Gambling and Behavioral Change!!!

[Egii Nna]

It should be a must to know how to control emotions as a gambler so that you wont use out of frustration to destroy what you have built in years in just one day. An alternative to control emotions if its difficult is to get a little bit of alcohol go inside your room, lock the door, drink and sleep till you wake up. After your awake you will have a different feeling and your mind would be at peace because the anger anf rage that was there when you lost huge will all be gone

Actually, you have a funny solution, but somehow it is not recommended health-wise because drinking alcohol to solve such issues is very bad. Let me clarify something for you. For instance, if you drank alcohol to sleep just to forget that you lost your game, did you think that when you wake up from sleep you will forget about the loss you made? So when you need the solution to such issues, I don't think it should be alcohol, because instead of getting a solution to your problem, you will end up creating problems for yourself because high consumption of alcohol causes a lot of medical complications.

So to have a solution to such issues, I can recommend some solutions. I know that no human is perfect, but I will recommend some solution which include, you believe in acceptance, get a limit on the amount you will spend on gambling, take a break when you discover that you are losing more, engage in things that will make you happy, and so on. I believe with this, you can have some peace of mind when ever you lose.

In my opinion, a person's emotions or changes in behavior when they lose at gambling are caused by being addicted to gambling. Because someone who is addicted to gambling cannot control their emotions so their behavior will change to negative when they lose the game. because if we are not addicted, I think when we lose we will not be frustrated because from the start he was aware that we would bring money that was ready when we lost.

Gambling addicts have the opportunity to get caught up in financial problems and negative behavioral changes that lead to family and social problems. For me, alcohol is not the best way to deal with frustration, it will actually add to other problems because if you drink too much alcohol, people will lose consciousness. Maybe for those who are experts in drinking, this could be an alternative. I mean, not everyone can regret drinking alcohol.

Nobody is happy about losing money, but with the right techniques, one shouldn't bother about spending money on gambling. Wagering money bit by bit shouldn't make us sad when we lose the funds, as the amount of money wouldn't be enough to swing our mode. Addiction is the main cause of this, yes. The player may have gotten so attached to gambling, emotionally, that the results now represent his happiness or sadness. He is very happy if there is a win and vice versa after a loss. Gamblers who allow themselves to be under this type of condition should seek help like Op did. We all have these symptoms in us, and being able to discover them earlier on is a good thing for the gambler. Most players would be carried out, with the loss of control and won't be able to notice their problem. Instead, they'll blame it on some other things. Believing that gambling won't be able to get them into such a situation, will only worsen the situation. Using alcohol to change our mood or distract the emotions from such thoughts, could be like adding insult to injury, to most victims.

Alcohol addiction can be created out of it, causing double trouble for the gambler. The addict may now have to drink whenever he finds himself in such an emotional trauma. And this kind of changes he'll be experiencing often. So, that may not be a good alternative, and alcohol doesn't stop gambling addiction. What OP did in this thread is among the best methods of healing himself from addiction, talking to people, and seeking advise. Moving forward, I'd tell him to get his family involved and let them know about his problem. Addiction is not healed by hiding it from people around us. What we get from forums or special interest boards isn't enough to change our behavior. If he's able to notice his problem, then he's still under control of himself, what is required of him is to change his actions towards his kids, instead of being aggressive he can switch it to joy or engaging in fun activities with the children.

Well, when there is a problem in a certain activity, it is due to something and it can obviously be something that is not going very well, sometimes drowning out emotions or what you want to feel, well yes, it is a solution, only sometimes it is difficult. drowning a casino addiction with a possible addiction to an opsa as serious as alcoholic beverages, because that is something very serious too, and even worse if a double addiction can occur, it is a very brave combination, since it is something that would not work. Well, in this order of ideas we can do things much better, have a good time in different ways, I have always said something, if we are noticing a change in behavior due to the casino or games of chance we must do something quickly and that quickly It could be going to play soccer or doing any type of sport so that we do not drown in things that do not suit us, this in the best sense of things to be able to manage a better option of doing things, on a personal level I have always said It is best to attack problems quickly before they grow.

When it comes to addiction it's no joke, it's something that has to be attacked, if the person notices that they are becoming addicted they have to take matters into their own hands and start doing something quickly because that is what can hurt them ugly and making things go wrong, something that is not wanted because we know that we all want to be well and in the good sense of things do the best, then an addiction like this that is so terrible has to be attacked quickly with help, now is to go to the psychologist if you see that you cannot control it, then in that case you have to do something quickly to be able to establish things better and not fall into this thing that is so ugly that in many things the people who suffer from it end up being and being very bad to the point that someone takes their own life, so it is something that should not be allowed that is why I give it so much importance.

