"What’s your worst loss, and how did you cope afterward? "
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?
When you lose a huge amount of money that you are not supposed to lose, you will feel that way. I understand the trauma because it also happened to me. I’ve blamed myself for the blunder, and this kind of trauma takes time to heal, but once you heal, you have learned a big lesson not to gamble with money that you can afford to lose, because you now know how it feels.
You become a better gambler because you have seen and felt the worst, and you don't want that to happen to you.
