After 27 G-Free months , I turned thought into action. Three months ago , I decided to gamble. Nobody forced me. I gambled wildly for over 3 months. Nothing has changed in Gambling World! How did it happen? I had saved £**** (a very healthy 4 figure sum) Started to “dip in”. Lost everything. Borrowed £ * * * * to half cover my tracks. Lost that too. Moral of the story? CGs are not normal when it comes to handling money. It’s exactly like carrying a loaded shot gun in your hip pocket. Just for today, I will pretend it was all a bad dream. Denial is a useful Mental Defence Mechanism.
