Bachmann stopped gambling for a period of time after claiming bankruptcy, showing some sense of control and desire to get back on track, while only temporary. As with most addicts, the sensation, the stimulation, the attention, often draws you back into the negative spiral as evidenced by Bachmann falling right back into the bad habit from which she once almost escaped.
