Recovery Saying of the Day...

"Gamblers Anonymous IS the easier, softer way."

For so many, when they first come to a Gamblers Anonymous meeting, the hardest thing is first admitting they are in fact a compulsive gamblers. Then, after they do make this admission, the next hardest thing is accepting the fact that repairing the damage caused will not fix overnight. They must continue to learn by attending meetings, applying the tools offered, and working the steps of the program. Many choose to try "one more time" to go back to the bet, hoping they will be able to win enough money to ease some of the pain, and then promise themselves they will never get into the situation again. Unfortunately for most, this never happens. Once we as compulsive gamblers cross that invisible line, we can never go back. There is not enough money.
