When I started gambling I was very cheap. I didn’t like to lose ten dollars! But I liked taking money out. That did not last long however! Within months I was spending $100s a week. I stopped gambling for approximately six months due to hospitalization for major surgery and not being able to get out. Online gambling is illegal here so I don’t trust them! Once I was able to get out and gamble again I became a menace making up for lost time! It escalated so fast that I could lose thousands and not blink until it was all gone. Then I’d obsess about my losses and how I could gamble again. Until I had nothing left financially. Even if I “won” I’d lose it all again. Glad to have you back! It means you are not in action. I hope you can protect what you have left. Use whatever means of help you can get. One day at a time. No gambling today for me. Laura
