How did you react at people around you when you lose in gambling?

[Achalugo BTC]

I completely agree with your point. Whatever your situation is you should anger towards other especially when it comes to gambling. Directing anger towards other isn't justified. Well many feel frustrated when they loss but those who know how to manage it are real Gambler. Self control and emotional discipline are essential in gambling and everyday life as well. Losing control for gambling can hard your reputation and relationship and it lead to regret that can't be undone whatever you do

On point, being able to control your emotions or being in charge of it, can help you to know how to tackle it when matter arises because being in control help you to prevent whatever thing that will lead you into making decisions that will hurt the other due to anger, which can affect your relationship with them, that  is why they said self control or self discipline, its very important in people lives, both in gambling and outside gambling as well.

Yesterday I was having some time with one of my very good child hood friends so we both had fun together at one joint close to his area after much conversation he was able to disclose some of his betting slips that he lost so much money up to like $800, though he wasn't that happy but as my guy I was just trying to cool him off and to make he see reasons why he should let it slide and shouldn't be disturbed by it.

However, after we are both done I decided to walk him to his house reaching there one of his son ran to was him to welcome him as usual but I was shock the way he reacted to his son, he just shouted at him and order him to go inside. That was very rude of him so to speak but am pretty sure his actions was as a result of his lost.

I can understand how significant lost in gambling can making one to start reacting rude to people around them, what about you how did you react to people around you when you lost money in gamble?

I can't react calmly to defeats if something has previously angered me. Let me explain. The thing is, I've been training myself to exercise self-control for a long time now, and I'm able to react impartially to external stimuli, including a bad gambling day or disappointing betting results.
But! If I've previously been irritated by something, like being flooded by the neighbors upstairs because of a burst pipe, or if a bank has stolen money for a subscription I didn't sign up for, then I'm already out of control. And so sometimes I avoid playing at the casino, knowing I won't be able to maintain my emotional self-control.

[Itz-prisigold]

I've noted that when someone suffers a gambling loss, the money is not the only thing that is lost,  when someone hits a big loss it often shows up emotionally first.  Examples include irritability, silence, anger or snapping at innocent people.  This typically represents a sign that the loss is worse than losing money.

In my opinion, this is one of the most dangerous side effects of gambling.  The losses create home frustration, work frustration, and relationship problems. Even when someone is trying to not express the losses,  the closest people in their life know that there is something deep that is bothering them. If that deep loss is not vented, then it creates huge problems for those people that had nothing to do with the bet.

That is also why I believe learning how to emotionally detaching from gambling outcomes is vital in your money management, If the loss of money changes how you treat others it is more than just entertainment,  that is a signal to take a step back and reassess the situation.  If you do not,  the losses associated with gambling can really create problems in your life.

[Ronsbit]

It depends really. The thing with losses is that if its a big enough loss, it stays in your mind and if not careful, it could lead to a transfer of aggression. People deal with losses differently. What I've done for my most recent losses in the last month is that, I just went to watch movies to take my mind of the losses as they're still fresh. The pain of loss usually get better as time goes. Eventually, you won't feel too much pain.

Yes thats true, as the reactions to losses sometimes are in proportionate to the amount lost. A man, who lose huge amount of money they had used to gamble with the mindset of winning can be mad at the end if they lost the game because that was the main reason they had bet such a large amount of money, and for that reason, some of them with anger issues react to anybody that comes in contact with them most especially their families. What I do is to play my favourite tracks and vibe to them while I just relax and get engaged with other activities as it goes on. This helps me get distracted from the loss and be able to get me up and doing.

One thing I will say is that I hope you can maintain that minimal approach my friend, I am also now struggling to consistently bet with small amounts (although sometimes I lose control:D), but it is true that the only way for us to avoid emotions and anger is just to bet with a little money like you did, regarding the person described by the OP I think it is very appropriate to say that gambling is not for him, gambling is not for people who are afraid of losing money.

We should only gamble with our discretionary and even with the discretionary we should also ensure to gamble with some cent of it and not all because if someone should lose all their discretionary in gambling, even though it is what they can afford to lose they will still feel it and it will surely make them to be hostile after losing. One thing I have observed is that no matter the amount we lose In gambling we will still be mad somehow but using a little amount will minimize our reaction.

