One day at a time

Hey all, just trying this app out. I've been heavily addicted to gambling for the last 3 years now, its really been a struggle. I do great for a few months, but have been relapsing when I get financially comfortable. Still haven't quite found the right balance of therapy, meds and lifestyle yet. But exercise and drumming has helped, journalling and owning my emotions rather than letting them control me.

All the best to you on your journey. Sober 3 days, lets make it 4.

That’s how you show up. No tapping out happening here. You’re owning it and doing the work. 3

Welcome! It’s hard to balance things out in the beginning but it will get easier! You have the right mindset of taking things one day at a time. It’s also great that you journal! On days you feel weak go back and read some entries from when you were feeling your best and your worst. Helps to have that reminder of why you are doing this!

Gambling was my downfall! I had to ban myself from the websites and physical casinos. Sending positive energy your way! You can do it!
