Trying to get sober off gambling. Relapsed today again. Texted my sponsor for the billionth time Ughhhhh
So, gambling is your “drug” of choice, Ash?
No issues with substance?
I highly encourage you to find something that gives you gratification and the endorphin boost. Woodworking, fishing, gardening, art, hiking, working out are a few ideas. You need to replace that habit or it's too easy to run to. Find something to do and turn to that every time you have that urge. Feel free to message me if you ever need encouragement! You can never have too many people in your corner, they just need to be the ones that keep you on track. And if you're falling into this with someone, then it might be time to start distancing yourself from those people.
I’m sorry. Gambling can pull you right back in fast, especially when your head starts telling you you already messed up anyway. Telling somebody what happened, you did. Now get back up, get around your support, stay here with us and start fresh today. You got this and we’re here for you
