Any changes experienced within body - Gambling???

[Mahanton]

I have phone phobia - I have difficulty attending phone calls and also I experience work anxiety.
So that symptoms may be trouble for you but the other one might not have- You should get rid of the habit for a better mental and physical growth.

I've got no changes within my body but true about mental health. I am noticing that there's a sudden change on my mental health when I can't bear that much pressure to myself with those losses. I guess any of these changes, physically and mentally should have been taken attention seriously before it gets worse. Well, with what I do, I limit myself and place my attention to another thing like watching movies and playing games and so far, it's helping me.

Most commonly it would really be in emotion issues on which i do really find myself on getting way too impulsive whenever i do lost money or certain bets even i do had already in mind that im ready
on losing my funds since it was really my intent since from the start but there are really some circumstances which cant really be avoided for you to make out reactions something like
this. In speaking with illnesses or other changes then for sure it would be mostly those old issues before you do make yourself engage with gambling and it is really just in coincidence
that gambling would really took all the blame.

I think people who have mental or other changes due to gambling are people who are already addicted to gambling, the desire to try to win is always there and when they win they will try to get more profit so that the greedy nature of the gambler is out and of course when lose instantly it will be obvious that the person is feeling depressed and hard to smile again.

Reading the OP post _ I think he is battling what is right and wrong. He wants to quit gambling but he is addicted and he cannot do it.
SO this fight of right and wrong is affecting his physical health. We are forbidden to gamble in our religion. That is why we don't gamble - so I can not comment on any body change- But one thing is clear. Everyone face different problems while gambling.

it's good if you don't gamble (because it follows the teachings of your religion) so you don't experience changes in your body because you are addicted to gambling. let's all pray for a speedy recovery for the OP and many other gamblers out there who are struggling with the body (health) changes that occur because they have been gambling too long/often. Doing something for too long (especially gambling) will certainly be very dangerous for health.

Throughout my gambling experience, the only things I can recall are probably anxiety and loss of appetite. Sometimes when you go on a rough losing streak you'll experience that feeling of not doing anything else for a while. There's also that worrying feeling when you tend to overthink a certain pick and wanted to switch. If i've experienced other signs of pain it's most likely related to what i've eaten or other factors like the current state of your body.

I never know that a gambler being addicted has that kind of possible experience. Personally, I have not experienced any of the OP's listed problems, so I must say I'm a lucky gambler because, despite the fact that I was addicted before, I am not in the worse situation of addiction.

I hope those who are feeling that now, will realize that they are already addicted and they need to seek help if they can't solve the problem themselves.

We always wish the best for @OP. Hopefully, he can overcome his problems and his health can improve. Gambling addiction does present many problems to people and this is why people should always pay attention to their emotions and self-control to take good care of themselves while they are gambling. @OP really needs to rest and stop gambling to avoid more serious health problems. This also requires support from the people closest to him so that the healing process can be faster and he can return to his usual activities.

Gambling is as much a human activity as any other (for example, sports). 

The player must perceive himself as an athlete who participates in competitions. 

For a successful athlete, self-discipline and a special diet are very important.  It is especially necessary to protect the health of the stomach and intestines (stress has a strong effect on their condition).  It seems appropriate to use drugs such as lactobacterin and bifudobacterin.  These are two types of beneficial intestinal bacteria that are able to protect the health of the player even under conditions of very high stress. 

The player also needs "hormones of joy", such as dopamine and serotonin. 

Therefore, after a series of losses, in order to restore a positive attitude to life, it is advisable to eat bananas and drink natural cocoa.

Gambling have brought me big wins as well as drastic losses. If my entire statistics is calculated this used to be in loss. I've tried different plans to keep me away from Gambling, however I wasn't able to do it. In the beginning I never mind when I experience loss, because I was single and now I have a family. I used to gamble without fear.

In recent days whenever I get into gambling I used to experience some changes in my body. Particularly stomach pain and I myself found the difference while gambling and not gambling. When I wasn't gambling I never have such issues and I myself checked Google and diagnosed the below. Does anyone have similar experience. Atleast for my health I need to give up gambling.


Irritable bowel syndrome
Also called: IBS, spastic colon

People may experience:
Pain areas: in the abdomen
Pain types: can be recurrent in the abdomen
Gastrointestinal: change in bowel habits, constipation, diarrhoea, inability to empty bowels, indigestion, nausea, passing excessive amounts of gas, or urgent need to defecate
Abdominal: cramping or discomfort
Also common: anxiety, depression, discomfort, loss of appetite, or symptoms alleviated by defecation

Thank God up until now I didn't feel any change in my body or at least I haven't experienced it yet as who knows it maybe forming.I have had only loss of appetite but only in the moment after finishing my gambling session and having lost all the money.I suffer from a light stomach illness and when I am under stress from losing money I start what is called "stomach cough" for a bit of time.

I haven't have any major pain though nor I think I will have as I think I have achieved one of the greatest self control by playing only once a week or only once in two weeks.

