I have reached the point in my pokie playing where I need to stop!! Hopefully expressing this here will be a start on the no pokie playing track for me. My last visit to the pokies I lost quite a bit of money which my husband does not know about. I am so over throwing my money away but it is definitely addictive, which I was so smug about, saying no that won't happen to me but I realise now how easy it is to be hooked. My starting goal now is to focus on staying away from the casino.
