Gambling Session That Lingers On Or Keep Staying On your Mind

[hahay]

When you start to think of new ways or ways that are the opposite of the previous one that might be good, but if the result will probably be the same as more loss then this kind of thing will certainly make you more depressed. Basically when the session is going on, you are able to leave gambling for a while against the high urge to continue gambling. Indeed, to do that is not easy because gambling has become your lifestyle, but when the results always make you stressed, then as much as possible you should be able to choose to make another session that can at least make your emotions more stable.

Anyone experienced or suffered from this, whether from winning or from losing where a particular gambling session keeps staying in your mind and you'll having sleeplessness thinking about that particular session over and over again, the same bet keeps repeating over and over again and you keep asking yourself what if you do the opposite.
I'm glad I overcome this and I see to it now that whenever I'm login off to casinos I'm playing I will not think about it whether I lose or win.

This is typical not only for gambling, but also for some situations at work or situations that arise in other games like chess or football. There is nothing wrong with this, as the brain tends to focus on important things. Given the fact that they are extremely rare (it is unlikely that you win $100k every night or watch your favorite team win the European Championship every night), there is no need to take any special action.

I never gamble enough to where this could ever be the case.  Sure when I lose it stings (even if it's $5..I'm ultra competitive) and I'll be ticked off for a few hours or maybe a day at the most, but I never let it get to me any longer than that.  If you find yourself in this situation you're likely betting too much and should try and stop for a while, or maybe even for good.  My favorite saying, "you can't change the past, only the future".  So try not to dwell on things so long, you can't change what happened no matter how badly you wish you could, so why stress over it?

This is a pretty good thing because from any perspective, losses will always hurt but on the other hand it doesn't mean we have to be down with the situation because in fact we even know that when we gamble, of course, the biggest risk is loss and we must be aware of this so that When the situation causes us to lose, we are able not to linger in regret there

[blockman]

For me I only feel desperate when I lose. It makes me won't stop until I finally revenge what did I lose on that day but you already know what will be the outcome. Yes, I mostly fail. Winning on the other hand is the one that makes me feel contented.

Yeah, that's the same to everyone who's aiming and wanting to have more because of those losses. We feel that there's a need to revenge and chase those losses.
But eventually, what's happening is where able to lose more and then add more to that losses until we feel uncomfortable and hard to accept those losses because it's bigger than before.

I think it happens from time to time to everyone who plays games, especially competitive games. This is not unusual, and assuming you have lost an important game (or a large sum of money), you will think about it and possibly sleep badly. Although, for example, after something important, I first of all get tired and sleep with great enthusiasm 

[paxmao]

In my case it was long long time ago. I got together with a few friends in a house to watch a match Real Madrid - Barca or something like that. We decide to bet on the result and I got to choose a result, but I was not one of the first because of the draw and had to choose a very unlikely score, I seem to recall it was 3 -2 or the like. However, I actually got it right and won the price against all odds.

This happened back in 2015 where I was around 18-19 years old at that time.

Dota 2 was fairly a new game back then and some beta keys were given in order to participate. Slowly, Valve introduced some in-game hero skins where you can design your characters to look better. Upon this feature, the birth of crates happened in that game where you had to purchase a key ($1.99) in order to open one.

One of my friend introduced to me a gambling website where you can gamble away your keys for profit. During that time, I started with 2 keys and it grew significantly up to 30 keys. This gave me around a $60 profit which was big at that time. Unfortunately, I got greedy and lost all keys in the process and that gambling website subsequently closed as Valve was running against these companies.

This lingered for me for a couple of months and it still bothers me whenever I think about it. Though that may be the case, it gave me an important lesson to always hold my horses and call it a day!

Most times the gambling session that sticks to the long term memory are the ones your nearly won. Maybe you lost because of an insignificant match score or error. When this happens you feel very angry and sad that it become very difficult to forget. You keep on wishing that such error or scores didn't occur. Another memorable gambling session is the one you won unexpectedly. You keep celebrating especially when you are broke. When you are broke and you use a borrowed fund or your last cash to gamble and you win is always memorable. Like my friend won a bet after he has been sacked by his company during the Covid-19 lock-down. He still talks about that win because it saved his family from starvation.   

There is Joy in wining, no one ever want to celebrate loss and that reminds me of a colleague who won heavily, the currency wasn't much if you convert it to dollar since it was in local currency but it was something huge in my place, this guy was almost out of his mind as he lost everything to gambling, I don't know if I should call that addiction but he was after was to make back some money to settle a debt.
This guy lost everything but luckily, a day came and it turn around for him and he won x9 of what he lost so far to gambling, this guy was smart enough to quit gambling and pay back his debt, his now into business.

Yeah this often happens regularly when you make a big bet.
And if I just lose the bet, then the bet haunts me down making the night sleepless for me.
And whenever the bet I placed, I won, my night passes by thinking whether I should have placed more bets on that same game or not.
This is not a disease but a common anxiety that is often seen in every person.
When you love a thing very much and place it in a bet, then it’s common that your heart and mind won’t feel great.
Here the loved thing is the hard earned money.
So yes gaming sessions always lingers on and keep staying on atleast my mind.

