How Do You Manage Your Adrenaline Rush In Gambling?

[Slow death]

The only time I used my money to try a game that relies on luck was on a plinko game. When I started playing, I was fine, 30 minutes playing and I had some wins and losses, the problem started when I increased the multiplier, man I clicked the button and I see that little ball going down, down and going in the direction that would allow me to win a lot, my heart felt like it was going to come out of my body from beating so much, and when I saw that I got it right, I celebrated because my balance increased 3x, I didn't stop playing, and every time I clicked the button and that little ball started going down, I got My heart beats a lot, I played for 3 hours

with victories and defeats, but it was a fact that I was winning because my balance was increasing, so I decided to increase the multiplier, my emotional situation got worse, because with an increase in multiplier if I lost, I saw my balance reducing more, that's why each every time I clicked on that button and I saw that bologna coming down, my heart beat faster, I became more anxious and when I lost I became more irritated, more than 4 hours of playing and there were 4 hours of psychological torture, that's because I kept clicking on that little ball and Seeing my heart beat a lot waiting for the ball to land on some number that would make me win was a terrible situation.

after more than 4 hours playing I lost everything, I got up, took a deep breath and thought: I lost my 5$ which had already become more than 13X and I was very angry and wondering why the hell I didn't stop when I was already in profit, to be honest I don't even know why I didn't stop when I was in profit, it was as if I was enjoying that situation of seeing the little ball going down and my heart beating fast. At that moment I decided that I would not play gambling games that depend on luck again and I didn't play anymore. I only place sports bets and I have a rule: I do not add emotions to any of my bets, even when I win or lose and even when I increase the value of the bet. so I can say that the solution to stop the adrenaline rush I got from gambling that depends on luck, was to stop playing any gambling game that depends on luck.

I don't expect you to still have some adrenaline rush in you after you lose your BankRoll, what type of adrenaline rush is that?  ...

The amount of your bank roll is what will determine how you plan to gamble, the risks you want to expose yourself into, I expect anyone to stop gambling the moment they lost their money, and rethink about their strategy before they come back into gambling.

Adrenaline Rush in gambling sounds like addiction to me, this is not an investment where you can learn from your lessons if it goes wrong, with gambling Everything was meant to go wrong with you, and the only solution you have left is to take risks if you can afford to lose that bankroll.

Don't turn your head down after you lose, you already saw it coming, There is no magic behind gambling, it's why it's named gambling.

The reason that adrenaline will be high is if you have taken the risk too high for you. Such high risk is not that you can't afford to lose the money but because you hate to lose it then you feel bad about it.

Why taking such high risk if you want your adrenaline not to be high? So to take lower risk is just fine to keep your adrenaline moderate.

But incase I trigger my adrenaline by taking so high risk, I only try to keep myself happy and that will help to distract me. So I go watch some comedy and that will make me laugh either comedy movies or comedy skit and forget the sorrow.

However, a friend said he tries to reduce the adrenaline by being with a woman which is a recipe to quick sleep  . Yeah maybe trying to sleep can help. Sleep if you can.

In that kind of situation, I will move my main funds to somewhere else and gamble with only the amount I've got from my profits. Also, I'll make sure not to overdo it. Because when you are in an adrenaline rush, your mind won't work the same. Setting a budget and not going over it helps too. And it's all about diverting your mind from one thing to another.

Dopamine detox is a thing. You can search that up on the internet and learn how to do it. I've learned from my research that splashing your face with ice-cold water does the same thing and gives you a rush. It's the same feeling that you get after using cocaine. (I haven't tried any drugs so can't tell the feelings). It quickly boosts the dopamine release and cools down fast. So you get the rush but not for long. This helps to focus your brain on something else. One good thing that I have is ADHD. So I keep something that I need to do later. If there is any situation in which I need to redirect my mind, I look around and try to focus my mind on something else. This helps too LOL.

When the adrenaline comes, your emotions will also increase. This is shown by the desire to get something, but we know it is not easy. We can accept it and try anyway. And if everything comes up suddenly and you can feel it, you should take a moment to breathe and think about whether it is worth it or not if you continue gambling for another round or two. If it's not worth it, you should stop immediately and never think about gambling again. Otherwise, your emotions will escalate, and you can lose control. When the emotion comes, and you realize it, you actually have two choices where many gamblers will choose to continue gambling because they still hope to win.

