A gambler can definitely break down after a big loss in gambling, so he should share the loss with his family members to comfort him. Moreover, family members must be able to provide adequate support to a mentally disordered gambler on how to easily stop gambling. Moreover, the issue of loss must be shared with friends because only friends can easily comfort him emotionally. Friends can take him on long drives and engage him in various recreational activities to stop him from gambling temporarily or permanently.

I agree with both of your advises, regarding family and regarding friends too. With some rare exceptions those people are indeed those we can rely on during harsh times. And losing big money through gambling is definitely one of those cases. Alone with no help from the outside it will be extremely hard to cope with a huge loss in gambling. But it's possible, even though the chances are slim.

1. Open pornhub or onlyfans, then masturbating.
2. Go to the brothel, pick the girl that you want, then fuck her.
3. Consume alcohol.
4. Drink a coffee and smoking.
5. Sitting alone on the street.

I'm sure the 5 things I mention in my post is way more realistic than what @OP mentioned above, most men doing at least one of them. Don't be too philosophical, good vibes or being positive, we all know what coping mechanism for men.

Yep maybe you're right but education should make people better, even if what you think is unrealistic “not what you're used to” doesn't mean it's wrong to be the best advice doesn't it? would you do any of it or do it?

I think you need to take a broader view, although many people would do one of the things you wrote, but it's not a good thing to suggest to others, you are gambling then acting stupid and suggesting it to others, it's worse to associate with you.

This is very important. He should even quit gambling for many months or for like a year. He should start to gamble again, but with little amount of money. The money should not be more than 1% of his weekly income. If he sees himself still addicted, he should stop gambling again.

Mostly what have observed overtime is that addiction bet addiction and when I could place how it's start it was indeed an I'll experience, just as one that's addicted to Gambling losses overtime he goes into drinking thinking about how he's lose everything and right there another addiction of drinking is birthed, so this is why it's best to take a huge break after a loss but some still go back gambling after recovering abit.

This is more like an instruction on how to bring yourself to a situation of huge losses in gambling. I don't see at all how these things will help you draw any useful conclusions to avoid such losses in the future. Well, you will forget about the loss for a while, you will create artificial conditions for yourself to distract yourself. But there will be no long-term benefit from this.

Only #1 on which i do see for it to be free on which of course this could really ease out that disappointment without spending up money and i would be lying if masturbating wont really be removing out that kind of disappointment that you are experience on which of course not all will be having the mood specially when they do get pissed.

#2. This is far more expensive than on playing gambling Grin

#3. You cant be sure that on the moment that you get drunk, you wont be going back again into the casino and playing again because you are not in good ways of thinking when you are under the influence of alcohol.
#4. This isnt a bad option on easing out stress and disappoint and also it is much cheaper.
#5. Murmuring in the corner then this wont be doing something good because not all people who do get alone and thinking up their loses, then it will really be just that worsen up the situation or the possibility that you might chase up some loses.

Loses are very common in gambling on which at the moment that you cant be able to control yourself on stopping then it will incur even more bigger losses and this is something that we dont really like to happen. This is why you should really be that careful.

In fact, this is a huge loss for a loser in gambling, it should be unacceptable to allow such a loss, but people lose even big money, and not only in gambling. It all depends on the individual, someone can decide that this is acceptable for him, and someone just can not stop and despite all the losses continues to lose the last money. I saw a guy who went to play slot machines and lost a lot of money, but he walked in torn shoes. It seems that this is an addiction...

Yeah, gambling can be highly addictive.

The positive feedback loop you get when you win is the hook. You go back to try to get that feeling again.

In reality, it makes sense to realize that gambling is mostly people paying for their addiction. Same as alcohol or other addictive substances.

But they are much more practical than OP's advice and I believe that even if people are discussing the philosophies OP mentions but no one will implement them. It's men's nature, when they are stuck they will often turn to alcohol, girls...or any other pleasure and that will help them relieve everything quickly .
Only women find these things pointless and useless, but as men , I believe any of us have tried one of these things when feeling stuck in life and the effectiveness it brings.
But you are right , this is not a long term solution but at least it will help us in the short term .

