I'm just asking this question as I look back years ago when I was in the height of my gambling addiction. So perhaps I might also ask the community about it and see how it goes if we are the same or maybe those who might fall into addiction might have experience it already.
"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?
My biggest recent gambling loss was on slots. I didn't bet huge amounts on roulette or betting, I deposited about $300 and hoped to increase it a little, as some lucky guys do. I spun the slots and had continuous losses, and then I reduced the bet. And the most annoying thing is that at that moment I got a multiplier. Inspired by this, I increased the bet and again began to lose over and over again. As a result, when there were a few dozen dollars left, I placed huge bets until I zeroed out the deposit.
