Self discipline and good money management should really be prioritize when we do gamble.Losing is inevitable and stress/frustration would always be tied up with it.
The important thing here is that you wont able to spend all the money that you intended for your living or shall we say already budgeted for food,shelter,emergency purposes, health etc.
Spending all that you've got won't happen if from the very beginning you have alloted a specific amount as you gamble. This might be a very small move but it can save other gamblers from being broke and can avoid the scenario of what did happened to op.
If you do come to a point on spending these funds then be ready on what would be the consequences ahead.
Well yeah, accept the fact that you've committed a mistake and you just have to take full responsibility and learn from it.