It depends to the mental problem that they're experiencing. On me, it's about not really being addicted but some mental changes like being worrisome and other mental issues that one can deal with.
But if someone is really addicted, there's also some mental issues that would be a sign that they're totally addicted on it and that's a common trait we see from them.

This can be caused by excessive anxiety and restlessness. I myself have experienced it but not in the stomach but in the back of the head it was so painful that I had to be taken to the hospital.
The advice from the doctor who treated me was not to push yourself too hard to think too hard.

Anxiety and restlessness has been my major experience after gambling while waiting for the outcome of the my bets, I often bite my fingernails with my teeth as well as checking the results intermittently, however I don't experience any abdominal discomforts, I don't stress myself so much to warrant any hard thinking afterall I had already placed my bet and after the outcome of the bet I always felt a big relief irrespective of the outcome, if I wins I will be very happy however if I lose I feel bad but all my anxiety and restlessness will be subsided and stopped.

We are the same, but I am not addicted to gambling, so I think it has no effect on me. I just noticed sometimes that spending money on gambling makes me fearful and also, if I was spending on something (not really important), my mind is always saying that this is cheaper than what I lost in gambling. This is really my attitude now and my wife also noticed it. Unlike before, I am really doubtful about spending any money on something not important.

That's caused by too much anxiety, fear and stress! You should take a rest from gambling. The same experience happens to people who get ready to be in a fight, but he couldn't handle it, then suffer irritable bowel syndrome before the actual fight started. I believe that's where the expression, "he shit his pants" came from. Hahaha.

I’d say it’s safe to say if this is happening to you when gambling you should really hang it up, especially if you have a family. I get pissed off when I lose a bet, but it’s not because I can’t afford to lose the bet, it’s simply because I hate losing. I don’t ever gamble what I can’t afford to lose, so I never put myself in any sort of bad position. I know it’s not just that easy for some, and I wish those who can’t control their gambling the best of luck in trying to do so !

[noorman0]

Maybe physical effects like the OP mentioned can occur depending on the tool you use to gamble (about online gambling). Between desktop and mobile will have a significant difference in effect, especially if you are used to gambling for hours. The use of mobile phones that are more portable everywhere will make gamblers more comfortable and more relaxed watching the casino screen.

[hahay]

About the lack of appetite I experience it when gambling especially when I get a losing streak, but about the stomachache I personally am not sure it is because of gambling. I realized that when we lack appetite, it certainly makes our stomachs empty and then the disease begins to spread in the stomach area, especially regarding ulcers, because when the stomach is empty and we don't do much movement or activities that make the body move, it will cause some diseases too. So in relation to stomach pain and gambling, I personally don't really believe it, but if it's caused by a late meal or a lack of appetite due to gambling that makes your stomach hurt, that makes more sense I guess.

It's normal to experience a fear when gambling because we know that the chance to lose is high and maybe you deposit money that for you is already big enough. I can see that your attitude have also change and that only starts by the time you discovered and play gambling?

Well, if that is the case then you better stop gambling now even if you say that you are not addicted because you are still spending money even for some times. If you stop gambling, you will also start to value your money and won't spend it on unnecessary things even if they only cost cheap. It's only amazing that gambling cant only have an effect to our bodies but it can also affect our attitude.

[Reatim]

I don't experience any of what is mentioned above. I'm just a typical gambler who only risk what I can afford to lose, I gamble for fun that's it. However, I will not deny that sometimes I also do mistakes but the good thing is that it does not make me a compulsive gambler.

This is sometimes best if you have no big amount to gamble and your capacity is limited so you wont have a chance to experience those serious Body problem when engaging in gambling.
lucky we are because at any point we will never take this chances .
and besides it is best to stay focus in more serious matter in life than considering gambling to save you from miseries of life.

or maybe this is about the mentality issue? when we are in certain losses and addiction surely our behavior will change and this attitude will turn us to Not paying attention to our health and will followed those OP mentioned.

This is something related to the abuse of our Human body and mentality ,  and surely those who had that effect are more or less addicted gamblers and not those occasional gambler.

Hmm, if he uses his cellphone more often to play gambling, there will be soreness in his eyes, especially if he continues to play for more than 30 minutes to 1 hour. Maybe this will also be felt when he uses the desktop but this will trigger other pain such as pain in the back of the back, neck, or hands. And in the end, the eyes will also feel tired. Maybe he needed to rest for a while after using his tools to lessen the effects that would arise.

For a successful athlete, self-discipline and a special diet are very important.  It is especially necessary to protect the health of the stomach and intestines (stress has a strong effect on their condition).

I guess it's not right to consider diet for athlethes but rather just the basic diet people should get, and maybe some minor adjustments depending on the mood of your body (both physically and mentally). In my experience, having an irregular body (obese) has caused me to be stressed when doing intense or mentally draining activities. I haven't exactly tried it when gambling (I wasn't obese anymore when I started gambling), but it should theoretically be the same.
