Have you ever gambled to escape worry, trouble,boredom,loneliness, grief or lose

[BlockEye]

I gamble most of the time when I am alone.

Gambling is a game wherein the rationale of our senses is very important if we are affected by the dancing of our emptions then we would be playing to lose the momebt we step on the table. It is very important to be of sound mind whenever we are playing and that would be affecting your game

Among those feelings enumerated, that boredom suits in gambling best, gambling is designed at first for fun, or to kill some time with some thrill. I bet no one will play it for lose or because they are in trouble since it can be an additional stress for them.

I used to gamble whenever i'm having troubles to sleep or when i'm on vacations at summer and i don't really have something to fill my day aside from video games . Breakups and emotional troubles make me take gambling as a last resort to comfort my self and eventually forget about everything that bugs me .

So it means that you have found gambling as a way to escape from your bad times.  I think that this is not the right way of supplication .you should instead opt for some other way such as getting yourself involved in some serious activity such as a job so that there is no time to think about the past and get yourself worried too much upon this mishaps. When I feel myself bored I usually prefer to go on vacation trip along with my family and do not gamble because it would actually make the things worst.

Depending how you are emotionally affected it's surely better to don't gamble. But some people are very used to stay alone and to pass several days without contact with other people and it doesn't mean they are affected negatively because the loneliness. They can have an organized life, knowing their limits in gambling and being a responsible person. I believe gambling can be a good activity for lonely people if they are able to control their mind.

Gambling has made a way in my life that's made a big impact. For example, when i feel lonely it makes me want to play and play. Not just in gambling but also with consoles and the risk of playing with others in a game with a wager makes me feel fired up. So I turn to it when possible but I make sure I'm not addicted.

Gambling can be sort of destruction to those people who want to escape problems and loneliness in life, others want to gamble because they are worry about money. All gamblers has their own reasons why they gamble.

yup you are right mate, people have there own reason why they are playing gambling. I do gamble for fun, but I play to win my bet. Suppose if I lose I will take that easily. Who will not take their loss seriously they can play safe gambling. 

In fact not taking loss seriously is what really makes the difference.
Losses should be expected in gambling a lot and people should never imagine gambling to be a means of profit making but more like trying out ones luck and expecting the worst. That is the only way it can be easy to regard it as fun.

Definitely we always have to be very careful and try as much as possible to win bet as that is the game and no one loves losing but to escape most especially grief or loss, is like fuel to fire.

As you said gambling will make his conditions worse,it causes more mental health problems, including depression, mood disorders and anti-social personality disorders.It also affects your family and your loved ones,gambling is only purpose of fun but many people are getting addicted to it.So you have to be bold when the tough times in our life,never bury yourself to hide from the worries.

On that day I feel regret ! but for somehow it attract me to gamble again and again so it can't be explain , it's just like a devils pull me in into their zone !

Yes, I do the mentioned above very frequently. As a matter of fact, escaping reality is what man would do to forget about his real life problems. So, he always in seek of a way to get away. Gambling is an example of a good escape, but not always. Sometimes you get worried when you lose.

You also start to drown into darkness without realizing that it would have been better if you faced your real life problems instead of dealing with gambling problems.

Why do you do something to escape reality, you are free man and you can choose to do what makes you happy. Who gamble to escape from reality will lose more then he can we, in gambling you need to be focused on what you are doing, more focused you are more likely you will win. Do things in the best way you can and believe in winning, choosing right game for you and your personality is crucial for success, play skill based games and not just lucky, lucky games are just fun and that games are for running away but there you can lose a lot more then you can win if you aren't lucky.

[pixie85]

No, never. I actually need a clear mind to gamble. I play mostly card games, so I need to focus and rethink my moves each time. I never play on emotions and I rarely do it to kill time. When money's on the line I'm always doing my best.
It's possible to play automated games like dice and slots when you're nervous or sad, but if you lose it at such time it could push you deeper into that state.

I gamble most of the time when I am alone.

There are many people like that. Sometimes, they using gambling as entertainment and forget about their problems, forget about stress even just for a while. But the thing is sometimes even you search happiness or you want to forget about problems gambling can't do that.

Playing gambling when alone and sad is not good for the game and the person who is playing.If someone sad and alone his mental strength might will be low and can't able to make good decision at bet which result in loss of his money.And it also cause mental stress if he lose his game so it is better to do something when he is alone rather than gambling.

[Zabrielle]

Yes. I badly need money that time and for me the only easy way to get biig money is to gamble, if i win i will have more money. It was a disperate move that time because i gamble my money which i borrow from a friend. I was very excited when i reach in e games. E games was an electronic games where you can play slot machine online. But i lose the game. After which i did not return there til now.

[biskitop]

Yes, I was first interested in gambling to avoid worries, problems, and sadness. At that time, I just dropped out of love, the task at school also piled up. Finally, my friend invites to gamble, there will be new friends and having fun together.

I rather drink to avoid these problems and since most of these problems that I faced are caused by the lack of enough money, I don't think gambling and thereby losing money seems to be a very great idea.

well if you already have an issue with financial concern better not to try dealing with gambling to remove some stress while enjoying because the later part of your activity will just added more problem that most of the gamblers faces inside this activity as gambling create addiction and that would
just cause you much bigger problem.

I don't even thing it is appropriate to recommend to someone good on money to gamble to release stress because he might end up compounding stress. No one naturally would take it lightly to loose money and be happy about it and so if you feel stressed or whatever problem you might find yourself in i will state emphatically that go to the movies or elsewhere and stay clear off gambling.

It would really be much better if you divert your mind into those things which doesnt involve on risking money because same as you said if we do gamble on those boredom or frustration,stress times and we do lose up money the emotion that we are experiencing on those time will surely compile even more which would result even more frustrations and depression.

Depends if you are addicted in my opinion because if you can control yourself and you know the limits your bank capital, then you would not bet so much that you could lose everything. It is fun to gamble because it is definitely not boring but you could develop anger issues if you always lose and still play, you would just stress yourself out in the long run.

5 years ago i lost my girlfriend , that one person who mattered the most in my life and that i was going to propose to her just a while later .
Drinking , smoking blunts and gambling were my only resort . I spent days and days in my room without even getting out , showering or eating . All what i did was to get high or to gamble . Running dice for hours and hours , or following sport games to gamble on them, it happened to me that i made bets on teams that i never heard speaking about them before , or i didn't even know in which country they play . I lost lots of money and didn't wake up until my i went bankrupt and couldn't even pay my own rent . Only then i stopped and got back into normal life again .
Gambling won't make things better , it will just make it worse .

Thank you for sharing your story. That just goes to show that no vice can help in any problem. I hope people read your story and that they learn that gambling can never be something that would remove the bad feelings and situations we have. The best way to deal with any problem is accepting it and doing something to solve that problem. Basically, gambling was just intended for fun and entertainment and never something to relieve them of their problems.
