A gambler takes his own life after a loss.

[Fortify]

Apparently this is a true live event happened in my State this week and almost everyone is talking about it. About a young man that killed himself after a gamble loss, he even left a message for his family and friends before taking his life.  But I wonder why should someone take his own life  just because he lost  #2.5 million to gambling an amount  equivalent to just about $3k. I can relate to his loss but taking your life is something unimaginable and unjustifiable to do. No matter the regrets suicide isn't an option to be taking as a solution , you are only leaving bigger pains  behind for your loved ones.

This is just another reminder to we all gamblers that no bet is sure and guaranteed, don't ever use an amount of money you are not comfortable to lose just because you feel convicted in your mind that the game will play as predicted. There's no such thing as sure bet in gambling.

Question: Is there any amount lost that can make you commit suicide?

If yes, then don't ever use such amount to gamble.

It's very sad that anyone should choose to end their own life, especially in what some might call their prime year's. However there are all sorts of motivation and emotions in life, some people are able to keep a grip on them, while it becomes too overwhelming for others. Greed in this scenario was a very dangerous driver and the ultimate source of this person's misery, but it was self made. He was trying to take a shortcut and unfortunately it did not pay off for him, but would he even have stopped if he did manage to double up? What would be enough?

When someone loses in gambling, it has a negative effect on his mind, many people can control it, while those who invest extra money in gambling, which they cannot afford to lose, suffer a lot and lose control over themselves and hesitate to make wrong decisions.  does not  Gambling is a very bad addiction so it should always be used in a limited way.  And if someone panics and starts gambling then he will have to face a very difficult situation at some point

Therefore, in my opinion, what must be emphasized is our readiness with things that will happen with certainty, defeat and loss of money in the sidelines are definitely happening, so before gambling we should be ready with the loss of money that will definitely happen, allocating a sum of money It is willing to miss it must, because indeed most of the gamblers who are addicted are because they are not ready with the reality that occurs (defeat). Now if we can accept facts with a clear defeat that can happen, maybe we will not be addicted to gambling. they should be able to accept the defeat that occurred, because by not being able to accept their defeat it is likely to make them gamble again in the hope of recovering the losses that occur, but in my opinion when losing gambling and gambling again and get victory, it can't even Guaranteeing to attract victory, because it is possible to have other thoughts like this maybe this is a sustainable luck so it still continues gambling despite having won, because he thinks with still being able to get a greater victory. And most likely all will be lost again and disappointed and disappointed to trigger uncontrolled emotions and re -gambling with the same motive, continue like that until it becomes an impulsive action and eventually becomes addicted to gambling.

When it is addicted to gambling, it will be difficult to recover, leaving gambling becomes difficult, they will continue to gamble even though they don't have money, by doing various ways to be able to make money and use it again in gambling. So there is a possibility that someone who has been addicted to take actions that can harm others, or make loans. Even if it succeeds in making a loan money obtained is also likely to be re -used for gambling. With the end that is certain it will make them upset, someone who already has a lot of debt may be stressed and may end his life by committing suicide, but this does not solve everything, I think there is a family who must be responsible for all the debts they have. It is also impossible for the borrower to forgive him.

You're right,in my own opinion the reason why some people end up killing themself all in the name of gambling is because, probably if you place a bet and the potential wining is 16m as the case may be.maybe is just remaining only one game for you to win the 16m,and you went for cash out and they showed you a cash out of 9m, and you refuse not  to cash the game out, hoping that the remaining one will play unlike the way you expected.on the contrary the remaining game failed what will become of you?that is the reason why some people end up killing themself,some people end up commiting suicide.

Only a greedy person will see a cashout worth 9m and will not take it. One of the problems we have as gamblers is greed. Imagine doing a business and getting 9m or imagine staking a game with the potential outcome of 9m. When we gamble with so much expectation it becomes easier to harm ourselves or others if the expectation doesn’t manifest. The story of a gambler committing suicide is not new to us and I keep asking why a person takes his life because of losing in gambling.

In my opinion, maybe the money the businessman used for gambling was a loan and the shock of paying huge debt with interest might have triggered such an irrational thought. This accounts for one of the reasons we have always advocated for setting a gambling limit sometimes not setting a gambling limit does not only result in financial ruin, it can trigger the gambler into committing suicide or even consuming hard drugs as an escape mechanism.

Totally sad because we do know that its never been worth on killing up yourself just for debts or money. Yes, its not simple to say because we arent on the situation but on the time that you would really
be on such condition then you might be having those kind of thoughts! There are really just that people who are really that not able to control their emotions and this is why 
they do come up with this kind of solution on which they do really believe that they could be able to make out such solution in all of their problems if they would really be taking suicide.
It is really that a very sad story because just like we do all know that there are people who are really that too easy to make out decisions.

