It’s your life, Maverick.
As you say , you know what you have to do .
Alas, SOMETHING is still preventing you from doing it .
Until you root out that “something”, the best you can do , is learn to roll with the punches. When the hangover/pain becomes greater than the thrill, then everything will fall into place.
We need to put as much work into recovery as we did into gambling.
Put on a new mindset.
Thanks for posting on my Thread.
2010 was also a G free year for me.
Early in January 2011 I walked through a casino, got the whiff of the machines’ Stuck a few crisp notes in the slot machine and I was off. Got lucky. Shared some with the few desperados who looked on open mouthed.
A few hours later I walked out of that hellhole almost broke.
What is the EARTHLY point in torturing ourselves over and over, I ask? and to be honest, Mav I could repeat that madness next week in the blink of an eye.
Don’t put me on a pedestal . I’m not an inspiration. I’m really not. I’m just a burned out fake CG who gets it right occasionally.
I am TOTALLY powerless over gambling.
My only hope is never to put myself in the firing line again.
You’re a young man, Mav with so much to give and so much to live for. I don’t believe I have another recovery in me, but you have!
I hope and pray you will get through 2017 G free.
I believe you can do it. One day at a time. Never give up!
Keep praying!
God is good! Don’t try to outwit this addiction. As CGs , we haven’t a hope in hell.
CGs NEVER win.
