Back to reality. Fighting urges to gamble. Scenario in my head- I keep telling myself but I really LOVE to gamble. Maybe I can play some controlled blackjack. I can win some money then place a parley on a sports bet. I will start small then I won’t lose too much money. This is not a wise decision. We all know small bets will turn into larger bets. I go through the roller coaster of emotions.. wait 10 minutes and do something else the urge will go away. Gambling is not that bad, I can really win if I make the right bets and quit. I have some money in my bank account maybe gamble $100 just to see what will happen. What?? This is crazy talk. I have NO SELF CONTROL!! What am I thinking? This will not work if I go back. I will NOT WIN because I’m a compulsive gambler. I will gamble until my money is gone. Been fighting these urges all day in my head.
I will make the right decision and not gamble today. I can do this!!
