No one really understands until they experience it. I never understood addiction until I became a gambler and could not stop. I ran through $40K. Went to Gamblers Anon. even, the 10-step program. Only God could cure me. Bull! What it was, was an underlying medical condition called bipolar disorder. When I got diagnosed and medicated, the urge went away. But now I feel for anyone who has an addiction and pray that a medical solution can be found to help them too.View Thread
