Hi Steev. My first slip was on Sunday. I had worked an extra shift and was tired and lonely. My sister had contacted me that day while I was at work in regard to my parents and how they weren’t getting along. I don’t think I was thinking of that though. I was tired and didn’t really want to go straight home. I felt like ‘relaxing’ and I would be able to control myself…you know, just stay a short time & leave…and there was a thought in the back of my head that I might win some extra money to make up for some of my previous losses. I had actually walked out of a casino with $500 winnings on my last venture of 2018. Sunday night was the usual night of remorse and Monday was the ‘day after’ a not so funday Sunday. I was tired and depressed for slipping on Sunday. On days like that it’s best for me not to leave my house unless I’m going to work. I went to a gas station to get some beer…that was my excuse…& of course they had a casino. The rest is history. I work tonite and am leaving my cards at home in in the case I get some crazy thoughts when I get off tomorrow morning. Going to start leaving my house with only enough cash to stop and pick up things I may be needing.