Does any of feel behavioral change in you based on the win/loss in gambling. Myself had experienced it, and personally I used to be happy and I used to be polite with my family members and kid whenever I am on profit. On the day of losing it changes exactly in the opposite way, even for simple things I get much anger. Particularly while giving food to kid patience is must. On winning days I let him take his own time and eat. On the losing days I used to shout at him. I'm addicted, and I want fellow gamblers to make a self analysis at regular interval and be on the safer side.

Having mood swing is normal, many individuals use to have it when they're done gambling for the day. If you win, you'll be more happy throughout the day and be more friendly but when you lose your mood will be sad as you have lost money. No individual want to lose money, everyone wants to be making money instead so when you lose you won't be happy, this doesn't mean you are addicted but you have to learn to control your emotions.

When gambling, losing is going to always happen therefore you have to learn to control your emotions or you'll be unhappy always. Be comfortable with losing and keep a moderate mode. If you're losing always then gambling isn't for you and it's better you leave gambling and go try something different that won't make you sad always. When your mood is sad it affects other parts of your life and it's not good.

Yep, gambling will guarantee you losses every single time you play in a casino. Theres no way you won't get any losses whenever you gamble, winning on the other end is kind of hard thing to achieve when you're not feeling lucky especially when you have started the game lossing consecutively. Sure, there are people who can control their emotions and kept their composure despite of the series of loss, but there is always a breaking point to it and that'll happen sooner when that person continued his lossing streak. Therefore, not of us will have an absolute control over our emotions, we are all humans after all.

Yes, People usually lose in gambling but this does not mean that they can't win. The fact that so many people continue gambling and never quit despite of losses indicates two things, First Gambling can make you rich as it is a game of probabilities. Too many losses do not mean that they quit, but rather they keep on trying and luck do make them win also.

The second thing why people continue gambling is because of the entertainment provided by gambling is immense and due to this, people will continue the gamble without worrying about the losses.

Sure, there are people who can control their emotions and kept their composure despite of the series of loss, but there is always a breaking point to it and that'll happen sooner when that person continued his lossing streak. Therefore, not of us will have an absolute control over our emotions, we are all humans after all.

Yes, some people can control their emotions in gambling but only controlling emotions in gambling is not sufficient. You also need to have control over your money management else you can still lose big even though you are one who can control their emotions and do not over-gamble.

So gamble when your mind and mood are good. it will make control over what you do in the casino better. and if you play offline, avoid playing when you are drunk. that would make the situation worse. you have to play in really good condition. Even if you are an online player, put your awareness before your emotions. if you don't want to fail in your game.

Some people don't still understand that gamble is a game, in a game it is either a lose or a gain, you can't expert to win in a game all the time. Gambling is even different from every other games that you can think of, gambling is very unpredicted that you can't tell if winning is very sure. Gambling is a game that people needs to play with so conscious mind knowing that anything can happen,  so it is important that people needs not to to take it so personal and just to play with amount you can afford to lose, so that even if the game does not end well it won't be something painful.

Gamblers needs to learn that gambling is not a game people needs to put all their mind into, they should learn to understand the nature of it that it is not really friendly most times.

Myself had experienced it, and personally I used to be happy and I used to be polite with my family members and kid whenever I am on profit.

On winning days I let him take his own time and eat. On the losing days I used to shout at him. I'm addicted, and I want fellow gamblers to make a self analysis at regular interval and be on the safer side.

I have been gambling for so many years that is hard to tell which of my character traits are coming from gambling and which not. I would say that everybody changes over time depending on the things they are doing. The real question would be now if the changes where good or bad. The whole topic of anger came to me at a much younger age, probably around 12 years of age when I started gaming online. Especially when playing Dota or CSGO I got a lot of frustration after losing and needed to learn how to cope without getting angry so quickly. Which is probably why I never got angry later when I started gambling. Something that I learned through gambling and which helped later when I started to trade, was how budget my gambling money. Building a long term bankroll is very important especially in poker. Playing too quickly at higher stakes tables can lead to going broke during a losing streak. It also helped to work towards a long term plan and get some patience.

If your intention in playing gambling is to make money here and rely on luck, you will definitely not be happy when you lose playing in a casino, whether it is online or physical gambling. Because you have something to gain from playing.

