Happy to say after being completely depressed the whole summer, I feel better!

OMG to have the ability to feel my arms and legs to do stuff.

I dont think Im getting manic right now as still feel like ****, but I just feel better and I think its because Im starting to take my addiction to gambling a lot more serious.

Im so sick of the consequences of gambling and even though its only been 5 days since clean, Im sticking to my guns to not relapse. I found someone I trust to help with my money and after sending this week's work earnings away to break the cycle, I feel sooooo good and ready to work again and earn to start paying my debt down and stop the madness!

Thanks! I need that rooting big time .

Got to seven days not-depressed, which is also 7 days sober from gambling and eating horrible food.

I cant believe how much extra money I have to pay bills, debt, stock with good food and not stress about how 5 pennies in my bank account.

The urge is there to gamble n eat like crap, but Im keeping myself busy and also started to use an anti-addiction app that is really helping out. Also going to the GA meeting helped as good to talk with people again.

Im not out of any woods and have so much work to do on myself, but is unreal to be functioning again after being a complete vegetable for 4.5 months.
