Keep up with the positivity Stephen. Keep posting too whenever you feel lonely or have the urge to gamble. It has helped me. Let’s first get ourselves into the right state of mind. Have you had regular meals by the way?

i will fight these demons head on. I’m thinking of re-connecting with old mates this weekend. They deserve to know why I’ve “disappeared” for more than a year. They were good friends who’ve helped me financially in the past.  I know they’d probably loathe me by now since it has happened before in the past and I still owe most of them money. For now it temains as a plan. I must execute it. Lord give me strength. I feel so lonely.

Stephen, I hope what I’m about to say will offer you some comfort. You’re not alone. The pain that both you and I are experiencing now is the first step to recovery. Stay focussed on your goal. That goal is to never gamble again. Let’s do it one day at a time. Thanks for your post. It made me realise a ton of things. Stay positive. Know that you’ve made a difference in someone’s life (mine and many others here) by sharing your story, even when you’re at your lowest. Like I said in my thread, I will keep you in my prayers.

Thank you Stephen. I admire your strength and positivity. I rolled on my bed for many hours today and can’t seem to shut my mind. I feel sick. It’s very sad to see a common theme is so many of us. Yet we continue burying ourselves slowly over the years. I wish you speedy recovery and will keep you in my prayers. You’re not alone too and yes, we have to start somewhere. For me, it’s today.
