I have a gambling problem when i take Ropinirole. But it works so good i think it is worth the risk. I took 2 6 mg today vs 1. I have felt better today than i have in the last month. If i waste $10,000 a year it is worth it to be without pain. If a person smokes 2 packs a day that is about $5,000 a year throw in heath cost of smoking and it is way more than $10,000 a year but you don't see people going nuts about someone smoking. I can not spend any money i have no way of getting any.

Good choice if you ask me. We have only one life.
For the gambling part, "Forewarned is forearmed", I guess.
I understand this, Bailey. I tried to quit taking clonazepam at bedtime and Xanax when I wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning and can't get back to sleep. They're benzodiazepines and not especially great for my cognitive function even though I take very low doses, but I felt so crappy and realized how important the sleep was, and yes, only one life and it's short and getting shorter by the day.
As a securities trader, I am essentially a professional gambler. I know very well that dopamine hit that comes from making a fast buck. I can also tell you it takes hard work and discipline to actually make money at it. To draw the analogy with construction, you would not dare design a roof without considering rafter tables and loading.
That said, if you want to consider it as entertainment expense and allocate a certain amount of funds to that, that is okay too.
Hi Baley,
You could even take a little ropinol and do not gambling.
Who says that the medicines tell us to do of our lives? Maybe it's not, but if you agree with them, it will be so for sure.
With friendship.

Be careful Bailey. Your mind can outsmart you sometimes but I know you're strong! 🙏
There are other compulsive behaviors that are free. Would you be ok with these?
