What could be the Symptoms of Getting Loss in gambling According to you?

[Maxre]

I think that maybe this question might have repeated over time but still I was Saying that I have seen that when we loose almost 50% of our portfolio in loss than we get nervous and we don't know what to do. As we work hard and make our lives better but we end up loosing our money. So I think these cloud be main symptoms. And these are listed below as these are according to me.
1. First things is that we want all in all to cover our losses in just one bet.
2. We use leverage that is more than enough to blow account in matter of minutes and that is very bad.
3. We don't know what to do.
4. We get addicted to gambling and that is bad.
5. We become frustrated and some people end up loosing their lives cause they don't have any choice.

By the way don't Roast me 🙂😜

symptoms?

do u consider gambling a disease or something?

it is contagious.. i'd give u that, it is how i started and there is no vaccine so far.

the only precaution u need to take is self control.

but on a serious note, everyone looses in gambling.

winning requires strategy, money management and a bit of luck.

The main symptom of losing gambling is when greed has taken over the minds and hearts of gamblers, so that we cannot stop gambling even though we have won, and most people do the same thing after being greedy, increasing leverage and wanting their money back, I realized when I pondered why I always lose at gambling, it turns out that what causes me to lose at gambling and continuously is that we have greed within us.
I'm sure that some of you also feel and do the same thing, especially in playing slots.

The first series of losses are the hardest that includes chasing your losses you have sleepness nights you cannot eat and it's running in your head for several days that will cause you headaches, that's what I experienced on my first series of losses, you have no choice but to realize that gambling is not something to make a profit and you have to treat it as an entertainment failure to do it will be your biggest headaches for a few days sometimes weeks.

     -   That's why most people here always say to only gamble with the extra money you have, never use the money reserved for your family or other things to gamble.

Because you will gamble just to think that you will get rich or maybe you will get the jackpot, boom, you will suddenly get rich. There is no such thing, if there is maybe 1% and the 99% are gamblers who always lose playing games. Remember that all types of casino apps online are programmed to only consume the money of gamblers, that's the truth.

So when you are addicted to gambling, this is a big problem for you as a gambler because it will be difficult for you to get rid of it for sure.

You won’t be nervous how much percentage you already loss if you are only using the amount of money you can afford to lose. You will just be nervous if losing certain percentage of your bankroll whenever you are playing a bankroll that is too huge for you.

So I think these cloud be main symptoms. And these are listed below as these are according to me.

To summarize those symptoms. You can simply watch for yourself if you are already betting in uncontrollable manner. I always stop playing whenever I’m already betting more than twice of my original bet when I start betting. Increasing the original bet amount to an insane amount is already a clear sign that you are losing your self control.

Not sure why you're saying symptoms because most of gamblers will lose in the long term due to house edge. If you think gambling is to make money, then you're wrong and better to learn if gambling is only for entertainment.

winning requires strategy, money management and a bit of luck.

In slot, there's no strategy.

Either slot, poker, sport etc it do require a lot of luck because you can't predict the future by using your analysis.

[madnessteat]

I do not think that the sparkling irresponsibility can be conveyed by any symptoms. Virtually every gambler loses a large sum of money and it is good when with this kind of experience comes responsibility and understanding that gambling can only be done with money that would not be sorry to lose. If a gambler does not learn any lessons from the losses, then he had better stay away from gambling, because gambling will bring him only frustration (of course, if he does not turn out to be the lucky one who will win a big score).

[coin-investor]

No one wants to lose money, especially money that you can't afford to lose, losing in gambling is very frustrating if you expect to win but if you're playing for entertainment losing will have no bad symptoms and will have no impact on your overall mental health, the most important when you're gambling is your mental health make sure that when you stop gambling you enjoy it if not you will feel frustrated and it's not good on your overall well being.

[crwth]

What do you mean what could be the symptoms? Basically if you lose in your session in gambling, that's already a loss. There's no "according to you" difference. It's going to be always "when you lose money" is getting loss. There's no other thing about it.

Once you can accept that, then that's probably the moment you would win. Because you will try another day and you would not try to chase ALL your losses.

[Accardo]

The symptoms of getting loss in gambling is going into the game focusing on winning alone. Players who focus on winning alone could get disappointed along the line and make wrong decisions when they fail to win. Other attributes to losing in gambling include failure to study the game and not knowing when to stop gambling. Before gambling a player should dedicate time; 1-3 hours to gamble, and once the time elapse they can stop gambling and do other things. It'll help the player to take their stakes serious having in mind that they have a limited time to play, even if a playing is winning with good discipline they'll stop once the time elapse and play the next time. This also allows a gambler enough time to think over the game and also study different strategies that worked during the previous game.