How exactly will it help? Help to distract oneself, help to dive into some other activities and emotions? Well, that could help to cope easier with losses, but it definitely won't help to prevent such situation to repeat again. And in the end it turns out that the one who faced a huge loss tries to put a band-aid on an open fracture. Will it be effective? I doubt it, because it won't change the situation radically.

Let's say if my loss equals to L and corresponding recovery time R then at the loss of 2L the recovery time would 4R, at 4L it would be 8R and so on.

It is a nice attempt to quantify a variable of human tendency. Though I have good reasons to believe that time=money but never thought of this perspective. But it could easily be interpreted superficially that you need to wait to gamble again but this is specifically true for games with positive EV.

There is no perfect calculation or theory to qualify gambling, it is what it is. If you wait to gamble more today, you might regret it, but the same you might wait tomorrow and laugh at your winnings. Again, if you wait from now till next week, you might continue to lose if care is not taken, this is why gambling is a game of luck and the bitter truth is that no one controls this luck nor knows the very time it will shine on us. So we are all trying, which is the reason why we should take it gently and responsibly and rather have our plans with quality budget, management and discipline.

Avoiding gambling after a big loss is a very important step to maintain emotional and also for us to recover from financial losses, those who chase losses continuously will only make them worse, because it is one of the ways for them to get stuck in addiction, considering gambling as entertainment and leaving it when we have reached the limit of defeat is a step to not get stuck in a bigger loss from gambling, those who experience addiction should get great support from those closest to them to overcome the addiction.

In fact, I think not only when experiencing a large-scale defeat but also with a small defeat we should be able to leave gambling by not extending the gambling session, because what often happens is extending the gambling session when experiencing defeat or loss and this is done by those who gamble with the aim of seeking profit because people like this usually will not be able to accept that they experience defeat so what they will do is chase victory or recover losses.

The correct statement, indeed usually those who are trapped do it because they gamble beyond the limit such as not knowing when to stop, for example when they have experienced defeat but they still continue their gambling again by depositing their money again into gambling.

Let me tell you that it is quite normal and perhaps the part of becoming a strong person. $15k though it is a decent amount (relative) but cheap for a life lesson. I know it still might be bothering you but now you know how to avoid and lock wins more efficiently so it is a good deal.
Thanks for sharing though it takes a great deal of courage to admit publicly your loss.

Yeah, just removing yourself from that situation as fast as possible is good.

Removes the crazy idea of trying to win back your money by gambling even more.

Thinking about going to the ATM?, bad idea. Go back home, go for a walk.

Go to a park, beach, bench, whatever public place you have, or say hi to a friend. Or just go home, alone or to your family.

Just wait. Rest. Have some sleep. Drink some water. Think about the future.

It's all good.

Everything will be OK.

When a gambler loses a lot of money by gambling, he naturally gets depressed because of that money and may make many wrong decisions at that time.

After losing a large amount of money, the gambler should be given more support at that time so that he does not make any wrong decisions. And to the gambler I would at least advise him to stay away from gambling for a few months. Although it is difficult to decide to stay away from gambling after losing a lot of money, it is something every gambler should do for their own good and for the safety of their money. However, most gamblers do not do this, instead, when they lose a large amount of money, they bet more money, only to find that they later lost the amount they gambled with. So no decision can be taken out of anger or out of one's own emotions, decisions like this will always backfire.

Avoiding gambling after a big loss is a very important step to maintain emotional and also for us to recover from financial losses, those who chase losses continuously will only make them worse, because it is one of the ways for them to get stuck in addiction, considering gambling as entertainment and leaving it when we have reached the limit of defeat is a step to not get stuck in a bigger loss from gambling, those who experience addiction should get great support from those closest to them to overcome the addiction.

My biggest loss is round $ 15 K , probably not so huge but it took a few month for me to accept it.

