Gambiling effects on our Mood

[Fortify]

Winning in gambling will make your mood happy just as we get some rewards and we feel happy.  These feelings are so great and we feel so energic and positive.
However, once we start to lose in gambling, we slowly move towards the sadness phase. If the loss continues and we keep on losing the money, eventually it can lead to depression.

Yes, I understand that depression is a very severe stage and it won't come at once if you are a new gambler but if you are not a responsible gambler, it is very easy for the gambler to lose his emotions and become depressed in life. Focus on other entertainment other than gambling for some time can be helpful in relaxing our mind and regrouping again to come back strongly in gambling with a strong emotion.

That infographic is the perfect representation of how gambling will trap people who are inexperienced and unaware of the tricks that betting can play on your brain. At the outset a casino is trying to make you super happy, it's in their interest that you win a bunch of times, even though they are slowly clawing away at your wallet. They'll even give you free money as a welcome bonus, so even when you're losing - "it's not your money" that was being lost. They hope that you spike a few high wins, which is built into every game, because the mind has this wonderful trick of flooding your brain with happy chemicals when you win, which will cause a very pleasurable memory association to betting, while disregarding all the slow losses as insignificant.

I think it's unethical and dramatic for something you know will happen and you choose to be surprised. You are fully aware that gambling is risky and when you put money, it's either you get something or you lose it. If you win, there should be for a call for happiness but when you lose and then you becomes sad and moody, then you just wish to be like that because you are fully aware that you can lose and you can make it hit most often, you lose.

Why would you be depressed and think gambling is the next line of thing to start? If you have money I lose fine, but you will only put your self in severe pain when you lose money. If you depressed, try another outdoor activity and if you can't do that, talk to people and engage them, not gambling.

Its the part of the trap and if you wont really be that making yourself that be careful then you would really be that prone into possible more loses and this is something
that you should really be that making yourself having that control and moderation on everything on which we know that when it comes into this aspect then it would really be
that totally a disaster if  you would really be that making yourself that chasing up loses just because you cant just accept that you've been losing too much.
It would really be that normal that there would really be those common reactions because we are just humans and we do really just that hate up on losing money.

To be honest I can count the number of times I’ve felt sad after gambling and this was because I went on to gamble with an amount that was more than I could afford at that point in time mostly because I thought it was a sure game.

Those emotions mentioned in the op are as a result of poor management (like what happened to me the few times I went beyond my limit) - if a gambler truly goes to his/her account to gamble for fun then the risk of them being affected by those emotions will be minimized.

One of the things that contributes to you been in very sad mood is when you expectations are high, and you don't win then throughout that they your mood will be affected, you know their are periods that you will need money and your hopes are placed on the game you want to play, you will want to be positive as possible and even with that positivity you will still lose winning happens when you don't even expect it but the once you are expecting you will make money from are the ones you won't even win.  Be careful with the amount used when placing bet because when you lose those amounts you will feel very bad and when ever you remember the fact that you lost a huge amount of money to bet.

Just like crypto bet what you can afford to lose, because any day you allow your self to be tempted and you over your budget and you lose then you will actually feel the lose very well compare to other days and you would have even prefer to actually spend to money to eat than to have lost it, their a lot of things attached to gambling that you need to understand if you want to be at peace with gambling, taking risk is good but their should be a limit to the kinds of risk you will take.

The more you try to win the more you will fail.

Just think of it this way. You come to gamble for fun. You have clear mind, you're relaxed, you work well under pressure because of that. If you lose you focus on something else until the next session.

You come to gamble because you're an addict. You feel the pressure of previous losses. You're scared because you know you can't go over your budget. You probably told someone that you will not gamble and feel scared they might find out. You can't let go, you gamble even when tired which leads to more losses and more frustration.
It's a downward spiral.

[salad daging]

The more you try to win the more you will fail.

I agree with this because in the end, the more you try to keep winning in gambling, the more you have to be prepared to accept failure because this is like a certainty that is difficult to change.

Indeed, in this case gambling, we certainly expect a fortune to get a win but in the end if we are too focused on winning, it is certain that we lose the game because our focus which initially enjoyed gambling turned into ambition which actually made you do some ways that could actually be said to be rushed just because of the ambition to get a win. With this ambition, you will actually be troubled in maintaining your self-control in gambling and not paying attention to any conditions considering that the focus is only on winning and when you get a loss, it will not be a satisfaction and do it again and again because the ambition and emotions of gambling have entered you in the end which makes the loss even greater in the end.

