4-6-12  Hello I am Sami.  I am a compuslive gambler and I know I need to stop —  my life is unmanageable and i just cant go on like this. I have spent my money as well as my daughters money.  I am so blessed to have her- but yet i keep doing the same thing!  Today i gambled– so today I made up my mind to do something different. Today I will begin writing in the journal———- I hope this will motivate me and encourage me to continue staying bet free-one day at a time!  This is the last month I want to worry how I will manage the rest of the month — I usually dont need much – but my daughter deserves a lot more than what I have been doing.  I have spent time trying to figure out what triggers me — but honestly – it is just the desire to gamble. Such a sick mind I have!   One day at a time!!!  Trust in the Lord.
