Just curious to read some addict or former addict stories and probably some of us like me will be glad to see how things actually did roll in for them during this period and I believe some other persons tending towards that path can also learn from it. Also, if you have a friend or relative you can speak for, it would be appreciated.
Personally, this is what I would like to know though.
1. How did you find yourself ending up to become an addict? What instigated it to the point that you just found yourself not being able to control the impulse any longer? What was the feeling like and during those period of being an addict, did you know and were you willing to pop out of it?
2. What were the steps you took or the steps you are taking to get out from it, and on the scale of 1 to 10, how can you rate how you are doing now?
3. For those who are out of it, do you still gamble or still wish you could? In the case where you are still gambling, how do you want to make sure what happened initially does not end up repeating itself.
4. Any other thing you feel you can add is welcome.
I remember one time while waiting for the noche buena to come, I invite my cousins to play a card game and the whole night what we did is to just play any card games and we are unstoppable.
1) i know I am already addicted when I can't help myself to stop playing and betting online and or even in offline.
2) in the scale of 1 to 10, I am happy to tell everybody that I am in the stage of 10 that means I successfully eliminate my gambling addiction.
3) yes I still want to gamble but this time I have to know my limits so that I will not end up addicted again.
