As for me, when I have one of those days that I have a big loss, it's more on a mental trauma to me. I can't function as normal, I went into depression mode, can't get out of my bed and go to work and will just call my boss that I'm sick. And this might take to 3 days or even a whole week. And of course, the physical effect as well, I can't eat and so I lose a lot of weight.
How about you guys? Did you experience this when you gamble a lot?
The fact is that when a large amount is used in gambling, an amount that you are not ready to lose and if the game ends up with an outcome that you never planned for, you will definitely feel bad about it. There are always consequences to playing with an amount that you can afford to lose. Sometimes you may be lucky to escape it, but if the outcome of the games turns out the other way round, one will end up being emotional. Gambling is risky, and when a risk is taken and a gambler is not lucky, it may lead to depression.
The truth is that if a larger amount is used in gambling and the outcome is a loss, there is nothing one can do about one's emotions. By seizing it, you must definitely go through the pain; that is why it is advisable to gamble with what you can afford. Emotions are static when the right amount is not being used for gambling; you must go through it.
