take a break first and accept defeat. only when the mind is calm, then return to another gamble with a sense of calm and forget all previous defeats.
because if we as players cannot open our hearts to past defeats, of course it will have a worse impact because our emotions and psyche are still in defeat. meaning that at that time, our gambling will be more passionate to return the past defeat. when that happens not victory, precisely because of that passion we can get an even bigger defeat.

If we really want to follow the things that are been discussed in forum about gambling, no one should suffer frkm a heavy loss, it's never should happen in the first place because we said gamble responsibly and gamble with the amount of money you can lose but all these talks are been accepted on the surface of the lips, people go extra miles to bet with an amount that can send them to death and they don't care to take a second review of the magnitude of what they are about to do until it's done.
Although this may happen very rarely, there are always the same problems that occur for some people who even say they gamble responsibly.
Things like this are difficult to minimize for some people especially for those who always bring emotions into their gambling so that the control that has actually been built will slowly erode and do not even realize that they have crossed the boundaries that they have tried to build from the beginning.
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.

On a norm. A gambler isn't suppose to use his emergency money to bet, a gambler isn't supposed to use money like school fees, medical money and food money to gamble just because they think the money can be double in multiple folds. If truely it's possible to make such kind of money, the casino will dare not open one, will rather use the money to gamble and makes the money instead of waiting for another person to use their own to bet. I guess we forgot the things we discuss easily.
Accepting defeat must be realized by every gambler. Whatever the risk, we already know that in betting we can win and lose. If we lose then we must accept it. But sometimes we can't accept defeat sincerely. That's what causes us to lose our mood for a while. Looking for activities such as hanging out with friends or other activities might be good for multiplying disappointment. But when you've lost your mood because of defeat, it might also affect your emotions when hanging out. I might choose to close all activities and go to bed.
It's quite painful for players during a huge loss experience, but the thoughts shouldn't be so much to get the player Moody. As it works with choice. Although losing all that amount is painful, yet players need to understand that placing all that money in a game would cost them pains. It's not necessary to go that further to do what will put them in trouble financially.
I understand what you mean, but sometimes some gamblers become very emotional about their losses. Some even do bad things by cursing and even destroying things around them. That's excessive, but you know that such behavior exists and is experienced by gamblers. I'm sure that even though gamblers respond differently and are quite emotional when they lose, it doesn't take long for them to adjust their emotions and gamble again another time. The depression they experience will only be temporary.
Among all the points mentioned, the most important one is the sharing. When you share your loss with someone and if they give some consoling words, it automatically makes us feel relaxed. I experienced a massive loss in the early morning, and it was a Sunday. I was supposed to go to church, but I wasn't able to attend the church ceremony. My mind was filled with a number of thoughts, and by God's grace, I left the house and went outside and shared with a brother. He gave a word, money is not a big thing. It might be in one's pocket, and the next day we can see the same in someone's pocket. So, we shouldn't feel for it, take it as a learning, and God has blessed us with a life, we need to live it. This is a big part of my life, because even a small negative thought could cause a big disaster in life.
Very sightful and wholesome story you are sharing with us, I am sorry you had to experience such a loss of money to begin with, but I am glad you could find peace and a way to vent your negative feelings to someone who cares about you enough not to judge you for Lossing money to your own greed. Not all the people in this world have the grace to be able to trust such a economical blunt to others, I have a friend who comes from a relatively poor family, and if he told his mother or brothers about losing money to casinos, then he would be scolded and belittled as a loser and a gambling addict, they may even delay food to him until he got all the money back somehow.
I wish you have better luck next time you decide to gamble and hopefully you have learnt not to wager more than you can afford to lose and put yourself in a situation of distress.
I think the solution is in the first point you conveyed OP that the only thing a gambler must do after experiencing defeat is to "accept the defeat", in the sense of being responsible for the decisions they have made before and do not regret it at all. Because in my opinion, various impulsive or aggressive actions often occur because of the difficulty of accepting the fact of defeat, but maybe after that I will also add the third point from what you mentioned that when we experience defeat, it is advisable for us to go find other activities such as hanging out with friends or doing any physical activity that you like, it will really help you to be able to forget the defeat you previously experienced.