But there are other gamblers who believe that when the only purpose of their gambling is to have fun, it doesn't mattfunor be a big deal to them if they lose in gambling; their satisfaction is enough; that's theirs.

That's the beauty of having that composure to learn with each experience that you earned. Like you, if a gambler learns how to adjust in each situation, that attitude and emotions can be controlled. I like the example of the games that you play that really affect your emotions, especially with the adrenaline rush that you have during the game, as if you are really inside the game, and you wanted to excel to win.

If you take those emotions aside, the chance that there's no trace or any wrong treatment by someone near you will take place, you know how to react, and you know that there are limits and proper gestures. Win or lose, you will just act normally.

I strongly agree. I won't recommend that kind of solution.
There's always another way to solve problems and it's best to not add more problems after one. Our brains might not take it and that means a stressful day, week, or month just thinking about what we have done. Regrets.

I like your recommendation to just accept the consequences, we gambled so it should not be new to us that we might lose in the process. If we are not expecting too much, it will be easier to swallow that fact. We want to win, that's given, but we should also know that we are ready to lose our money anytime because the house edge is there that limits us to winning.
What I do is different, I just sit back and relax after I depleted my balance. Watch a movie or something that will entertain me. Update myself with the recent sports news because I also like sports betting which for me has a higher percentage of winning if you know what you are doing.
Focus on something else to forget about gambling. Casino games are stressful and that's the truth, avoid being in front of the monitor watching the results of the autobet because we cannot change those results with our mind or by watching it. It will just make us mad when we see a losing streak, it's better to do something else and just let it run.

Switching from casino gambling to alcohol is like jumping from the frying pan into the fire. Root causes must be understood. Why addiction? Escape, thrill, or void filler? The answer is within. These root causes must be addressed fearlessly and honestly. You noted that sports are a terrific way to release energy and endorphins. Beware: recovering addiction requires more than a shift from negative to positive activity. Fighting one's demons is difficult

Yes, rapid action! When one sees addiction sneaking in, they must act quickly. Addiction is complicated. The brain must be rewired, not only willpower. Professional help is often required, not merely advised. Psychologists, therapists, and support groups are lifelines. We must de-stigmatize obtaining aid. It shows courage, not weakness. Please know you're not alone and asking for help is strong. Don't allow pride or fear prevent life redemption

Understand the risks - gambling is a game of chance with equal odds of winning and losing. Gambling becomes healthy with this knowledge. The thrill isnt as important as enjoying the event without setting unrealistic goals. Your emphasis adjustment post-gambling is smart. Movies and sports are good ways to distract yourself from gambling results. Maintaining gambling as entertainment rather than worry is self-care.

Do not overlook responsible gambling. Relaxation and distraction are good, but gambling habits must be monitored. Enjoyment and duty must balance. Keeping gambling positive requires recognising and respecting one's limits.

The stress that a person felt when they loss the money that they are not willing to let go, especially if the money is supposedly for important purpose, that kind of stress will swing the attitude of that person and it will be notice as there's changes from the mood of that person, you can't deny that even how hard you will try, it is not easy to control your emotion when you are in regret becuase of a failed gambling.

Undeniable changes that even how hard you want to hide it's uncontrollable and it will comes out in times that you are not intend to release that emotions.

The stress felt by someone who loses money from gambling can increase if he does not realize that he should stop his gambling activities. But because of the increasing stress and emotional factors, he is increasingly unwilling to leave gambling at a loss, and he still wants to turn things around by depositing more money than before. This person has lost control of himself, and if no one reminds him to stop immediately or pulls him out of gambling, he will get deeper into gambling.

This change will happen to everyone, but it depends on how each person reacts to it and manages their emotions so that it doesn't cause problems for them. That's why we have to continue to practice self-control when playing gambling so that we don't experience stress like other people have experienced and we can enjoy the gambling game.

Moving forward, I'd tell him to get his family involved and let them know about his problem. Addiction is not healed by hiding it from people around us. What we get from forums or special interest boards isn't enough to change our behavior. If he's able to notice his problem, then he's still under control of himself, what is required of him is to change his actions towards his kids, instead of being aggressive he can switch it to joy or engaging in fun activities with the children.

If your intention in playing gambling is to make money here and rely on luck, you will definitely not be happy when you lose playing in a casino, whether it is online or physical gambling. Because you have something to gain from playing.

But there are other gamblers who believe that when the only purpose of their gambling is to have fun, it doesn't mattfunor be a big deal to them if they lose in gambling; their satisfaction is enough; that's theirs.

