Gambling and health concern

[FinePoine0]

It's New Year here in our country and I happened to bump into an old friend who narrated a story about how he almost suffered a heart attack after he won a big amount of money in a casino, this was several months ago, he's lucky that his son was around at that time so he got the right treatment at the right time.

He did not know that his hypertension had gotten worse since he can gamble even if he has this, he is taking medicines and doing relaxation but big winnings must have triggered this.
My question is :
Do you know the status of your health while gambling and what do you do if you happen to suffer a mild or hard stroke?
This is why I make it a point to open my messenger and have my loved one that I can contact in case, whenever I'm playing alone.

When I gamble I usually start gambling by sitting quietly alone. Because I like to gamble alone so that I don't have my mind on the other side, I prefer silence all the time. But considering all your information it is very foolish to be alone, it is normal for a gambler to become addicted to gambling and later die. So I am careful from today that I will never be alone, even if I gamble with a small amount of wealth.

I have relatively rarely heard of cases of people having a heart attack from unexpected good news. But this really happens. By the way, health problems can be expressed not only in a heart attack. This could be an attack of bronchial asthma or an exacerbation of a gastric ulcer. Sometimes even a migraine attack. As a rule, this happens when a person’s disease is in an already advanced stage. In the initial stages of the disease, it is almost impossible to see an attack because of the very good good news. What can I recommend here? There is only one thing: if you have a disease at such a stage that even good news can have a negative impact, then protect yourself from any excitement and certainly not gamble.

It actually happens that some got this heart attack through the process of being perplexed and shocked with a breaking news, after all expectations had been raised, however it's not what is that common like that, some say that heart attack is something hereditary while some made mention that it's what we do to ourselves that the body response to, some also believed it's as a result of being going through series of addictions is part of what causes a heart attack, all these are good enough to make us realize that we needs to gamble the way it was being expected.

It must be said that if it weren't for gambling, we would still have many other things around that affect our health. I can feel the OP's story but it's not everything that exists in the gambling. Looking at this issue from the perspective of a patient, what you need to do is protect your own health, not equate it with activities surrounding it.

I can describe a case from my own perspective that when I heard the news of winning the lottery, I was happy and jumped around the house and accidentally hit the chair. Yep, I hurt my leg as well as damaged the chair because I lost my temper. Sometimes some external things act as a trigger to stimulate us, but in fact, if we understand ourselves, we will have more control and calmness in every situation.

I don't think gambling could affect our mental health except when we are gaming and gambling too often. It is good when we have a plan and strategy that we follow and if it does not give us signal, we are not betting. This is a better way for us to bet and make money from the market. Gambling can be disaster if we don't plan and unify a strategy that would always compel us to gamble everytime we are interested in gambling. Since health is wealth we need to be very ready to take every decisions that would aid us and stay disciplined as gamblers without taking too much risks.

Every living been you see walking and breathing has an underlying one health issue or the other but not necessarily be a heart ache issues, it could be liver, kidney, eye and other organs of the body, sadly many of us don't take care of our health or go for check up until they see symptoms or even become worse. Some is because of bad health care system, no money to take care of their self. While this should not be an excuse, we should always study our body and go for regular check ups to know the status of our body system.

It is rare to see someone young collapsed unless they have heart problems but if the person is a old person, there is likely such to happen. You know as we age, we tend to develop one or two health issues and hypertension is one of them, a person with a heart problems tend to collapse quickly when they are overjoyed or over excited, nor reason why old people should stay away from anything that will lead to such. If you have one, it's better to you avoid too, not gambling is not the end of the world because even loss can make one collapse when you lose a significant amount of money.

It's natural because every gambler has different habits in enjoying their gambling sessions and maybe you are one of those gamblers who prefer to spend gambling sessions in solitude, no one forbids because all decisions are in your own hands, and maybe by now you already know that deciding to spend gambling sessions in solitude will trigger things that are out of control to easily happen. One of the reasons is because in such a situation there will be no one to help you enforce some of the boundaries you've set, and chances are you'll get carried away when emotions get the best of you.

So maybe I don't have a problem with your decision to gamble on your own but I don't think it's a good decision because it can lead to out-of-control actions that can eventually lead to addiction, on the other hand, thank goodness you have realized everything and I hope you stay firm with your new plan.

This happens because they themselves respond wrongly to gambling, thus making them addicted to gambling, because in my opinion someone who is addicted to gambling, of course the addiction alone will damage their mind, and over time they will be affected by mental stress, as well as other health problems. could be affected by gambling addiction, if they responded to gambling appropriately perhaps this would not have happened. because addiction often leads to bad things, such as gambling or drug addiction, both of these things have the same side, namely they have bad effects if you become addicted to gambling.

someone who is addicted to gambling will of course experience financial difficulties, while everyone certainly doesn't want to experience problems in any way, especially from a financial perspective, if they experience financial problems then it is likely that they will experience stress because of the financial problems that many people feel. people, not even just people who are addicted to gambling. Financial problems can make someone stressed, therefore I think don't gamble excessively because it can have an impact on our mental condition and thoughts or more specifically our own health.

We don't want to experience such hardships and difficulties but it just comes naturally based on our choices and the decisions that we make. And there's no other result if someone is an addicted gambler. There goes the result that typically are good in the beginning for that made a person addicted to gambling.

