Good morning Tina,
We can surely make a mess out of our finances and life when gambling! Find comfort in the small things like the sunshine, your cat, and the knowledge that you can turn things around.
I see on Monica’s thread that you downloaded the book that was being advertised on a link I shared with Monica. I hope you read my disclaimer! lol I have no knowledge of that author, or her book, but I connected with what she said about grief in the intro. And how we do other things to avoid feeling grief – like drink, do drugs, and here I would insert and gamble! Let me know if the book turned out to be any good or is just a money grab!
Morning here for me in North America. Have yourself a good night!
Laura
