thanks to those who wrote replies, helps to know i am not talking to my self here, lol. the 3 day week end is almost over have not done much spent a lot of time on the computer (here and other websites that i enjoy) and spent a lot of time sleeping (not a big sleeper so thats probly a sign of depression, not sure) the most positive to come out of the week end is i did not gamble today is day 6. the thousands i spent before my bankruptcy are gone i have come to terms with that. Its the 1500 or so that i have blown sinse my bankruptcy that really bugs me, i have a hard time accepting the fact that i blew my chance to start over and am still struggling with money problems 2 months after bankruptcy. The creditors have until Aug 11 to file objections to my debt being discharged, one has already done so. They want 50 a month for 23 months, so if the others just leave me alone i'll be ok. Considering my balance was over 4000 with that one bank 50 for 23 months is not too bad, its just that i am still paying off the lawyer and friends. if i would have stopped gambling when i filed i would be in pretty decent shape right now, not wealthy by a long shot, i wouldnt be that even if i had never gambled, but wouldnt owe my lawyer and friends money, just gotta get thru the next couple months, this month is bad because car insurance is due, but next month have less bills and there are 5 pay days in august, hope that helps and not gambling should help too, i see the light at the end of the tunnle hope all here on the sight can do the same.
Great going on day 6. Thing will get better in time. I know it is hard to let go of the losses but we have to or it just greats more losses and depression. Keep up the good work. Melissa

Great job Kenny for making it through the weekend without gambling! Congrats on day 6. The longer you stay gamble free, the clearer your thoughts will become. Just remember to take it one day, one hour, one moment at a time...whatever it takes!
Hugs

WTG on 6 days! I'm proud of you. It's been a year since I was discharged from bankruptcy and I'm still having money troubles, but I also slipped many times in this year. You can and will get yourself dug out of the mess as long as you stay strong and take it one day at a time. Peace and Love. Patty