Cold water indeed works but on my end, I am just turning off my device and just doing other things to calm me down. I never experienced an increase in andrenaline and ending up with huge win 'coz most of the time whenever emotions are taking over your gambling habits, you'd be too eager and frustrated to win, pushing you to your limits and disregarding how huge your losses already. I often play basketball just to keep me away from my PC (where I gamble) or cook something to divert my attention. I regret before winning the jackpot and having a 'rush' which just burnt all of those winnings. This is something we cannot simply control but starting little by little would help you or us to be more mindful of gambling  habits and player's limitation.

I sometimes just laugh at people, because when it comes to making money they expect it to be easy, many people don't know what they are getting themselves into when they are introduced to online gambling.

The addiction is like no other, you just want the Money money money, but once you start losing your funds your brain won't start working, You will think things will get better, and then it will keep getting worse.

Online casinos are very smart at throwing winnings to your door to trap your mind, you will think that a good turn deserves another, and you will still lose everything you've once won before.

Becoming a good gambler comes with a price, and that's been smart with online casinos, be careful of every bets you win, you are expected to come back looking for more.

I have a mild one when playing and it isn't hard to cope with. It's just a little feeling of excitement, so I don't gamble before going to bed as it would make it hard for me to fall asleep, but it can really wake you up when you feel tired and sleepy in the afternoon.

I felt a real rush only a few times and this is that feeling you get when you think you sent money to a wrong address, or forgot your wallet password. You can also feel it when you check your pockets for car keys and they're not there, but you are out somewhere and know that you can't go back without the car.
This type of fearful rush is impossible to conquer, it just takes over, makes you sweat and feel like a nerve wreck.

Personally, I find alcohol useful in these cases. That's why people drink it for courage, because it makes you ignore some of the warning signs and distance yourself from problems.

[Webetcoins]

I always recommend people to take breaks in between the gambling sessions, especially if they are losing constantly, simply just leave the screen where it is, go out, get some fresh air and take deep breaths. You will definitely feel so much better when you are back in front of the screen after about 15 to 20 minutes that you have spent away from it, and that can greatly help someone regain productivity and being able to make the right decisions then.

This relaxation will help the gambler gain control over their emotions so that they can stop gambling when they need to instead of getting angry or frustrated and trying to recover all the losses which basically makes them lose even more and they regret it later which is to no avail at all.

Well, I get this feeling much more with sporting betting, the adrenaline rush starts running in my system as soon I place a bet and the casino confirms that my bet is accepted, I start feeling this anxiety or unrest like "I better be right with this bet, I don't wanna lose this one too", and some times, it makes wish there was a cancel button to bets that the match has not started playing yet .

What I usually do is try as much as possible to ignore, that is, tell myself I am very ok with whatever be the outcome of my bet, be it a loss or win, and also try as much to act like indeed I'm ok.

I get busy with some other activities that is not gambling related, it helps me get my mind off gambling and that bet completely, so I don't have to keep thinking about it and feeling anxious.

And for the record, I don't usually get much of adrenaline rush when playing games like slot or casino games, where I get the adrenaline rush mostly is in sports betting and lotteries, games that will take while before I know if I won or lost.

I don't expect you to still have some adrenaline rush in you after you lose your BankRoll, what type of adrenaline rush is that?  ...

Yup, cause nobody is going to feed well when they are losing their money but you know in some cases it can be a bluff to make the opponent to bet more and engage in the game and then drain their pockets which we can usually see at the high stake poker tables but those people may not worry about their financial status even if they lose their bankroll but as an average joe it differs.

Adrenaline from gambling is short-lived so it may not affect our decision-making ability on the losing occasions and if they still try to chase their loss then it means the individual is so desperate to get the lost money back which is not a good sign.

[Wakate]

I don't know if this actually works for others but I think it's sometimes does for me because when gambling is not something you can be sure of when playing so most times when the loses start coming I do feel this anxiety that's overwhelmed my body telling me to continue that I will get it right soon and I must tell you at that time nothing feels alright anymore because you can even feel hot in a room full air-conditioning so what do I do? Well for most times I just reduced my stake to the minimal because at that moment thinking straight is very hard so when I reduce the loses start looking small so as to remove that flow or rush of anxiety all over my body.