It is important we take a rest after every loss we make as gamblers. It is not good for us to go back and gamble because we want to get back our lost funds which can be seen as an attempt of chasing loses. Gambling is a financial decision and it is good we try and fixed ourselves not to fall into the attempt of gambling restlessly. We can make money from gambling once we have a good strategy and know when to leave gambling and take a break. Once we understand these things I don't think we would have that habit of gambling too much or trying to chase losses when we ought to be taking a rest.

You have an interesting experience, and it is very good that you went to church, but in modern times, few people go there. Nevertheless, sharing with someone is very relaxing, but if you do not do this and keep everything inside, then the energy remains inside us, and if you do not release it, then this will affect us morally, including severe depression may appear.Besides everything, I like the last point that the OP wrote, have you read it? It motivates me more than the other points, many can really understand this, the awareness of everything that is written there.

I don't agree that family members would want to console a gambler in huge losses, they will rather resort to blame games and suggest he would have given them such funds instead of loosing it to the casino just like that and so for me I believe I would say fellow gamblers who would understand better should be their resort, if the gambler explains to a fellow gambler about loosing an amount to the casino, they would understand better a d probably have the right words to get them consoled without really throwing blames at the gambler for loosing such amount at a time but can later constructively criticize them. 
I understand what you mean buddy, I have also felt in the situation you mean where my gambling circle of friends often do something like insulting some other gambling friends who experience defeat, it seems to have become a kind of tradition and may also apply in most gambling circles when one or some of them experience defeat, and with that so I quite agree with you that it is quite difficult to say like "I lost big today", for them it is very embarrassing and therefore they prefer not to tell anyone especially their gambling circle, but I think it should still be possible to tell one of your closest friends in your gambling circle if you do have a true friend like that, I do that too.
I understand the desire to share such a burden on the soul with a close friend. But if we are talking about telling a person about a big loss who has also faced a similar experience, what can such an action really achieve? If we look at the question pragmatically. Will it help to avoid such a thing in the future? I think not. You can also run into disapproval and even condemnation.
1. Accept the loss:
Next,
Dont chase up loses
Dont try to make some loans or borrowing money
Dont thinking up on having that breakeven
Dont think about next bets will be a win
Acceptance would really be the key but people are hardheaded and being that too emotional and thats why stopping will really be completely a hard thing to be done.
This is why this kind of business is really that profitable into its owners just because of those kind of behavior of gamblers on where they do become that impulsive.
Spending up tons of cash or fiat money just because they are really that trying to catch up something.
People will really be just that having that sense of regret at the moment that there's nothing that they could pull out into their pocket or simply they had wasted up
enough with their bank accounts or huge chunk of it, or worst have lost it all.

Socializing will make us forget easily the huge losses that we have incurred. This what I do whenever I am swimming in losses and I can't accept it easily.
While we struggle to feel the consciousness that we have when we're on that sensation of extracting that we have actually lost a lot of money.
There are ways for us to realize that we just did and accept it. But one of the best ways IMHO is to get socialized. You talk to people with several topics outside gambling and do those outdoor activities or recreationals that you'll forget what you have been up to.

Here is my recommendation for 5 things to do after a huge gambling loss.
1. Take a dump. Why not, your bankroll just did?
2. Brush your teeth. Always good advice.
3. Exercise. Get your dopamine back.
4. Go to work. You have money to earn to replace your dumb decision.
5. Seek help. If you are risking your financial future on casino games, you probably need to talk to someone.

Yeah that helps a lot especially if the person who experienced this kind of failure is willing to submit himself and forget about what happened, friend and relatives can help him to cope up just need to have alternative activities to prevent the person to think more about gambling though it's always in the person/gambler if he's serious in taking action to avoid repeating that same mistake.
Else, if the person will continue thinking about that same thing he might be tempted to re-try once he got some money to use and most of the time he will just repeat that same mistake again.