Yes, the point is to gamble with the amount of money you can afford to lose, whatever the amount is, the point is that you don't mind losing.
In my opinion to be able to achieve this approach, a gambler must prioritize awareness of the risks in gambling instead of focusing too much on the chances of winning, because in most cases I see gamblers who are too willing to take big risks are those who are too confident in winning, even though in the end the results are still unpredictable.

I concur with what has been stated here. It is only natural that we can lose in gambling but how we carry ourselves around others is determined by our thoughts and how much we bet. By playing only with sums of money I can afford to lose I manage to stay collected and not to demonstrate my frustration. The point is that it is important to start with the risks and not only with the possibility of winning. Emotional reactions are usually caused by overconfidence and pursuing big bets. Placing small bets and being conscious of what we lose are ways of staying calm and avoid being hostile to others around us.

Most of the people who bet big money bet with the mindset of winning but if they lose, they lose all their money which gives rise to anger or frustration. Frustration or anger makes a person irritable due to which he misbehaves with his family or close people and such behavior affects the relationship.  And if you lose $100 in gambling today, tomorrow no one will come to your door and leave $100.Every decision at work should be carefully considered. Especially when you are gambling with large sums of money, it is important to consider how much of an impact a loss will have on your life and how capable you are of overcoming that impact.

[Leahized]

I don't disclose about gambling to everyone. I think it could be much worse. Example: I gamble, no one will respect me much if they know it. No more danger will come forward. So it is better to keep the gambling secret. Otherwise, as you say, it will happen. Gambling money should not be lost too much, it will cause mental changes. Children are very happy when they see father, and father gets angry with child for no reason. Then the child's happiness is instantly lost, so attention should not be given to gambling. It is normal to lose money in gambling. So you have to accept the loss. I don't react when I lose money.

But some gamblers emotions can display at anytime when they lost big amount of money in gambling which is not good, because it will make some people to know what happened to you in gambling. Since I made up my mind to have budget on my daily gambling it hard for my siblings to know that I have lost in the gambling, because the same mood I will display when I win from gambling is the same mood I will display when I lost in the gambling, and is not making me worry of anything at home.

I don't know why some gamblers can't control their losses when they got home to meet their family. Some will display their emotions toward their children or wife for them to know what happened to them outside. There is no how they can control their mood for their family not to know what happened to them in the gambling center, which is not a good mood gamblers should display.

[ruykeri]

Those who do not gamble responsibly and who bet with lot of money and lose, their mental condition becomes worse. Then their behavioral problems arise. I witnessed such an incident that after a person lost, his friends were making fun of his loss. Later, he behaved badly with his friend and the matter went to the stage of fighting. This shows that when gambling goes beyond the purpose of entertainment, then a gambler's social, mental and family problems arise. However, if someone gambles aggressively, they should accept that they will lose. When losing becomes normal, then the mental state can be kept under control.

Every gambler wants to win, and there is nothing bad or wrong with it, but the truth is that expectations on winning while gambling should not be a priority because the tables can turn at anytime and this is more reason why it is said to be unpredictable and risky, hence gamblers are advised to gamble with what they can afford to lose.

[AmaGold70]

It can be very annoying when someone looses in gambling , more especially significant amount of money, this can spoil your day and make you feel very uncomfortable and unhappy. However, it is very wrong to transfer the anger to your family instead try and compose yourself knowing too well that gambling is a game of chance and there is no sure bet.

It's true, there isn't really a requirement about how to move forward and the reality is that if we face the same things over and over again, then we learn from it.

So, we have seen way too many people disrespected about gambling and that is why wanting to hide it is not really that complicated and should be something that would be fine. I understand how these things could be done, and there is no worry about it and I get that it is going to be common for most people to hide their gambling.

No one wishes to lose, and experiencing loss is always painful. But when it happens there is nothing we can do about it. So, it is something we must accept because we cannot change What has already occurred. But what we can change is how we react to it.

Pouring out anger on family and loved ones is not right, because they are not the cause of the loss and do not deserve to suffer because of your frustration. Loss is part of life, whether it is in relationships, opportunities, business, or personal struggles. It teaches us patience, emotional maturity and resilience.