If you depressed, try another outdoor activity and if you can't do that, talk to people and engage them, not gambling.

It's actually funny kind of to imagine that someone will be depressed and see gambling as an option or solution to his problem. I don't really think in my wildest thinking that gambling could resolve any depression. I sincerely can't result to gambling even if it is seen as a thing of fun. It can't be a way to unwind my already depressed self. That will be compounding more issues to my existing ones. What I will do is to take a walk, go to the gym and pray to God for his guidance. I will also take out quality time to watch motivational true life stories, read books and engage in long conversations with friends and family.

Gambling is in every stage and its start from being a careful gambler to one who is ready to take high risks without considering the outcome. There is an anthem that every gambler should know by now and that is that the outcome is either to win or lose. And because of that knowledge no matter the outcome it shouldn't change our emotions. Because it won't change the fact that we win or we lose. Meanwhile, we can't control our mood in gambling, so we should keep our emotions and facial expression in  check so i wont affect others around us.

The more you try to win the more you will fail.

The more you try to force the wining and dont know when to quit. Then your hypothesis can be proven to be correct. Sometimes the opposite is results in some cases. Most persons get lucky when they try to chase wins.

Gambling does effects on our mood but the purpose of it was the effect was in positive way. But it is also nothing disagreeable things that excessive can effect on our mood on the bad way like when we do the excessive gambling it will be cause of our depression instead of giving us enjoyment. But I will also say that if we follow the gambling rules then it might not be cause of our depression at it all.

Focus on other entertainment other than gambling for some time can be helpful in relaxing our mind and regrouping again to come back strongly in gambling with a strong emotion.

You have a point because in gambling many things are involved with you mood can be determined based on your winnings or losses, but one thing we need to focus on most is having a way that we can reduce the chances of getting depressed if you lose a game. You have the idea of choosing another source of entertainment, which is also a good one, but at the same time, gambling also influences many other negative behaviours. You will take anything as long as it is related to the game as ambling,  although that usually affects those that are too deep into gambling. 
 
But the solution I have now that I normally use when I lose a game in order not to get depressed on the money I lost is to keep friends that are so funny so that they will accompany you and make you laugh to the extent that you will forget about the loss, which I think is the best solution in some of the solutions of being depressed about gambling lost.

The atmosphere of the day like this will always happen to anyone, especially those who are still beginners and hope to win in one gamble.
First of all there may be a win to be obtained, and it is exciting to keep placing bets or placing Max Bet for more profits.

But online gambling will play its system, playing algorithms that have been set up in such a way as to affect the gambler's psychology.
They will be in a position when the defeat continues to occur without any commensurate return. Want to continue, but capital is running low.

But maybe when in the last seconds or when they have made a re-deposit, there will be a win obtained, it is a big win but if in total it is not worth the amount of money that has been spent, but they already feel happy and want to pass it on. In a phase like this it is the most terrible and will make a person become a gambling addict without having any control at all.



I don't gamble to get rich from gambling, just an entertainment with minimal capital and don't expect a big win, If a win happens it's just a bonus for the fun to get.

Gambling plays a big role in our mood in an intense way. That is why many people unconsciously seek for gambling, because they want to have their mood directly impacted by the adrenaline gambling proportionates. They want to feel excited and thrilled, because it's a pleasant emotion for many people, although there are some people who are aversive to sensations of risk, especially women, and that is another reason why there are more male gamblers than women.

Anyway, gamblers have to be careful, because seeking for a determined mood can be addicting, while at same time the expected mood is not assured to be achieved by the gambler, as regrets and pain inevitably come after a severe loss, and then their mood won't be changed on the way they were expecting for at first point.

But I will also say that if we follow the gambling rules then it might not be cause of our depression at it all.

Whatever will lead to depression should be avoided because depression can lead to death. It is like a slow poison and this is why one should gamble responsible and quite the game when you have exhausted the amount that you can afford to lose, instead of taking more risk to see if to u can recover your losses.

In gambling loses are inevitable and that is why if you are to limit your losses and don't chase your losses so that you can gamble and live a healthy life without any challenge of your peace and rest of mind. Only people that feels gambling is a means of income that will face depression if they don't realize quick that they are wrong with their orientation on gambling.

