my access to my money.
With this disease/condition/addiction you can never be too careful. Please keep your money locked away far away from your reach and you will live a long happy life devoid of this terrible curse.
On the good news side of things, I have now paid off my house. Having lost my previous house to gambling, and then building my life back up, buying a new house and paying it off has been due to God’s grace and opportunity he has given me to save my life. I will be eternally grateful.
Living gamble free, one day at a time.
