I am the wife of a gambler. How can you describe yourself when it will reveal that secret. I sit here often with no one to talk to about my anxiety that comes from being the one in charge and responsible for scrapping it together to make the bills and give the illusion of that everything is all right.

$20,800 - imagine what that could buy! imagine being out of debt, I can't because my hard earned money is going to the pockets of those who own those poker machines. What do you say when your husband comes home excited he won $200.00 when you know that is a drop in the bucket of what has and will be gambled away. And then to find out two days later the money he said he would deposit is not and another $80.00 is gone. I sit here feeling alone as I can't tell anyone...... Can't talk to him because it makes him gamble more, can't not say anything because it makes him think it is okay all the while my anxiety level is nearly at a heart attack level. I start this blog as means to get it out of me and maybe come to, I don't know come to what. What do I want?