I mean I don’t understand why people gamble if it affects their moods so damn negatively. I mean for me it certainly affects my mood, but not to the point where it’s extremely problematic. I only bet enough most times where it gets me excited, or puts more excitement in to a game that otherwise really wouldn’t have much for me
Personally.

From the whole thing, what I always notice about gambling is that if you expect too much from it, you will definitely end up spending too much instead, and the too much you spend without getting any positive results will lead the person down to depression as their high expectations that made them invest too much time and money in gambling have turned out to be just imagination.

It depends on your motive for gambling some people gamble to make money while some gamble for fun, they are not really after the money. For those that gamble for the money it is easier for them to get sad when they are losing money and these are the only set of people that may get depressed after losing a bet while those who gamble for fun are not really bothered about anything.

Gambling is not supposed to be taken too seriously because of it’s uncertainty, nothing is guaranteed and it has a 50/50 chance of success. Involving one’s emotions to gambling is a very terrible idea, it will always lead to bad decisions and can also lead to addiction. Another important tip is to always gamble money you can afford to lose so you don’t feel bad when you lose.

with that statement I agree and of course spending a lot of money on gambling is not good, that's why we should not hope too much for gambling because it will only allow us to spend money that exceeds our ability, also why will it definitely only spend a lot of money because the defeat that will occur more often is what will be experienced, not often getting victory, then the feeling that will arise when hoping too much for gambling is annoyance or even a desire for revenge when it ends in defeat.
that's the importance of considering gambling as just entertainment, so that there is no disappointment from the final result of the gambling that is done. with the many cases that have occurred, I think it's because they really hope too much for gambling, thinking that gambling can give them a definite victory, while in reality it's not like that.

Well, you are right, but then, just as you tried to mention but didnt go deep in your explanation, depression is not something that comes easy, it's common amongst gamblers today but it's not a stage a gambler gets to overnight , some a person to enter into a depressed phase in their life as a result of gambling loses, such one must either have been gambling for years and possibly sat down one day to estimate the total amount of money he or she has lost to gambling, and he or she realized it's a huge sum of money that is capable of changing his or her life situation at that very moment, such gambler can become depressed then, and this type of depression is hard to come out from except on really serious intervention.

Meanwhile on the other hand, some one can lose money he or she never did plan to lose, and or can't afford to lose, sadness about the loss can lead such a person into becoming depressed, but this type of depression is easy to overcome, since it can only last for a short period of time because as soon as the gambler learns and decides to forget the loss and move on, that depression will immediately disappear, unlike the first example I gave where the gambler will have to live with that regret all his life, anytime he tries to move on and remembers how he has wasted money and opportunities in the past which has resulted to the hard life he or she is living today, he or she becomes depressed again.

Mood swings when we are negatively effected by the results of our gambling. It it normal. But how we take care of them is up to us.
I think most gamblers will experience the same thing but how they handle it is where it goes differently. We cannot let our emotions get the better of us and the only way to prevent this from happening is by accepting that we are going to lose in the long run.
These is where a plan must be projected because what will happen next is not in our hands especially in casino games where we are relying on the algorithm that will be provided for us.

It's not really mood swings which is different from stress or depression that we are talking and this is what I am trying to say cause now we have exposure to lot of information that clogs up our mind and it's only a medical practitioner can figure out not from Google results.

Experiencing disappointment after losing is very normal but how long we carry that it's in our hands, we can sleep it through then it's okay but if we let that thing keep growing up then overtime it will lead to lot of complications and one of them is depression.

Oh okay, now I understand. That's if we let it grow to that point.

We must learn how to let go and accept that we are going to lose against the house. That's how the system was made and the only thing to avoid depression is to suck it up and learn from the experience.
I have lost a lot but I have never been to a point where I would say I am depressed. Sure, I get frustrated by the thought of unfairness but I always tell myself that it is how gambling works and I must accept that.
After a day or two I will try to forget about it. Play like I am in a new game and just forget about the losses that happened because we cannot live with the past or else it's going to wreck us.

When playing gambling, it is not possible to have no emotion involved; of course, that depends on how we handle it. Whether you win or lose, you will feel emotions in a situation like this. And often, when we lose in a row, the response of our emotions comes in, which is not good, which often results in not being good.

Though it's right when we play in any casino online that we should accept that we will lose, and that's really the good thing to do, unlike when you don't expect it but you expect a high winner, which is also not good.
