13 years of this ends now
I'm currently on day 5.
Been gambling for the last 13 years now and I'm tired of it. I'm tired of the constant stress, the secrecy and of course the debt.
I fell into gambling addiction 13 years ago. During that time I did have about 2-3 years off gambling and I want to get back to that life. That life was great, no money worries, no debt.
I'm trying to find my triggers. I think there's a few such as boredom, an escape from day to day life, and a self perpetuating money worries triggers gambling which causes more money problems, etc.
It'll take me maybe 18 months to get back to some level of normal money wise.
I don't know why I'm writing here specifically, maybe more of a journal for myself I can look back on and remind myself why I'm not gambling anymore, keep myself accountable.
