Your time and your money will never be your own for as long as you choose to gamble.
There is no such thing as “controlled gambling” for a compulsive gambler. Once we cross that line, it’s all or nothing from now on. That’s the difference between “gambling” and “compulsive gambling” Once we start we cannot stop.
The only way to beat the problem is not to start…..
Well done on seeking help.
