Recovery Saying of the Day...

"Remember that compulsive gambling is incurable, progressive, and fatal."

I must never think that I can stop doing what I do each day to keep from placing that first bet. There is no real "cure" for my addiction. I can arrest the symptoms by remembering my powerlessness over gambling and taking the actions each day to keep from becoming active. If I do not remember this it will not be long before I am back to the same life I had before. Since I know the addiction is progressive, my life will likely even get worse, if that is poassible, eventually leading to my death.