The trouble increases, in all walks of life, once a person thinks of money in any activity he ventures into. Money is a secondary part of anything. In economics, it's said by Adam Smith that money makes people selfish that's why they can go to work every day. Without the need to make money, people wouldn't have been waking up in the morning, taking a shower, and queueing in traffic for hours till they got to their offices. The same thing applies to gambling. It's true people gamble for money. But, there is a fine line of difference between a gambler who is there to learn and a gambler who is only focused on money. The same applies in the corporate world. Most people are not comfortable with their job, not for anything else, because the pay is less. Have you noticed that when the pay gets increased the same person won't be happy, in the long run, because they have no initial aim of participating or being part of the company? Gamblers are like this too, most gamblers even when the money arrives would still get sad or frustrated in the long run for losing the whole money back to gambling.

They blame themselves forgetting that it's just the way it is for gamblers. The same experience serves as an experience to us as gamblers because it's not under our control anymore to just win and stop gambling. The game continues and doesn't stop anytime soon. If a newbie starts gambling with the sole aim of earning money and doesn't see or earn any bucks through gambling, he'd be uncomfortable with gambling or even stop gambling prematurely. But, if he gets few winnings, along the line, you'd notice that he'd continue gambling and wouldn't mind if he's losing more than he's won. The winning only registers in his head, that gambling indeed offers money to people and could be a source of earning money. Hence he'll put all his efforts into earning big through gambling. Added to the numerous big wins of other gamblers sampled on the casino websites. He won't have any reason to control himself until he gets himself into trouble or maybe gets aggressive due to anxiety.

Does any of feel behavioral change in you based on the win/loss in gambling. Myself had experienced it, and personally I used to be happy and I used to be polite with my family members and kid whenever I am on profit. On the day of losing it changes exactly in the opposite way, even for simple things I get much anger. Particularly while giving food to kid patience is must. On winning days I let him take his own time and eat. On the losing days I used to shout at him. I'm addicted, and I want fellow gamblers to make a self analysis at regular interval and be on the safer side.

Having mood swing is normal, many individuals use to have it when they're done gambling for the day. If you win, you'll be more happy throughout the day and be more friendly but when you lose your mood will be sad as you have lost money. No individual want to lose money, everyone wants to be making money instead so when you lose you won't be happy, this doesn't mean you are addicted but you have to learn to control your emotions.

When gambling, losing is going to always happen therefore you have to learn to control your emotions or you'll be unhappy always. Be comfortable with losing and keep a moderate mode. If you're losing always then gambling isn't for you and it's better you leave gambling and go try something different that won't make you sad always. When your mood is sad it affects other parts of your life and it's not good.

Mood swings are normal, but extreme mood swings are not normal. Every person can have good and bad moods based on the situations they are in and the thoughts that are revolving in their mind, but a person who is controlled by their emotions and is scolding or getting angry at others for very small things needs to change this. You can't keep getting aggressive with your family all the time because you have lost some money in gambling and you regret it, it's not their fault, and if you can't control yourself, just stop gambling, simple as that.

Gambling is not a way for anyone to earn money, those who try to achieve that through gambling will have to suffer the consequences. That's why, it's always said that one should only gamble with the money that they can afford to lose so that they don't have to face negative consequences in their lives.

It should be a must to know how to control emotions as a gambler so that you wont use out of frustration to destroy what you have built in years in just one day. An alternative to control emotions if its difficult is to get a little bit of alcohol go inside your room, lock the door, drink and sleep till you wake up. After your awake you will have a different feeling and your mind would be at peace because the anger anf rage that was there when you lost huge will all be gone

In my opinion, a person's emotions or changes in behavior when they lose at gambling are caused by being addicted to gambling. Because someone who is addicted to gambling cannot control their emotions so their behavior will change to negative when they lose the game. because if we are not addicted, I think when we lose we will not be frustrated because from the start he was aware that we would bring money that was ready when we lost.

Gambling addicts have the opportunity to get caught up in financial problems and negative behavioral changes that lead to family and social problems. For me, alcohol is not the best way to deal with frustration, it will actually add to other problems because if you drink too much alcohol, people will lose consciousness. Maybe for those who are experts in drinking, this could be an alternative. I mean, not everyone can regret drinking alcohol.

