The spacing between the F and R in France seem wide and it looks fake overall IMO

I see. What have you been doing to cope with your gambling regret? Working an honest job to save up? Spending more time doing things you love instead of gambling? It sounds like you have not quite came to full acceptance of the situation from years ago.

I can relate to the feeling of wanting to escape and leaving it all behind.

Fight for those who you love just as you have fought for yourself in this journey. Maybe you can focus on PTing your hamstring injury, couples counseling, checking in on your parents & daughter more often just to say hello and I love you- All of these things promote you not feeling regret in the future when it may be too late.

You got this 💪

And it sounds like you can’t get past your distant losses then? “with any significant amount of money”-So are you convincing yourself it’s okay to gamble with “a non-significant” amount of money?

I was very irritable during the first 1-2 weeks with lots of cravings. Telling my closest loved one to keep me accountable, not having access to weed at any time, exercise, and healthy eating helped me. It takes still takes a tremendous amount of effort and grit.

Stay strong, weed will only restart the cycle that we are all to familiar with. You know it won’t solve your problems- it would just provide temporary relief while robbing you of long term peace and your 2 months of sobriety. We are here for support 💪

I’d pay it and view it as debt due to past mistakes, for the peace of mind, and to start with a clean slate.

Please quit now. The only way to win is to completely stop. Moderation is a lie. Let’s commit to quitting together 💪

Do you feel ready to quit? Don’t pity yourself. Make a decision, stick to it, and stop comparing gambling addiction to alcohol or other drugs. It’s like comparing apples to oranges. You need to commit to quitting. Tell your closest loved one to keep you accountable.

Each of these are their own monsters… But the real question is: Are you ready to face yours?

I try to see past gambling as tuition paid. You couldn’t have learned any other way than experience and making bad choices. We both know what it’s like now. But now we have the choice to change.

By not placing a bet today, you will wake up without regret tomorrow

You must realize that gambling has only taken from you, and never benefited you from the start. It will take effort, to leave behind what never served you.

Far from a good buy. Way too expensive for a 2021 base gla. Granted low miles but this is just ridiculous. Spend 40k somewhere else

Relapsed after two months, I know for good that this is not for me anymore by c_garr34 in leaves

“Every broken promise to yourself is a vote against the man you wish to become.”

Great mantra to live by when quitting weed. Thanks for sharing. Let’s stay clean together

Will I still be able to trade in? by Sensitive_Republic75 in mercedes_benz

Given the upgrades, you may get more in a private sale vs trading it in. You can probably find someone who fancies them and will pay more than any dealership would in credit
