Hi shutter bug,
Recognizing....is good start. It was good for me.
The whole world can know...if i didn't know, it wouldn't mean
a jell of beans to me.
That crazy obessive, complusive stuff happening in me.
lol..I tried to stop gambling so I join and R/C flight club for an alternative,
the next thing i know, i have a fleet of air plane in my workshop
I spent $3000 on a R/C car
always up grading it...
So i started writing music to make a change...next thing i know, i'm up till
4-a.m. writing songs everynight.
So i started reading books...next thing I know..I'm buying all kinds of books
and reading it till the 4 a.m.
balance....yikes !!!
I just work my 12 steps...to the best of my ablilty.
it didn't happen over night.
I cruve my gambling. habits ...i got a software for my pc. So i wouldn't
go to the casino and blow all my money. yes..subsitutions
i out grew it the PC game or it became boring and a waste of time to me.
my compusive and obession hasn't been tottally releaved, but it's
getting better.