Life is precious than money so this is an important reminder that being an irresponsible gambler can even afford to kill yourself without even thinking twice. 2.5M Naira is $1,630 here in my country and that really is big amount of money being lost through gambling but that doesn't mean you are gonna kill yourself because you lose it. I don't know why he do that maybe that money comes from loan or hard earned money or what but yeah what has happened to him serves as a lesson to all gamblers to put limits and be responsible. May he rest in peace!

Actually, it's hard to give an opinion when something like this has happened and there is suicide and death involved, but maybe that person had something else to go through so he did something he shouldn't have done. It's easy to say that it's just money, it can be earned again, but we're not sure if that person can recover what he lost? because if the answer is yes, I don't think it will reach the point where he can commit suicide, or maybe the person is mentally unstable. This kind of incident should teach other people a lesson so that it doesn't happen again.

We should really be that wary that not all the times that it isnt really that just we do have a single problem. If ever that someone do took some suicide then we dont know on what he had actually
have some other problems in life and this is something personal and this is something that cant be known. This is why we cant really be able to judge that he doesnt have any problems
aside from gambling addiction and debt. This is why we cant really drawn out some conclusions whether he didnt experience any depression and this is why it would really be that just normal
that we would really be having those assumptions and possible reason on real on why he have done that. Yes, life is more precious that money but i do agree into those points above that
when you are on the condition or foot of the said person then you cant really be able to tell yourself that you wont really be taking suicide. Problems could be determined on how
severe it is.

[slapper]

Are you for real? If this is the main reason why people commit suicide then we would have a lot of corpses on the street, so I strongly disagree with you. What you just narrated is happening always to gamblers, but have they killed themselves for it? C'mon. Just as it is happening outside gambling that people could commit suicide because of meaningless issues, it can't be different in gambling that has to deal with money. Not to mention that some people would experience the worst in life, yet they will not kill themselves. Drawing wisdom out of this, don't you think there is more to the two? The reasons I can think of are a weak mind and depression. Those who have weak minds are the ones who would even think of suicide when they are depressed. Everyone can be depressed, I have had depression many times, but it takes how we manage it to determine what would result from it. That is where a strong mind is important, No matter the situation, it doesn't warrant you to kill yourself, life goes on, and the situation that one kills himself for is the same situation that another underwent and survives and even later witnessed the "light after the tunnel."

Once a gambler takes note of these two factors (depression and the mind) and is careful about them, then nothing would ever cause them to think about ending it. Besides, we should be careful about gambling, it is never a must that we wager a huge amount of money, and it is best that we plan our budget and gambling portfolio even before we visit the casinos or open the gambling platform. Imagine the example you gave, is 9m not good enough? This would have been much bigger than the money wagered, so why not be contented and leave the rest risk for another day? I only see greed and foolish risk here.

Similarly, I saved someone last month when the person wagered $100 and expected to win $1500 in total. The temptation was that the bet had a sure cashout of $1113. Thankfully, the lady actually yielded to my advice of cashing out and thanked me later. If she had not cashed out at that time, a single game would have spoiled the ticket. We should be wise.

In my opinion, those who commit suicide not because of gambling are also essentially the same because of depression, because depression can of course lead us to do crazy things, such as committing suicide, where when we are depressed what will happen is mood disorders, emotional conditions prolonged period of time that colors a person's thinking, feeling and behavior processes. and this tends to lead us to do things of negative value. I agree with you, we should be able to learn lessons from things that happen due to our own actions. if we really have good thoughts, of course we can take lessons and lessons from things that have happened, but with those who are depressed because of events that stress them mentally and make them do negative things, it may be true that because their thinking is weak, they cannot accept the reality is that the pressure they get is so heavy that it ends them at the point where they want to end their lives. and adding that gambling is related to money and certain losses, of course if we are not prepared to lose money then that will also be a problem for us, so if we gamble, we must be prepared to lose the money we bet. Don't let unpreparedness lead us into bad things.

people who gamble with an unclear mind, of course they will gamble with carelessness, it is possible that they will dare to take very risky actions, indeed if we want something that might be said to be successful we have to be brave enough to take risks, but even so, look at things first. what happens, and whether or not we are ready for what will happen if we take risky actions,  if we are not ready then it's best not to be careless, I found many gamblers who experienced big losses apart from money because they were careless and thought too much about gambling. trivial. I agree with you, we have to be wise in taking actions, not just gambling, we have to be smart in everything we do.

