Hello friends,
I celebrated 5 years today. Not sure of the exact date but I know it was January 1x, 2009.
I chose today because it was my local NA meeting tonight and I picked up a medal there. I was not the only 5 year birthdays there, imagine that!
Thanks to everyone here at Olgan-anon. My sponsor(s), the 12 Step Programme, my sponsees, and of course my Higher Power whom today I know to be Jesus Christ my Saviour.
Blessings

It's good to have goals and dreams, but while you're waiting for things to change, waiting for promises to come to pass, don't be discontent with where you are. Learn to enjoy the season that you're in--Pastor Joel Osteen

I am a recovering computer game and gambling addict. My recovery birthday: On May 6, 2012 I quit games and began working a program of recovery through OLGA No computer games or slot games for me since December 12, 2012. No solitaire games with real cards since June 2013.
Wonderful!!! thank you Pete for all your service and help. You were here when I got here, when I didn't know what gaming addiction was. Thank you!!!
Big hugs!!
You are an inspiration to all of us here, Pete! Thank you for your unconditional dedication to this fellowship! You truly are a respected "old timer"! Sincerely, Liz

Loving life and living it!
Congratulations and a huge thank you, Pete. So glad you're here sharing real life and helping others do the same.
Acceptance. When I am disturbed, it is because a person, place, thing, or situation is unacceptable to me. I find no serenity until I accept my life as being exactly the way it is meant to be. Nothing happens in God’s world by mistake. Acknowledge the problem, but live the solution!
Huge congratulations!!! Thank you for all your service.
Congratulations Tommi, your success story gives everyone here ,including us parents, hope for game free future.