Well, when there is a problem in a certain activity, it is due to something and it can obviously be something that is not going very well, sometimes drowning out emotions or what you want to feel, well yes, it is a solution, only sometimes it is difficult. drowning a casino addiction with a possible addiction to an opsa as serious as alcoholic beverages, because that is something very serious too, and even worse if a double addiction can occur, it is a very brave combination, since it is something that would not work. Well, in this order of ideas we can do things much better, have a good time in different ways, I have always said something, if we are noticing a change in behavior due to the casino or games of chance we must do something quickly and that quickly It could be going to play soccer or doing any type of sport so that we do not drown in things that do not suit us, this in the best sense of things to be able to manage a better option of doing things, on a personal level I have always said It is best to attack problems quickly before they grow.

When it comes to addiction it's no joke, it's something that has to be attacked, if the person notices that they are becoming addicted they have to take matters into their own hands and start doing something quickly because that is what can hurt them ugly and making things go wrong, something that is not wanted because we know that we all want to be well and in the good sense of things do the best, then an addiction like this that is so terrible has to be attacked quickly with help, now is to go to the psychologist if you see that you cannot control it, then in that case you have to do something quickly to be able to establish things better and not fall into this thing that is so ugly that in many things the people who suffer from it end up being and being very bad to the point that someone takes their own life, so it is something that should not be allowed that is why I give it so much importance.

Switching from casino gambling to alcohol is like jumping from the frying pan into the fire. Root causes must be understood. Why addiction? Escape, thrill, or void filler? The answer is within. These root causes must be addressed fearlessly and honestly. You noted that sports are a terrific way to release energy and endorphins. Beware: recovering addiction requires more than a shift from negative to positive activity. Fighting one's demons is difficult

Yes, rapid action! When one sees addiction sneaking in, they must act quickly. Addiction is complicated. The brain must be rewired, not only willpower. Professional help is often required, not merely advised. Psychologists, therapists, and support groups are lifelines. We must de-stigmatize obtaining aid. It shows courage, not weakness. Please know you're not alone and asking for help is strong. Don't allow pride or fear prevent life redemption

Yes, in fact it is like that, but don't Believe it , I have seen People who are like That , Especially when they are in slot machines in Physical casinos, they are generally older and they or what they do is have a lot of fun , Where everything goes to them the day there in the slots, but sometimes they make the mistake of drinking Alcoholic Drinks and they hang around and spend hours there, when you see them they are drunk and spending money, but in an Impressive Way , it is Something that cannot be avoided See, because it is striking that at those ages you seem to be doing something else, because they are there doing everything so that things happen well for them, it is what amuses them and they usually enjoy it a lot, so sometimes this makes me feel like laugh, because you can't even talk to them, they only communicate with each Other , and of Course their Older people , they are People who Already know each Other and people who in some way have been Sharing with each Other.

The behavior of some people in the Casino is like that , they define their Groups , they are Only there to make this type of Things and well that is something that catches my Attention and on the Street there are other people who don't even speak to each Other , in this order of Ideas we see People who have very diverse Behaviors, and they Can make a Difference if they Focus on doing certain types of activities, so when we see those People we can realize that people take other attitudes, they talk to people as if They will know each other all their lives, but only those who play the slots, entering their world involves Spending all day in the Slots and playing for hours so that they see and Adap t, or one adapts to them, but I consider that it is a lot of work , they are people who only like to try and try until they find that winning Formula , but personally things like this for me are like a lot of Work , but the Behaviors of some People are Strange.

In your statements you have used the word "profit" ! When you calculate gambling by money, you'll never be happy. And obviously it will make you disappointed most of the time when you loss your capital in gambling. Better to consider gambling for entertainment purpose only. Otherwise your behavior will be changed, sometimes good and sometimes it can be become worse. Don't let the gambling dominance over you. Otherwise you'll suffer due to gambling. And never stake higher amount never. Only stake the amount, what you don't care to lose.

Exactly, because when you have the goal of gambling to earn or multiply then obviously losing is something that is really difficult for you to accept, or that means it is not easy for you to accept the fact that you lose when in one of the sessions, this is because of the hopes and expectations that you put on winning so that when the final result does not match then obviously at least you will definitely feel disappointed or maybe even your emotions dominate and obviously this is not a happy or pleasant situation.

This is why it is important to have the right understanding and mindset on gambling, most people misunderstand what is meant by the chances of winning so that with this they think that gambling can be a place to earn, when in fact there is always the possibility of defeat which is completely unavoidable, and means that it is very possible for you when you put your hopes on the final result, especially on winning but it turns out that what happens is that you lose and lose money. Of course when you experience this kind of situation too often then obviously I think behavioral and character changes are very likely to occur in you, you can become more aggressive whether it is in gambling activities or in your life activities and those closest to you will be the first to feel the changes that occur in you.