Suicide is serious and deserves more attention. Understanding the intricate relationship between mental health, societal constraints, and resilience is more than mood disorders or emotional conditions. Depression is a scar from fighting invisible enemies, not weakness. Gambling, especially done recklessly, might worsen these problems

All gamblers don't despair, and not all despairers gamble. The key? Be aware and ready. One must understand the stakes, risks, and consequences. Understanding the game's nature is more important than dreading losing. For individuals struggling with gambling or other stressors, remember that strength comes from getting help, not isolation

In no case do I want to judge this unfortunate person with a difficult fate. In this I agree with you that we do not know much about him. In addition to the game, there could be 1000 reasons that pushed him to what happened. Of course, each of us has our own difficulties in life that we must overcome, otherwise they will break us.

Also, many should think that this can happen and should not think that everything in games is fun and carefree. Luck may turn in such a way that this will become a real test for us that we have never seen before this moment. In general, I still prefer to play very carefully and with small bets, and in no case do I try to win back under any circumstances, because I have previously experienced negative feelings about this and do not want them to repeat.

[swogerino]

I of course don't want to judge the specific person who took his own life because of gambling but I want once again to re emphasize the importance to keep believing in yourself no matter how difficult or impossible the solution one have to remember that times heal everything and everything can be recovered with desire to turn things around and strong self will to do so.The people who commit suicide I don't know what they think but that is never the solution to any problem you may have.

When the gambler lend beyond his limitation, he becomes so depressed that he can't think straight. At one point he became depressed and became terribly angry with his personal life and chose to commit suicide. There are some people who cannot tolerate being hurt by others in their personal life. Those emotional people do things on the basis of their emotions which are very abominable. We consider gambling as one of the means of spending our leisure time where a gambler enjoys it. But if one endangers his own life because of this gambling it is never desirable. Gamblers must be mindful of their personal lives. Conducting unregulated gambling may lead to an increase in untoward incidents. Besides, there must be a limit for those who gamble emotionally.

That's why no one should take gambling as a part of income or as serious. if they are not able to control themself then they will mostly suffer a lot and in the some point they can start taking loan and When they are faced with huge loans and they lose the ability to repay them, they will choose suicide. so one should not be emotional in a place like gambling. then it can lead to their death. gambling is very dangerous for them who get addicted on it. but who take gambling as a fun purpose they can enjoy

It was obvious he did kill himself because he lost his gamble. This I believe happened as a result of his irresponsible gambling lifestyle. Possibly, he might have gambled with a loan he secured for business thinking he would cash out through the game he played but it did not end well as he planned as he  possibly left with nothing to cover up the lapses.  I believe the thought of fear and how to pay back led him to cover this .

That amount in question is not too big but to him it might be a big asset which he has already put in mind to use for establishment and it went south which he could not bear the lose and resorted to taking his life. I wish he had realised  earlier  that gambling does not guarantee him winning at his own will then.he would not have made such a mistake that resulted in him taking his life.

Besides of the reckless gambling, in my opinion those who choose to attempt against their own life are very likely to be suffering from a very serious mental health issue. I also try not to judge the situation which those people could have gone through in the first place, but that amount of money is no reason even consider to end ones existence in any way, shape or form.

I wonder whether there could be a way to make people who suffer from mental difficulties or do not have a good mental health to stay away from gambling, you know, it could help to decrease the amount of sad cases we all read about on social media and on the internet in general. All of us are supposed to be free to take our own choices own whether what to consume or what to do with our own money, but there must be a way for discourage unstable people to play around with their savings and thrus decreasing the percentage of suicidal gamblers in the ecosystem. It is a very complex debate between those in favor of freedom and those in favor of health.

is a true live event happened in my State this week and almost everyone is talking about it. About a young man that killed himself after a gamble loss

I do feel bad whenever I see people commot suicide, no matter the condition which you are, suicide is not always an option, any amount which you lose from gamble, if you stop gambling and you focus on your job, then you will be able to recover, if you commit suicide, then you will put your family and your loved once in pain, no matter the condition which you are, their is always a way out, so pls no matter what we are facing, commit suicide should be the last thing which you should do.

But I wonder why should someone take his own life  just because he lost  #2.5 million to gambling an amount  equivalent to just about $3k.

People like this are the once that makes people in the society think that gambling is a bad activity, why do you have to loan to gamble, and why do you have to commit suicide after mistake like this have happened, the best thing is to learn from mistake and never allow similar thing to happen again, instead of commit suicide. Anybody that hears that he committed suicide because of his gambling loss, will automatically see gambling as a bad activity.

[junder]

Understanding the game's nature is more important than dreading losing. For individuals struggling with gambling or other stressors, remember that strength comes from getting help, not isolation

maybe because they respond wrongly to gambling and cannot accept the reality of losses that will definitely occur. so when they lose they have a grudge to want to reverse the losses that have occurred and by gambling again that is their choice, but because they cannot accept defeat by gambling again, it is likely to end in losing again and their hearts cannot accept it which in the end they are on their own. experiencing their own problems with gambling which may become more serious so that impulsive actions occur and continue like that until everything goes wrong. wrong thinking can lead to serious problems, and wrongly responding to the final results of gambling can have fatal consequences. and not only with losses, if we can't handle gambling well when we win, maybe it could be a big problem, like the desire to win more, everyone definitely wants more wins, especially money or profit, everyone definitely wants it so there is a possibility that greed can also get the better of them. where this greed can lead them to something that carries big risks, such as continuing gambling by increasing the number of bets, which will most likely cause the winnings that have been obtained to be lost again and the losses that occur will make people feel confused, irritated, angry, disappointed, and even vengeful too. maybe there is.

