Gambling destroying me!
I realize I have come to the end of dealing with this and I feel so helpless on how to get out of it. I make good money, I spend money to try to make money to get out of the debt I have caused. It is a vicious cycle. I enjoy sitting at a video poker machine, but it is destroying my life. I met a man 3 years ago while watching football at a Sports Bar, everything seemed wonderful. He didn't drink the first two years, come to find out now he was recovering. He gambles all the time to make that extra dollar. His income is nothing like mine but that never bothered me but now I see him drinking sporadically and he is a totally different person who is very mentally abusive and horrible. He is a danger to himself.I cannot be around him when he is like that. It seems in that state of mind I am his worst enemy and then he is always regretful.
I feel like I am self distructing by the error/mistakes I have made the past year. I feel if I had that one last chance to make it good financially I would be ok and do the right thing but that one chance does not come and I get deeper and deeper in debt. I know with my income that within 90 days I can get myself out of this but of course it cannot come soon enough. He and I talk about how we want to fix this but it seems to be myself always bringing it up. We always spend time together and it is at a casino when we enjoy so many other things,I have to get off this cycle. I am making myself physically sick worrying. I am distracted from work and I love my job, I am so blessed and now I feel I am putting it in jepordy by my choices.
I pray to God to help me be strong to guide me on the right path, to give us the strength to fix this together but I feel I need to "Let Go and Let God" and watch out for myself and don't destroy myself anymore than I already have. I just need relief, I need to stop worrying and fix all my wrong.