Before when i was a beginner in gambling, i admit that there were those sleepless nights when i keep on imagining those certain gambling sessions and wishing that i hade bet on the other side just to stay away from losses. But now that i was totally in gambling, i mean that i'm already used to it, whether i win or lose from that bet, i'm not bothered anymore and i got to have a good sleep no matter what. Losing from your bet, plus you also deprive yourself from having a good sleep, i guess that was a total loss for yourself.

Once my gambler friend explained why gambling doesn't takes your money only, it takes dignity, health, time from hard gamblers who keep gambling all day. It is commonly mental hole in our minds since we can't think anything else except our loses or we should chase big win for recovery or should cashed out at this point, etc.  When you lose profit it is somehow acceptable but being in lose streak for months can be dangerous for weak personality, IMHO.

I am sure that people with this condition belong to soemaddiction. Yes, we know that gambling addiction can happen in someone who can not control themselves from gambling, triggered to play gambling continuously, cannot consider whether they have lost or won, they will keep gambling,moreover they have gambling in their mind always.
I think that if we have this kind of sign, we should need any help from others who really know to control it and recover yourself not to be addicted to gambling. Because once we are addicted, we are very difficult to stop, and we will do anything to be able to gamble, even doing crimes to get money for gambling

^ In every game that we played, we should always have this self-discipline, because when the greed will take over above, that's what will happen, chasing loss all over again just hoping that you will have revenge and cover your losses. But the fact is, you are prone to wipe out all your money.
I had many friends do the same like this, but it is totally different when we are here in the forum because we are highly oriented toward the possible negative circumstances. We know how to deal and manage with it.

Even if it's a big bet like the amount of money that you seldom make a bet, it will surely linger on and stay on your mind, if it's coming from a loan or saving it will frustrate you to lose it and it will stay on in your mind, if you're not comfortable in your loss it will stay on your mind some for hours, others days or weeks and even some for months, we are emotional creature and we have feeling and that feeling stay on, depending on how we address that feeling.

In my opinion, the most dangerous thing in gambling is winning, not losing. 

A loss initially prompts a philosophical attitude towards gambling, but a win can cause an inadequate reaction. 

Winning is a huge challenge for the psychological balance of the player.  The player needs to prepare in advance to philosophically perceive winnings in gambling.  He should not perceive winnings as his salary (which is known to be paid regularly). 

Winning is random.  Fate and chaos are very scary opponents for a careless player.

A person that stake with low amount of money and win thousands of dollars at once, is that dangerous? A person that gamble and lose, win, lose again does that means the person can not become addicted to gambling? No mater how someone is gambling, the person would win and lose, those are normal to happen.

Because someone lost a bet the first time does not mean he will not gamble again.

Nothing change the fact that it is loss that causes depression and the reason for someone not to get addicted because addiction will offer more loss.

Yup, that's really natural in gambling. We surely want to get revenge for what we've lost in the past few days and get greedy but eventually, we all end up on the same road as we end up losing (mostly). Following our instincts sometimes can put us at a risk that we might not evade, that's why it's important that we have the right mindset when we gamble. Of course, that's easier than done but we need to practice that mindset so that we can always know our boundaries.

True and it also happens when you were having a great session of betting and everything was going nicely and suddenly you start having some losses followed by complete haywire and evaporating the balance within moments. It has happened to me a lot and especially when I am playing dice because I am playing with a 90% win chance and 10x on losses so it goes nicely only until I have 3-4 losses in a row and then everything is bad again lol.

Even if it's a big bet like the amount of money that you seldom make a bet, it will surely linger on and stay on your mind, if it's coming from a loan or saving it will frustrate you to lose it and it will stay on in your mind, if you're not comfortable in your loss it will stay on your mind some for hours, others days or weeks and even some for months, we are emotional creature and we have feeling and that feeling stay on, depending on how we address that feeling.

If the money is coming from a loan or savings then one needs to quit gambling right away and see a doctor because this is a direct symptom of problem gambling. I recall when I was betting a lot on bet365 I was once called on my mobile and asked some questions as they normally ask to ensure the gambler is not addicted and one of the questions they asked me was something around "Do you gamble funds which are not meant to be gambled?" something like that in better form and more indirectly.

When you do find yourself to be that impulsive then its better not to engage with gambling because you would really be putting up yourself on big risk of addiction or messing your entire life with.
Gambling is for fun and not for money making and not all would really be having that kind of control or discipline towards it which you should really be careful on doing so.Whenever you do find yourself
on minding or thinking gambling even if you arent doing gambling at all then its a solid indication or sign that you are already getting addicted to it and which you should really be thinking
about it or having thoughts on starting to avoid because you are gradually becoming addicted.
