I was talking about stress outside of gambling - in everyday real life. Gambling can help us to relax.
If you are stressed in real life, I suggest not playing gambling because you can increase your tension because of many things, whether winning or lose, that will not be good for your health. Instead of having fun and relaxing playing the games, you can spend more money because of something that can trigger your emotion to become bigger. But that is up to you
It helps me to reboot my brain. I forget about real life problems and have fun, the same as to watch football match at the stadium. And it doesn`t matter will i win or lose - i just rest from stress. There are different cases of solving this problem, so gambling doesn`t become a problem and the only solution.
Maybe it can reboot your brain but you can't use gambling as a stress reliever because one day, you can become more stressed, especially if you feel defeated. But as long as you can be responsible for gambling and always try to control your emotions, I think you can use gambling as a way to release stress. But try not to play too long, especially if you experience consecutive losses, because it can trigger excessive stress and the use of more money.