[AicecreaME]

People get lost in the process of gambling because they don't know when to stop and when to continue. You see, it is necessary to have discipline and self-control in gambling because if you don't, you'll eventually go overboard and chase winnings after winnings because of the profit or chase winnings after losses to get even and earn back the funds you've lost. If you become obsessive in playing to the point where you no longer can distinguish what you have to do, then it's a clear sign that you are slowly getting lost and being consumed by your desire to gamble whatever the motivation behind it is.

Betting what more than you can afford to lose and going beyond your boundaries such as money allocation for gambling and time spent in gambling are mostly the first signs.
in this case, you can still redeem yourself by removing the bad habits and talking to a professional for help to avoid being addicted as time pass by.

You mean "symptoms of a gambler losing in gambling" right? Just basing on the 5 things that you shared.

Overall, the 5 things you shared might be symptoms of a gambler losing in gambling especially the 4th and the 5th one. The 4th one is just pretty straightforward. You lose in gambling, you might end up using more money to gamble and you lose again. As for the 5th one, obviously we will get frustrated if we incur losses in gambling unless we already accepted right from the start that the money that we used is already a loss money. Worst thing a gambler can do is to take his own life just because of the losses that he got in gambling.

There are many symptoms I guess, like the gambler is depressed, the gambler can't focus on the things that he is doing normally because he's thinking about his losses, etc. etc.

There are lots of negative effects that can affect someone when they lose gambling, what you said is true, the first effect that someone will feel when they lose gambling is to experience depression mentally and psychologically.
Most people when they have experienced defeat at gambling they usually do not accept their defeat and they put even more money with the aim of returning past losses, this will only make them lose more money, disturbed psychology makes them do this.

[Jody.Drummer]

But in conditions like that it will actually make you lose even more and I'm pretty sure about that. When you lose at gambling, it would be better if you stop it regardless of how much the loss is because if it continues, it is emotion and greed that will haunt you, which will only make matters worse.
There is still tomorrow and we don't need to rush for it because thinking calmly is actually one way to stop losing. When you gamble and do points one and two it's not worth it because the goal is no longer to have fun but more to take revenge for previous defeats and this is what will lead you to a greater brink of loss.

symptoms?

What a savage comment  the OP should have used characteristics instead of symptoms, it's more appropriate.

do u consider gambling a disease or something?

it is contagious.. i'd give u that, it is how i started and there is no vaccine so far.

the only precaution u need to take is self control.

but on a serious note, everyone looses in gambling.

But on a more serious note, gambling is more or less a disease. The only difference is that diseases are curable with prevention and treatment but gambling once addicted is difficult to overcome unless you are have self discipline to control yourself.

winning requires strategy, money management and a bit of luck.

Strategy in winning? Are you kidding? 

If winning requires strategy, then every gambler will learn the strategy because no one like to lose money to bookmakers. A bit of luck is understatement, luck carry the higher percentage when it comes to gambling with a little bit of strategy IMO.

I can't understand the question, Indicating you're losing in gambling

It's simple, why need really think hard for this one. You're losing, while the money you have at that time it's down from the deposit amount you're made to the casino. That's it's losing, because your money it's down from the deposit amount you made.

The tittle and the topic it's not really suitable, because the topic it's more likely the gambling problem addiction.

You should have known in the first place that once you start gambling, you are allowing yourself to lose and definitely to lose more, so just accept it because that’s how gambling should be. Otherwise, if you consider gambling as an entertainment, losing will be nothing because you have enjoyed your game, so it’s more of a profit than a loss. That’s the reason why we should always see gambling as an entertainment rather than a source of living, at least if we lose, it will not totally hurt us.

[Cantsay]

What I understand from your post is asking how to chase losses in gambling which is not advisable, once you start chasing losses in gambling you're bound to lose more and eventually you loss control of yourself. Or perhaps I misunderstood what Op wrote.
Once a Gambler start to accept the fact or recognize that gambling is to while away time and also only spare cash should be used for gambling hen it's very unlikely for that kind of to become addicted to gambling.

[BobK71]

Every gamblers have a sought that he always wants to win. If a gambler wins one or two bets, does he stop his gambling? Of course not, he does not try to stop it, even he thinks that after playing some time he can make his money more with in few times. In this way he does gamble and loses everything at one stage. The first symptom of a gambler is to spend lot of times in gambling. The more time it gives in gambling, the more he will lose and will be addicted. If the gambling can be managed normally by not running behind profit and loss, then something good can be expected from gambling.