Although, it is natural to feel hurt, angry, or disappointed, but we must learn to manage those emotions in a healthy way. Taking out our anger on our families will only create more problems, damage relationships and increases emotional pain for everyone involved.

We should make our families a source of support and comfort, not a target for our frustrations. Instead of spreading our anger, it is better to communicate our feelings carefully and calmly, take time to reflect, and find positive ways to cope.

Is always difficult a gambler to show is losing to people they always show there winning because so times if a gamblers lose and they try to share it with people they will start laughing at them or they will says you don't have future in the gambling. That is why they always hide losing and show victory in public so that they can try to convince some people to join them. And some that don't really understand how gambling is they will surly convince easily and start betting, and I know someone that give others money to bet for him so that he can win big money he didn't know tat gambling is a risk he doesn't mean you win today tomorrow you will win again sometime you most lose because not all clubs that give victory always. I don't really like playing gambling but as for me I don't like showing my losing because they will surly laugh at me, because with the people am with.

[Jody.Drummer]

I've seen a gambler reaction over loss towards the people around him leading to serious fight, because of loss provocation, we should not gamble and be frustrated or depressed, all because we can't afford winning, transferring aggression cannot help the situation, instead it may only show more bad side of us to others, which we should try to avoid if we know our kind of temperament in situations like this.

Yes, we must be able to accept defeat in gambling, realizing that we cannot force ourselves to win. Forcing ourselves to win will only make things more complicated and may lead to negative reactions such as blaming others or taking out our frustration and emotions on others for our defeat. That is a bad thing. You're right that venting aggression won't help improve the situation. Besides accepting it, there's nothing else we can do to fix the situation. Accepting defeat doesn't actually help improve the situation, but it's something we have to do.

You're making lots of sense dear, winning is not guaranteed and lots of gamble need to realise that fact therefore they should learn to gamble with their discretionary so they don't get very emotional when they lose and start overreacting, not everyone can control their emotions but those who can't shouldn't do things that would add to their frustrations.

 Funny how some gamblers refuse to eat cause they lost, and if your try to figure out why the person is reacting in such way you'll understand that it's the failure of gambling with the discretionary funds that caused it. For instance you can't use your tuition fees to gamble then lose it all and expect to react in a normal way afterwards.

If they are sufficiently aware, they will know what to avoid that could increase or potentially frustrate themselves. Such behavior is only exhibited by people who gamble without being prepared to lose the money they deposit, and periodically this can potentially cause them to bet beyond their means. Betting should be done using funds that we have available, and it should not be money intended for other purposes such as tuition, necessities, or savings. So the money used for gambling should be money that is not intended for other purposes, but even so, people who are not prepared to lose may still take risks by using money that should not be used for gambling.

To react rude to people around you when you lose a bet is not the ultimate a real gambler does not do that because it pay no good but harm, also it depends on people attitude there are some person that can lose without them telling anyone, without them telling you,you will not know why there are also some person that can lose more money in gambling they started making noise will making noise solved the problem, it can only make people to know as a foolish gambler.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Many influencers are showing outrageous reactions after losing and I believe most gambler experience that so it’s crucial to be responsible to avoid unnecessary reactions as aftermath of gambling.

I think that influencers are not even supposed to show bad reactions because they are making money from their community depending on the social platform they are using. Some social media apps like TikTok, Facebook and YouTube are rewarding influencers who creates good contents that goes viral. If they create gambling content that rewards them, they should know that it's still that means that they are earning from.

Awareness of risks is the key to staying responsible, because with awareness, we will know what decisions to make in every situation.

If you do hate on losing money then gambling isnt for you on which this is an activity that would definitely be making you lose money and if you are impulsive then it would be that causing up that even more loses once you do find yourself that reacting too much. For those who are that some sort of introvert on which at the time that they do lose then these kind or type of person do really know on how to control his emotion and reaction but deep inside oon which he do wants to bang up everything around once you do have that loses. This is why its always important that you should be only spending into the amount that you can afford to lose. This is the most important thing but tons of gamblers do really forget this very basic approach towards it. On the time or moment that you do lose  then you can easily move on because you do already expect and getting used to it.

Losing money is never been fun and thats why is normal for us human beings to have such reaction but if you are just that prepared to have those kind of outcome then it would be just that fine for you.
