What do you do to relieve your anger when you lose at gambling?

[Pi-network314159]

Yesterday I just lost several hundred dollars in one of the slot games: Mahjong Ways. I was stressed, I immediately went to the club to meet my friend for a drink and relieve stress there, I'm curious how you manage your anger when you lose gambling? does anyone do like me?

Drinking alcohol to relieve stress after losing is not in my calendar. Instead each time I lose much and don't feel happy about myself, I just go to Facebook or TikTok to watch some funny video to keep me busy. The entertainment I get from those videos will definitely cool me off, but if I drink alcohol, it will even increase the level ofy anger. I just believe that we all have what we do that satisfy our emotion after we lose, but it's a no for me to drink alcohol to cool my stress and anger.

You should first not be angry when you loose in gambling, and one major reason is that if that is your response to loosing in gambling, you will be angry a lot because loosing is more regular in gambling than winning, and if you are angry a lot, your relationship with others will surely be affected.

You should seek a better way to handle and control your emotions when you loose in gambling, not anger.

You are right, I have seen and have also heard about situations where a man is always having issues with his wife because of how angry and emotional he gets anytime he faces a huge lose in gambling, based on the stories I have heard, some men even get violent with their wife after they lose their bet and that kind of attitude doesn't keep peace in the family relationship. Such attitude can extend to other close relationship that the person has because when the person can not control themselves, they will definitely explode inside and outside their home.

It use to surprise me when people do mention that they take some beer to easy aware the anger and anxiety in them over any unwanted situations, because this will wipe off after some few hours of taking alcohol and we get back to the root of it again after being tipsy, growing drunk does not solve the problem created, it can even worsen it when we do nothing about it, of I were you, all I could do is to quickly source for an alternative means of getting recovered by doing extra jobs to source for money.

That's how some people behave. They thought getting drunk solved it all to forget the loss they incurred in gambling. They don't know that the next day the drunkenness would clear from their eyes and the memory of losses they incurred will be remembered, to make them feel bad about it.

I will point out that being drunk or hanging out with friends doesn't make the memory of losses in gambling disappear. From time to time, it will remember(our losses) no matter how we try to get over them.

I used to feel frustrated when I lose in gambling, then I used to chase loses, what I used to do was take a break from anything that is related to gambling, when I clear my head then I come back and try again. That was then, I never get frustrated now when I lose, i take it as one of those things to expect when you gamble, I shake it off and move on. What is helping me not to be angry when I lose is that I've learnt to use very small amount from my income to gamble, I'm no longer in it to get rich. I'm happy when I win and I'm ok when I lose, I try not to take gambling as a big deal, it is where I pass my time.

I think the way you distract yourself after experiencing defeat is very good, you are able to manage your emotions. Many people deal with it in inappropriate ways, such as using drugs or drinking alcohol,  that only adds to the stress. In addition to spending more money after losing at gambling, drinking alcohol does not really relieve stress, instead, it makes your mind even more chaotic and your emotions even more uncontrollable. While losing at gambling does trigger frustration, seeking refuge in non destructive forms of entertainment is a far healthier approach. Watching funny videos like you did, playing games, or taking a short walk these are better ways to cope.

Understanding is the key, and when yiu Understand gambling better you wouldn't want to develop emotion in gambling which will be affecting relationship with other people.  Lose in gambling is contact and it is important for one to understand this and try to mange it, but when one is not aware about controlling emotions in gambling,  it becomes a problem. I think the problem people do have in gambling is due to no good understanding because if the understanding is their one can be able to handle all these gambling challenges, that is why it is important to make understanding the number one priority in gambling.

I know sometimes it can be annoying that you require the win and then life happens and it turned out to be a loss, you need not to worry about anything especially when you're gambling with what you can afford to lose. When I lose I take it upon myself that it's meant to be that way and I'll strive to do better and make sure I surpass that but then to some extent this attitude seems like you're chasing your loses , which is why I don't get worked up when I lose cause I really have nothing to lose.

For me, I usually just put on some music. Once I am listening to something I like, it takes my mind off the loss and the whole annoyance instantly..  I don’t really stay angry for long anyway, because I only use money I am actually comfortable losing.
So even if I take a loss, it does not mess with me too deep. I just remind myself it is part of the game, cool off with some songs, and before I know it, I am back to normal..

Finding music as a means of distraction as a result of losing someone may be a good method to cope up with the feelings of negativity. When we embrace the fact that we are going to lose, then it will become easier to contain our emotions. Music allows one to get lonely and revitalise our minds to get out of anger or disappointment. Lossing money may be frustrating but one should not allow it to influence his attitude towards the experience in totality.