What you say is true, whether we win or lose we must be able to respond well, be aware of the risks and consequences of gambling. In my opinion, most gamblers experience big losses or experience stress because they are not aware of the risks and consequences that exist in gambling, because they only think about winning in every gamble they make. Few people can gamble healthily, because the temptation of gambling is very strong. So many people are lulled into gambling which leads to depression and big problems. However, this happened because of one's own actions, which was wrong in responding and treating gambling incorrectly, gambling excessively but oneself was not prepared for the fact that it was definitely his fault that would happen.

This is what greed do cause, it makes one to carry out some actions without considering if the result turns the other way round, if we will be able to accept it. If a lot of gamblers think about losing the game and how will that lost affect their lives negatively, I believe that many of them will not use a certain amount of money to gamble.

The deceased gambler like you said was looking for a way to double the money, because he thinks that gambling is a get rich quick scheme. Unknown to him that gamble is a means of entertainment, and he used the money that he cannot afford to lose to gamble. So sad that he didn't have anyone around him to talk some sense to him, maybe he might not have committed suicide.

[dansus021]

 But I wonder why should someone take his own life  just because he lost  #2.5 million to gambling an amount  equivalent to just about $3k

Bro it is not about the money I believe is more than that that is why we need to take control our gambling habit because things can be real. In the lowest point of life people can kill other people just because of food I believe.

But yeah this is crazy suicide isn't the answer really, if you guys addicted please just look for help not suicide

Besides of the reckless gambling, in my opinion those who choose to attempt against their own life are very likely to be suffering from a very serious mental health issue. I also try not to judge the situation which those people could have gone through in the first place, but that amount of money is no reason even consider to end ones existence in any way, shape or form.

I wonder whether there could be a way to make people who suffer from mental difficulties or do not have a good mental health to stay away from gambling, you know, it could help to decrease the amount of sad cases we all read about on social media and on the internet in general. All of us are supposed to be free to take our own choices own whether what to consume or what to do with our own money, but there must be a way for discourage unstable people to play around with their savings and thrus decreasing the percentage of suicidal gamblers in the ecosystem. It is a very complex debate between those in favor of freedom and those in favor of health.

You can not be able to detect an unstable person at first engagement. It takes a deep thought upon first interaction to note an unstable person
 At the casino, there are lots of people coming in and going out as well so you never can tell who is who as a result of the environment being filled up with gamblers of all kinds and besides that, the casino can not really tell if someone is unstable but rather they are just after their money without being observant.

The only people that could stop a mentally unstable or deranged person from gambling is their family and loved ones who knows their state of mind. No outsider can be able to note that because they are not close to the gambler. Have you not had this experience where you meet with someone for the first time and you could not observe the person properly but as time goes on for the time you have been with the person, you begin to see the other side of the person which you never thought of. That is how the situation is. So casinos can not be able to detect such and even if they do, they would not say anything because everyone has the right to associate and not only that, it is a business venture so they would want to collect money there by ignoring what ever they have seen.

I hard that, in the last African football tournaments alot of people died from various reasons, one of such may not be far from this story as losing alot more than you can afford may lead to such incident and i ask again why should someone bet all his business money on a bet that you are not certain of it outcome, i think those who act that way are either addicted or misinformed about what gambling is and how to handle it tension.
Other reason why people dies suddenly during games is heart attack,  this could be as a result of having underlying health challenges before viewing a highly intention match such as if the country is playing,  many people lost their life from this incident in the last AFCON game in my country.

I am aware of it, realistically it is obvious casinos do not have the resources nor the motivation to somehow invest money into keeping mentally unstable people away from gambling, that is not their job. Their job is to provide a service to anyone who is legally in capabilities to partake on it.
I am just concerned how people who are not supposed to gamble, drink or consume some drugs are able to do so regardless of themselves and their family members being aware they are not supposed to do so.   . Some people could argue it is part of the responsabilies all of us have as adults living in relatively free societies.
Don't you think it would be awesome if people could have access to mental healthcare as easily as they can register on an online casino or buy illegal drugs in the streets? It is just curious how it is always easier to slip down the bad path than climbing up to the top of the mountain and improve our own situations, and believe me, sometimes family does not help, rather make things worse for those who have serious problems with gamling...
