How do you get over a bad loss?

[348Judah]

What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?

When I make a bad loss (big loss) I try to read novels/watch movies and/or I try to take a rest. I stop playing/gambling for a few days/weeks/months and I try to restart playing after several days/weeks/months. And I continue playing until I make another big loss on another gambling/casinos.

I got surprised by a gambler that tells me about his kind of lifestyle on how henget over the bad losses whenever he gambles and loose, he said he go to the liquor bar and get drunk to forget everything that has happened all through the day and over night, but i keep asking that the mark it has created on him will still always bear the dent everytime he remembers, getting drunk is not the solution because the alcoholic effect may only last but few hours, wjen you're back to your senses you will still remember the losses, thiugh i try to suggest to him to retrace back his steps, gambling taftics and take low risk by using a small amount to gamble with and in due time he will begin to realise some changes from how things have been before and present.

It is difficult on my own part. I will feel extremely sad throughout that period i have not been able to find a way to calm my nerves when i experience heavy loss. Sometimes food works but not always. If the loss isn't much food can help me get over it but when it involves something huge i have to wait till i am able to get over it myself

Maybe you must leave all activities for a while to recover from the loss.
It's hard but you have to try it if you don't want to experience constant sadness.
Whatever losses you experience, you must be able to calm yourself down because otherwise, all your activities can be chaotic and you can't focus on doing them.
But I'm sure you can handle it and even if it takes time, it's okay and it's better to keep trying to calm down.

The first thing I try to do after a loss is to distract my thoughts away from it. To do this I try to find a way to  channel your energies. Honestly, it is not easy but then in the long run it produces some sort of relief for me. The dangers of not trying to distract my thoughts and focus on something else is that, if I focus on the loss, I will automatically gravitate towards it. And I end up never forgetting it. In addition to the above, I do not shift the blame anywhere else, as this will creates excuses. I ensure to take responsibility for the loss and use it as my drive. During this period, I listen to my favorite songs, go for a swim, and catch up with old buddies via phone calls.

When a gambler is repeatedly losing money in gambling, he must find out the reasons for his loss. He must come up with a change in his strategy. If it still doesn't work then he must take refrain from some times and find his lackings again. Luck is an important factor in the gambling life if it is not favor then there is nothing to do. If you keep losing, taking a break and restarting it, will definitely be effective.

Reading novels seriously? I think this one needs imagination but it's hard to do that when your mind is still occupied with a bad a loss which you got earlier but maybe watching movies can be doable since you are already seeing the visuals in your screen. Taking a rest is also one of the things that is hard to do when your mind is not yet in the mood but it can be possible once you are done watching a good movie since your mind will now think of that movie and you start to forget about your bad loss.

It makes sense to quit for a while because your budget for the week/month is already used up but some addict gamblers will look for ways to obtain money to play gambling again. Let's hope we don't lead there.

You are right when there is a significant loss there thinking/imagination power should decrease but I feel okay with reading novels though it requires more concentration than watching any movie or something like that. But I enjoy reading romantic novels very much. Actually, I try to minimize my depression after making a significant loss.

What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?

For me, the thing to do is clearly obvious: to disappear.
Normally people do this when they earn a lot. But it happens to me in the opposite way. If I've lost big, I need to be away from gambling and my daily life for a while. I usually go to my friends outside the city. I'm gonna take a walk, try to distract myself. Because if I force myself to keep going, I'll lose more money. After relaxing a little, I go back and continue playing.

Quit gambling for the time being for time is the best thing you can do and it saves you from losing more money. I know some people cannot bear that they have lost the money in gambling, they keep on playing with the hope that they may recover their loss but usually when you play for revenge gambling, you will lose more and more. There s no way gambling houses will give you chance that you recover your money.

You can stop gambling for the day, or week depending on how big you have lost. I have allocated certain budget for my gambling need and if the budget is exhausted i am done with gambling and wait for the next month budget to gamble. In this way, i know my limits on how much i can lose in a month and it eases pressure on me and give me pleaser & fun while gambling.

If he's already lost repeatedly, there's no need to find out or try to recover from his losses because that could trigger him to take even more losses.
All he needed to do was restrain himself and leave the casino before it was too late and he only regretted losing so much money.
Luck is a factor that every gambler should have and if they don't see their luck coming after a few spins, he doesn't need to continue it but just stop immediately.
And by leaving the casino, he can rest and relieve tension after playing and if he can do other activities, he can quickly forget about the disadvantages of gambling.

