Hi. I know its late but i wanted to reply to your post. With all my heart thanks for attempting to post me 3 times. This time last year i ended up in Cuan Mhuaire treatment centre in Athy. My mother and father was so proud of me for going into a treatment centre.At this stage my family.partner or people who supported me in work couldnt do anymore. I was in a very bad way. My mother had throat cancer at the time but she came to see me.
The treatment she had to go through was horrific. She still had time for me and so did my family. They came all the way from bettystown to Athy to see me even when my mother was very sick. When i came out of Cuan Mhuaire I stopped gambling for a few weeks but ended up back gambling. My family where trying to support my mother and i had the ddiction. The addiction of gambling. My addiction took my time with my mother away from me. Its taken time away from going down to see my family. Its taken time away from my son. It has taken time way from my partner. When you say the time is Now…Yoy are 100 per cent right. Time is everything when you love someone so much but addiction took that away from me.
You told me i can beat gambling……Your right. I cant make excuses about my mother passing away etc. I’m NOT trying to make excuses. I finally understand the amount of time a gambler spends gambling.I have gambled since i was 16 years old. Can i go into a treatment centre again…Not at the moment. I wouldnt be able. I do need help. When i went for a walk today I ended up in mountmellick church. I asked god to let me back in his heart.
My brother phoned me on the way into the church. I told him Im in a bad place because of gambling and ill phone him later because im just on my way into the church. I didnt phone him back. Ill phone him tomm and have long chat.