How about banging the head over something like on keyboard?

I just accept that I lost and it can be stressful in a way because lose is a lose, there is no second thought about it but I was expecting a loss all the way so even if I lost it's still okay for me and I won't be losing hundreds of dollars on a single night unless I can afford that loss and replicate the salm mind at that time too.

If I were between 18 and 25 years old, I would probably do the same. But I am much older now, and given my life experience, I have developed other interests and left my bad habits far behind. In fact, I gave them up completely around the time I started my family. People with families generally don't go to clubs anymore because they simply don't have the time, and they lose interest in it over time. But you can meet up with friends and tell them about your problems and upsets, such as a big loss or a failed investment. It's probably a good idea to share your thoughts with someone during times of high stress; it helps. But drinking alcohol isn't necessary. It may relax you in the moment, but then it can have the opposite effect as a depressant, especially if you drink too much.

Your first statement alone is enough for me; even if we are playing both for fun and profit, as long as the player is still using an amount within the limit, there should be no big deal if they lose or win.

The problem comes when you don't understand the principle of gambling and think that you control it and stake an amount that will take you time to recover from due to a high expectation of profit.

This is just the problem with some gamblers; they expect too much from their games, and when they are disappointed, they feel angered and frustrated because of the funds they have put into playing the game, and in so doing, they want to recover their losses. While doing that, addiction gradually finds its way into their gambling lifestyle, and it becomes a part of them that they can hardly stop so quickly.

You know in gambling you are more likely with greater chances of losing than you are with winning your bets. Will you at each time you lose your bet you will run to the club to have drinks as remedy to be  relieved of the resentment of losing?

You will make a good drunk and translate to a gambling addict cause the two vices addiction and drunkenness conveniently get along. I'm not entertaining you with words, gambling with what you can lose and be calm without going for a drink is what you must do to have a healthy gambling habit.

Music is your remedy for it; to be able to calm you down, you will be a lover of music. I have read about a lot of people with different ways in which they try to cure their anger each time they lose. I don't see many options in relation to what's on the OP, where someone will have to use clubbing or any other gathering that could lead to alcohol consumption as a means of letting go.

There is a chance drinking after losing in gambling may make things even worse, however, we can't generalize it, because it may work for some gamblers without any negative effects implied. Personally, to drink helps me reducing stress, so it would be definitely a good idea. However, there are indeed a portion of gamblers who will become more impulsive after drinking in a way it will work as a boost for them to chase losses, what is never a good idea.

An alternative to drinking is to go to the gym. To practice physical exercises and to lift some weights is definitely a good idea to discharge adrenaline and to forget problems for a while, as all your attention and energy will be on your body itself.

What do you do to relieve your anger when you lose at gambling?

Depends on the level of anger lol!
But honestly, I rarely get angry when I gamble, because the money I spend is what I considered a loss just even before I start gambling. The only time you'll get furious is when you lose at gambling, when you expect to win but end up the other way around. This shows the importance of financial management and self-discipline when it comes to gambling. When you can't control yourself, that is when you're starting to get angry and lose your composure.
Well, if things like this happen, then you should just drink a beer and forget about it, move on, and learn from those mistakes.  Next time, you'll be more responsible, so you can avoid getting stressed and angry when you lose.

That is right but people tend not to think of that and still play and return to gambling. They don't think about the big losses they can get which can make you angry and lose control. If you run your anger by going to the club to have drinks to release it, that is not a good solution. You can have two addictions, gambling and drinking at the same time. Your minds will find it difficult to stop you from those things and in the end, you will ruin your lives. Gambling with the amount you can afford is the solution to avoid losing big but you need discipline so you do not lose control.

When it gets more tougher as we play and have an unexpected result from gambling, we may be pushed to feel remorse but shouldn't be in anger or furious for any reason, as gambling is for fun and we are getting being entertained while doing so, we shouldn't be rendered into unpleasant situations whenever our expectations in it were not meant, everything should turned having more fun to us instead.

I never relieve stress from gambling like that. I am used to gambling alone, in my room with my phone. Sometimes it can be quite stressful if I experience a few consecutive losses; I usually go out and eat. I don’t really like gathering with many people. Having a few friends is enough for me, but I won’t share my gambling experiences with anyone. I do it alone, enjoy it alone, and bear the risks alone.

Well, everyone has its own unique ways of relieving their stress when they loss their money in gambling, there are some people that will do the same thing as yours, and there are some other people that will engage themselves in activities that will distracts their minds of thinking towards chasing their loss.
And, this set of people that are capable of withdrawing themselves or take their leave when they have loss it all, they will find it easy to gamble within their budget and can't be affected by the consequences of irresponsible gambling.