Calming yourself after suffering with big losses is not an easy task but yes it's doable just needed to have a good mindset, and a lot of diversion to take time moving away from your gambling activities, it's not easy as it is but by practicing things it will not new to you. You can keep your gambling after recovering yourself from that experienced.

Doing other alternative activities that can keep you away from gambling will allow you to think clearly.

Once you come back, you are all clear and you will be able to enjoy your stay.

That is only a temporary solution as you say,I always get enraged when I lose a big amount and I lost a decent amount just a couple of days ago as I was deceived by the slot machine,it gave me a lot with the lowest bet thus making me raise my bet and losing it all soon after.I always after such happening get enraged and think that I will quit gambling definitely while the maximum I have stayed away is just a couple of days or a couple of weeks in my best tries,this does not work for the longer term when you quit for the time being.

Trying to recoup loses is the mother of all evil in gambling which leads inevitably in most cases to gambling addiction,it should be avoided at all cost.

there's no better method than diverting our minds to other activities that help lighten the load after a bad loss.
like you said, it's not easy for us. because after all, psychologically we are more motivated to make deposits back and recover losses. however, what if luck is not on our side, only another loss that we will get if we follow the ego to make a deposit again.

the only thing we can do in that bad phase, is to distract ourselves. seems complicated, but with full understanding and awareness. diversion of the mind to other activities, is a medicine for us to avoid even greater losses. and we can start, when the situation is back to normal.

That's not a solution that he provided but rather a way to cope up or get over with the loss during his gambling session. If you want a solution or a permanent solution to avoid losing money on gambling is to stop it. You might enrage with you loses however quitting for a while and doing other things to get your mind of it will relieve your rage or regret on your gambling activity.

Continuing gambling while you're at loss or even ahead will likely end up bad for you as you will likely loss all of it on the long run.

I agree, if you are personally feeling like there is something wrong and you should stop, or feeling like you are too much angry at something that you are losing money to that you don't have to, then it's a problem and you should stop. I gamble because I have fun, I do not feel like I am losing money, I feel like I am having fun and in return paying money to the place that allowed me to have so much fun.

But, if you do not feel that way, if you are feeling angry and enraged, then why would you want to pay a place to make you feel angry? That just doesn't make any sense at all. If you are having hard time quitting, get professional help as well.

Depends on what you like with gambling. If you really intend to stop permanently then you will have to accept the loss and burn all the ships behind you. Often people go on and have too much lost money in their heads, that's when the problems really start. It's hard not to think about that. That is why bank role management is important. Many people have said it many times before but I want to repeat it again: only play with money you can afford to lose and consider it play money. You should not gamble knowing that you will get rich quickly, because the only thing that will happen quickly is that you will go bankrupt.

Once you do make out deposit on a gambling site then you should consider those amounts to be lost already because in most cases where gamblers do always lose their money on the end which means
that if you had already been anticipating that your money is lost then losing them wont really hurt that much and you wont really be that minding that much which means it woudnt really be that stressful
on your part.There's some people who arent really that good when it comes on handling out their emotions and reactions towards losses which it do end up on being impulsive
and ending up on making bad decisions which is something that not really that appealing to look at.

Such a mentality won't arise, but it is how we need to get into gambling. We should not expect the amount to be ours, once we've made the deposit.

Luck is the prime factor that gets us win, even though we're good in making strategy and decisions on the outcome of the events.

Handling emotions is a must, because most of the time when we experience loss we loss control and end up losing everything. For that if we were able to keep ourselves under control we can limit the loss.

Getting over a bad loses is just too uneasy for us especially if we have gamble with the fund that is meant for something else. It is never easy like the way we might think depending on what particular game took the money and what the money would have been used for.
Getting over a bad lose is uneasy and slightly difficult to achieve but we might not have the full momentum to get over but all we just have to do is to keep moving in respective of how huge the loses could have been.

What's your favorite thing to do when you get a bad loss?

The only thing that relaxes me when I always lose playing gambling here in crypto gambling is watching movies like action, comedy and

motivational shows and I often watch them on Youtube, Prime Video, and Netflix. That's why they are also a big deal for me, sometimes I walk

around inside our subdivision with my son or eat outside to unwind with my family, things like that.
