If you are in some form of recovery and actively working on your gambling issue you have done all the hard work already. You will be able to pay this off. Keep working and brainstorm how to make more money every day.

Right now you have motivation that most people don't. Motivation to make more money! Read books, ask wise people for advice and keep your nose clean and you will come out of this a better (and richer) person than before.

Do your best. Don't quit Mikey!