We all know how it feels to lose money in gambling. It is one of the worst feelings we encounter, which makes us stressed and can lead to feelings of self-guilt. But sometimes we overstretch ourselves and gamble beyond our means. I have seen people even take loans to gamble and get sucked into an endless loop of stress, anxiety, and isolation.
If you have just encountered a big loss which is making you sick to the stomach, do not worry. Here are five things you can do to find peace and divert your energy to some inspiring things:

1. Accept the loss:

I have noticed that to recover myself from the huge loss I need more time when compering it with the small failure, and, on top of everything, this time is growing with the size of loss. Let's say if my loss equals to L and corresponding recovery time R then at the loss of 2L the recovery time would 4R, at 4L it would be 8R and so on. My biggest loss is round $ 15 K , probably not so huge but it took a few month for me to accept it.

The money should not be more than 1% of his weekly income. If he sees himself still addicted, he should stop gambling again. This was how I overcame gambling addiction. He should not see gambling as a means of making money will help in stoping gambling addiction.

Actually, willpower is the biggest thing. If you do not have willpower, then you cannot get out of any addiction by doing anything. You had enough willpower, due to which you were able to overcome the addiction to gambling very easily. But yes, if someone keeps thinking about that loss after a big loss and keeps participating in one gambling game after another, then he may be addicted to gambling. He should definitely take a rest after a big loss. If necessary, he should refrain from gambling for some time and even then, if he wants to participate in gambling, he should participate in gambling with a very small amount of money just for entertainment, but I think it is better for him not to participate in gambling at that time. He should focus on religious work and play games with friends in the field for entertainment.

I think it's because they actually lack the will powers thats why its called an addiction moreover i believe only a few percentage of gamblers actually save themselves from the problems they face with gambling. Addiction is better delt with when you have other things that fills up that space and for many gambling is what keeps them driving which if you are that type then it would be definitely hard for you to keep up or stop yourself.

The real addiction of a gambler to gambling, whether physical or online, is that they will find it difficult to stop immediately; even if we say that they are winning, they will think that they will win even more while they are already winning.

Meanwhile, when they are losing, they will chase their losses, thinking that if they win, they will immediately recover all their losses. So as long as possible, when the losses are big,
just accept the loss and then move on.

Absolutely.
Actually those gamblers that focuses on winning only are the type of gamblers that gamble for profits, so it's very hard for them to accept their losses. However, when a gambler have wagered and lose, he or she is supposed to know that gamble is not a game that will provide steady winning for them. A gambler can only win when he's lucky and when you are not 100% lucky there's no amount of try or hard works that will ever make you win. So the important knowledge a gambler should have is to know that gamble is for fun and also know the specific amount that they can afford to risk.

The right fact, indeed with those who cannot accept themselves experiencing defeat because they gamble with the aim of seeking profit so they are not ready to lose so that what can happen when they experience defeat is a risky action such as chasing victory or wanting to recover losses only this allows them to lose more money because chasing victory which in fact victory itself is not certain.
Victory in gambling is indeed based on luck, it is a big possibility, some of them believe in having a strategy to be able to get victory with certainty and in my opinion that is one of their drivers to gamble blindly by ignoring the risk of loss which is actually greater than the chance of profit.

The willpower to say No to gambling is what they lack, but still, in my peripheral belief, more gamblers are not addicted than the addicted ones. This is against what you said and if more gamblers are addicted as you claimed, then you will see more irresponsible acts than we see today. Above all, let us strive to be responsible gamblers, there's nothing better than this as it helps preserve our finances and sanity as humans.

The problem is that this kind of urge is sometimes difficult to stem because after all, when gamblers have tried to be serious in a game, sometimes wanting victory is a common thing because this is indeed a form of us who want to show the nature of domination over ourselves so that sometimes we always forget about control because we focus on the victory that we keep thinking about.

I think everyone must be aware of that, it's just that when you start to play gambling, this rational thinking just seems to disappear because we are too focused on wanting to win in the end.
So by looking at this situation it is actually very easy to become a gambling player but sometimes not everyone is capable enough to think more clearly when gambling is being done which makes many people trapped in an addiction that is difficult to avoid.
