Thank you for the support. Just knowing I’m not alone is a big help.
Posting is helping me, as its getting my thoughts out without having to tell anyone
I know what you mean with being addicted to the shame and guilt. Its like I know if I put a little more in I’d feel bad. But it feels good at the same time.
The treats have been helping, got an awards night on Sunday with work. So if I don’t gamble by then, I’m going to have a good night and let my hair down a bit. And then I’ve seen a handbag I like, so if I get to payday, that’s my treat. I think having treats help because it gives me a goal and something to look forward to. And I don’t feel bad about spending a little on me as I’d usually be gambling it away anyway. Chocolate is a great treat, not expensive and taste great =]
