I am new to this and I am at the point that I dont think nothing could really hurt.. I have just relized that I have a gambling addiction. I moved to my current city about 4 months ago and started hanging out with my aunt who also has a addiction to gambling as well as alcohol. I have been quite lonely here and at first going to the casino was just away of me getting out of the house now its just out of control.I have wasted away at least 1000 dollars, money I deffinitly dont have. I just got done with college, have no decent job yet and have a little girl. I do have some income but it is very limited. I have barely been able to afford bills, and at first I would win quite a bit but now am losing, lieing and borrowing money just to go their. All of this is so not me because I have always been careful with money, been a big saver and now I am just so depressed that I just cant seem to stop going in there. I am also so moody and just mad all the time. I just dont know how to stop and I fully believe in God but I dont know how to start to get help, start to pray, and look into him for help... I just no my depression is getting worse and need some kind of help so i can start to be myself again and be a good mom to my little girl.
