Are you usually an anxious person? I wonder if being anxious makes you more susceptible to being addicted to gambling or no?

If you are always worrying, would you not be able to take risks as confidently as others? Won't you just stay in your safe zone and miss out on opportunities that could have given you bigger wins? Or maybe some people tend to forget about their anxiety from gambling because their mind gets so numb playing?

Has gambling treated your anxiety or has it made it worse?
I only feel anxious whenever I nearly win a bet especially in sport betting, that makes me overthink to the point I can throw away my device when checking the score line. I prefer to be loosing my predictions in the beginning of my bet than ending, loosing it early makes me feel like it's normal, anticipates my mood to adapt to the system of that is how it is, but I get boiled down with so much depression and anxiety whenever 1 game destroyed my slip. I can't endure that scenerio.