But we all know what's the end game of it or the long term results of it and that is going to make someone financially unwell. As we tell other gamblers to control themselves and when they go the point of losing everything, that starts to affect their health as well when they can no longer bear the losses.

of course everyone doesn't want to experience that, but many of those who gamble unconsciously make them addicted to gambling, even though at first they are just trying it out, they will become addicted and over time it will make them addicted to gambling. , with the impact that they will feel on themselves, namely addiction as you said, and with this addiction it will make them continue to gamble, which can be said to be addicted to gambling.

Yes, that's true, if they gamble for a long time then they will experience a lot of problems of course the main thing is financially. with those who have become addicted to gambling, of course there will be quite a lot of losses, even though they gamble for fun, but one day they will think that much of the budget they spent on gambling has been lost. Moreover,  if they cannot control themselves when gambling, it is likely that they will become seriously addicted to gambling.

It is normal for high blood pressure to cause heart attack and especially when people are very happy and when they are very sad. In fact if the heart bird is strong enough then you can do anything and you will have no fear there. In this way i can always control myself and when i go to the casino i only play with a certain amount of money and keep that amount of money attached to the bet of winning and losing so if i lose i can easily fix myself because i personally have extra money. I have never won big money so I'm a bit out of touch with experience from this point of view.

Heart bird? I think that sounds funny. Maybe what you mean is heart beat? But if it's strong, I think it's not healthy and it's an indication of the two diseases that you said earlier. But even if our heart beat is at a normal rate, it is still better to not be confident enough. It does not mean that we can now do anything.

Many of us are controlling our selves in gambling but this isn't because we are mainly afraid of getting a heart attack but it is because we are afraid to get addicted on it. Addiction is more than a heart attack but it can be included on it. The reason why you can't win big money is because of your capital. It can also be on the game that you are playing. But again, it should not be the centre of gambling, so don't be jealous of others who did it.

Especially when people get big wins, of course people lose themselves in joy. So of course high blood pressure is more likely to cause a stroke, so I think it's best to keep a friend or loved one close by when joining the casino. My friend is by my side when I also indulge in gambling. But when I play at the casino at night there is no one by my side, but this time I never thought about it like that. Of course from today I will keep my communication channels open to talk to loved ones.

But what if we think back, and make a different scenario when someone who does gambling without being known by anyone, and then he uses excessive money until he has no money in his account or balance, and some of them he sells what he has to gamble, then when he realizes he has nothing because of continuous defeat, In the end, this person becomes frustrated, depressed and becomes stressed, his mental health deteriorates and then becomes crazy, I found like this twice, although this does not damage physical health, but technically he is no longer a healthy person, or goes crazy because his mental health is damaged due to irregular gambling and without anyone knowing.

THIS story is different from the OP, and is the opposite, the OP tells of a win that makes someone shocked and my story is on a losing gambler that can make someone lose their mental health.

Bro, don't let the OP scare you, live your life as you want to, why gamble with people or around people? This is not a must, and I believe that gambling most times is a personal affair, People shouldn't intrude, and to many, they can't even concentrate or make a good gambling decision when people are around them or know what they are doing. What the OP says is not so strange, shock can happen to anyone be it through gambling or not, so you should not entertain fear in living your life. To many, it will be other things, so they can never be alone ever in their lives? Common.

Be it alone or with people, just make sure that you know how to control yourself against any outcome in gambling and other things. This is for everyone, we should not let anything affect our psychological or cause sudden unexpected reactions for us, that is what triggers the bad effects. If you can do it, you can be alone and do your thing, especially when you are not an old person and do not have any history of stroke or hypertension and the like. People are engaging in so many private things that deal with money and surprises, yet they live their lives as they want, while some private people mostly sit alone and nothing bad happens to them. Not that they do not see surprises.  You may also want to be betting with a small amount to reduce the effect of big money whether you lose it or gain it if you know you are not sure of yourself.

Gambling is alone, which can be disadvantageous. It gives people independence and control but isolates them from critical feedback and intervention, which is harmful. Solo gambling lacks external checks and balances, so one more game or bet can seem harmless but isnt.

In high-risk situations like gambling, emotions influence decisions. Without restraint, emotions might increase in solitude. Impulsive choices, chasing losses, and addiction may result. Set boundaries and get the tools and assistance to follow them.

Finally, acknowledging dangers and planning is commendable. Be vigilant and proactive. Set time and money restrictions or involve a trusted friend in your gambling plan for accountability. Remember, gambling should be fun, not addictive. Mindset and health matter most.

There's nothing wrong gambling alone literally it could be that you are the type of person that don't like associating with many persons when gambling and it's good because the ambient will be quiet that you can be able to concentrate and reason fine under a calm setting which can have a positive influence on your choice of  prediction. What should be a worry to you is your awareness about your health status to have knowledge if you are a hypertensive patient or any related health issues that doesn't need you to be of anxiety, overexcited or any form of emotional expression that can trigger the situation.

Health truly is wealth but wealth is not health because there are wealthy people with the money but are still suffering from certain chronic diseases despite their money it could not get them cure because the sickness has reached it worst stage so be you a gambler or not it's advisable to always for for routine check-up on our health while we chase after the bag too.

Thank you all for the input, just remember health is everything its important than money so if you feel that you are not feeling well while gambling, just take a break consult your doctor, and see if you are still fit to gamble, we become alive when we gamble all our emotions are alive, we are in a roller coaster ride, we feel excited, guilty, angry, stress and happy with all the emotions playing, we have to make sure that what we felt the most is enjoyment, in the first place casinos is a place for entertainment so we should treat it that way.
I'm locking this thread and hopefully with this thread we realize that health is really our wealth not what we won in the casinos.