Gaming and gambling is an activity that need relaxation or else we might be force to emotionally do things which can result in unexpected results that could cause us loses. It is good for us to cool our mind when involved in gambling activities so that we can calmly make bet based on our analysis or strategy without putting any emotions. Sometimes when we are making losing, it might look like we are not going to make any winnings again based on the results we are seeing. We need to work on ourselves to have a better winning with all resources we are having.

[goldkingcoiner]

I do not believe that it is possible to actually control such things as adrenaline, as they are part of the human experience and therefore exist in us, whether we like that fact or not. The only thing we can control is how we react in times in which we get that amazing rush of adrenaline when losing or even winning.

But then again, I doubt anyone here has the discipline and patience of a Tibetan monk.

Although even a monk ia human and has his own limits.

[Aikidoka]

It’s hard to manage your adrenaline rush when it comes to gambling but you have to try your best so you won’t fall into a gambling addiction and you’ll end up losing a lot of money!

Personally, sometimes I feel like I would win a lot since the luck is on my side so I gamble a lot of times in a day and I’ll end up usually losing a lot of money doing that; so it’s for the better to control this kind of behavior.

[Obari]

I don't know how best to simplify all you've written but I think one of the best way to put this is, HOW DO YOU MANAGE YOUR BP LEVEL WHEN BETTING? which will also make it more easier to talk on the topic especially for people  who English isn't their first language.
I think adhering to all the simple regulations for gaming will save us from adrenaline rise for instance, betting will only money we are willing to lose and in my case, when I place a bet, I always have 80% hope that the games might win even though he doesn't always happen so I already know that is either I lose or I game.

[Casdinyard]

I personally chase that even. I know it's a little stupid coming from someone who proclaims himself as "responsible when it comes to gambling" but hear me out. I only gamble on a budget, I never go beyond my means and when I gamble, I only do it for fun. If I end up with a net win I usually just treat myself to something nice and nothing else. So when I say I chase the adrenaline when I am gambling, I say that with a positive outlook given the fact that all I'm looking for when gambling is entertainment.

So yeah, some people manage it, some people don't. Nothing wrong about it really, as long as you don't go beyond the limits you have set upon yourself when gambling like how many hours you should gamble, or how much you're allowed to gamble for that matter, you should be good to go.

[dothebeats]

Adrenaline doesn't hit me that much anymore, given that I've been doing this thing for years. Excitement still arises in me when I'm on a roll, but the adrenaline? It's something I no longer feel. I consider myself lucky already when I manage to feel the thrill of excitement, but that's just about it. Before, when I am literally shaking due to the adrenaline rush a relatively huge win gives me, I just stop playing and think of other things. It's hard to continue playing when you're in that state tbh, that it's best to stop and just do other things to get the rush to pass.

So How Do You Manage Your Adrenaline Rush In Gambling when you lose your bankroll but the adrenaline rush is still too high, people who cannot control their Adrenaline Rush are often people who commit the mistake of chasing their losses and adding more funds to their account, amount that usually they cannot afford to lose.

In my case, I stopped drinking energy drinks or coffee this is one of the contributing factors why I have an adrenaline rush and it took to long to subside.

I do not know if I ever experience an adrenaline rush when I am losing my bankroll.  I get this adrenaline rush when I am hitting a huge multiplier because it excites me and makes me feel more alive.  Since I already accept the fact that gambling has more possibility of losing, I do not react much if I am losing my bankroll.

When the adrenaline rush hits me, I just drink some water and take a deep breath to calm myself down and it is somehow effective.

At least, this will give us freshness and can reduce adrenaline and emotions. Many gamblers forget to take a break because they have found the pleasure they seek, so they don't think about taking a break.

If they can gamble moderately, they will not experience increased emotions or adrenaline and will be conscious enough to stop gambling. I also did the same thing as you because I needed to calm myself down due to the loss.

And if I can't calm down, maybe I'll leave the house to see the situation. I thought I could find something else to help me lower my emotions there.

Every time I go to physical casinos, I usually have my preferred budget to gamble. That is my way to manage my finances especially when I feel the height of my urge to gamble again despite of consistent losing. That way, if ever I have used up all my funds, then I have no reason to stay in the casino longer knowing my budget has all used up. I’ll just call it a day and then just hope to win the next time I decide to bet again.
