Which one of the following was NOT among the conditions of the man several years

W: Jackson, I heard that everything went on well with you several years ago...
M: De let me forget it. At that time I had a wonderful life and was on top of the world. I don’t know what drove me to seek diversion in poker machines. So pretty soon I was going to play the pokies quite often and yes I was enjoying myself and sometimes even won a few dollars.
W: Is the game so attractive?
M: You never know. It has a kind of magic. I was totally consumed. Anyway the whole story is long and covers the last seven years and though I have tried to be unemotional. I must say now that I have been through hell and I’ve felt as if I was already dead.
W: For so long a time, haven’t you ever thought to wash your hands?
M: When I am gambling, I don’t care about anything else. I know I was addicted and powerless to stop. I’ve lost much. Even so all I can dream of is the big win.
W: Several years has passed, tell us what your feeling is now?
M: I end up just as bad, and hate myself. My health suffered, my finance was in ruin, and I didn’t have the willpower to stop. I have been homeless many times and my life has become unmanageable.
W: That’s a crying shame. It’s high time you turned over a new leaf. Wish you success.
