Hi Monica ,
You posed a lot of really good questions on my thread-
I wonder if there is actually a change in the brain chemistry of women when we reach a certain age which makes us want to gamble – wouldn’t that be a great piece of research .
In my thirties I was too busy living
In my forties life just got sad and stressful .
I wonder does extreme trauma cause a change in brain chemistry – if it does – is there a drug to change it back ?
So many questions- not nearly enough research .
Why does gambling even a little make us feel so low ?
Even a win feels shameful .
What is the shift that has happened ?
And why middle aged women so often ?
My brain is frazzled !
