You are right, you can’t do that to your family and grandkids. But you know that. I am so sorry you gambled but relief that over the course of 11 hours it was just 300 dollars. It could have been so much more. What were the triggers? Was it the financial situation and your daughter requiring some financial help? That has been a trigger for me in the past when the family have needed money. God knows why but being aware of it helps, I,don’t,feel like gambling when that happens now although the feeling of not enough is the trigger. And wanting to help and sort,out the kids financially,for life. It sounds like a typical addicted gambler, playing to play as long as possible, not to win. Did you have anyone from GA you could have contacted when you got the urge? Go along to your GA meeting and tell them what happened. Ask if anyone can provide support the next time this happens.
I hope the air con gets sorted out now.
Pick yourself up and get back to normal activities ASAP. It was a glitch and then move but look at your triggers Liz and what you can do when they arise.
