Ive got to stop..
But so much of gambling is in my social life.
Im not sure if im gunna have to kick out poker nights and playing cards as well. Never really thought of that as gambling. Pretty small stakes for my taste compared to the out of control sports betting I do..
But shit... Maybe the poker and everything will have to be eleminated.. I really dont want to quit guys poker night, but will have to if it tends to lead me to the desire or urge of the problamatic gambling.
I really dont know.. I just dont know..

yeah, i was always into the high limits black jack. could easily make or lose 10K in a night, and this was when i didn't have the kind of money i have now. i knew i needed to stop, and finally i just did.
like i said, if you can stay away a year, you've probably licked it (at least that was the case for me). i gambled starting when i was around 17 and continued until i was 26. gambling addiction is every bit as powerful as any sort of drug addiction. those who disagree simply don't understand it.
good luck man. you should bookmark this thread prominently on your desktop.
