hi.
if many people's deffinition of insanity is repeating an action over and over despite knowing the negative consequences i guess then that qualifies for me as being insane.
but i'm not just insane. i'm totally gone!
i know that gambling brings negative things into my life. but i seem to forget that i shouldn't gamble.
so here i am about to have a lonely weekend stuck at home with 7 cigarettes and no food.
and the perspective of next week doesn't look much better either as the bank are forcing me into bankruptcy for just €70 debts

Hi, aldo,
And welcome to the MH forum of SR!

I'm sorry to hear about your problem.
Have you spoken to a counselor about your gambling at all? It seems like there *may* be some obsession going on. Of course, I'm not a doctor, so, don't take my word for anything. But, I think it would be worth your while to check into why you've allowed gambling to take control over your life, yes?

I wish you the best. Hope to get to know you better as we both work on our recovery.

Shalom!
