Disciple of Prayer
I have been struggling with a gambling addiction for two years. I started therapy a few months ago to try to deal with my past trauma and causes for my compulsive gambling. I'm in over ###k debt behind my gambling. I pray every day asking God to help me overcome my addiction and to help me with my financial burden that I created. I never intended for my life to be like this. I couldn't control it. I am working a full time and part time job and looking to replace the part time job with a full time job to pay off my debt. I'm ###yrs old, I don't have the strength most days to work all these hours but I have to. I want this nightmare to be over with. I hate myself for what I did. There's days I want to give up but I think about my children and how unfair it would be for them to give up. ### is when things went downhill for me. Will God help me overcome this addiction and help with this financial burden? I cannot file bankruptcy nor do I want to because I understand I made the choice to gamble, but God knows I didn't make the choice to be addicted. I want my debt to be paid off so I can put all this behind me. I am so sad tonight because I try and try and continue to mess up. Please say a prayer for me. I don't know what else to do.
