The outcome might hurt, because most of the time loneliness is felt when our mind is in a bad mood. Some enjoy being lonely, but the reality used to be different.
You gambled to improve your mood, just as some people resort to other alcohol and other things to boost their mood when they feel down. You choose to gamble because you were already used to gambling and that already was your favourite habit. Being lonely and idle is dangerous, because it puts you in a position to make bad choices and indulge in many habits not just gambling. You must as an individual understand the danger in being idle and lonely and make plans to always keep yourself occupied, or even if the loneliness is unavoidable, better activities to indulge in than habits that can harm your purse or your health.

Usually it is true. You are then more likely to be drawn into a kind of depression, for example. If you have a large group of friends or a family, you will not be triggered to gamble very quickly. Yet there are also many situations known in which men in particular have started to gamble and have put the whole house at risk. Resulting in several breakups and divorces.
Many gamblers can hide this very well. You could also say that the people in the area are quite naive and believe everything to be true. I have never really delved into the numbers of such situations, I must say.

if you feel you are heading to that kind of situation, look for other alternative activities that you think are valuable of your time. as the OP presented his scenario, he was alone waiting inside the hospital, so he thought of gambling his money. one thing that i think of that he can do, is maybe look for the gym inside the hospital. most hospitals do have that facility. or maybe bring a book that you think you can read, a book that you are longing to read but have no time to sit down. it is up to you how you will deal this situation. there will always be worthwhile activity while being alone. don't treat it as a depressing moment.

Being idle is not something good to be in such condition but taking good opportunity to gamble while being idle is a very good decision because it help whine away time doing something tangible and in a fun and pleasurable atmosphere in gambling, but we must never take it as an excuse for an addiction, we have the right to caution and discipline ourselves if we wanted to, gambling is a giver of a refreshing moment to keep us handy and busy doing something while engaged in gambling.
Isnt only on gambling but also in other things in life on which you shouldnt really tolerating on something which you do know that it does have some negative impacts.Dont make yourself that get easily drag off just because you dont want to be yourself in idle and make out some activities just to make yourself having something to do but its really true that it isnt really that bad to gamble as long you do know those important things which should really be that avoided because if not then you would definitely be finding out that it could really mess up your love.Being lonely doesnt automatically means that it would motivate you to gamble because it would be always boils down on someones interest through it because this isnt the only way on making yourself get distracted on the time that you are being lonely and there are lot more.

I happen to be an introvert right from before I started gambling, so being alone is something I'm already used to and it can never drive me into gambling.
I gamble when I choose to and it doesn't matter how lonely I feel, if I don't make up my mind to gamble, I never will, that is how much control I have over myself with gambling.
I personally think it boils down to decision, as long as the gambler is not an addict, for an addict, it might be very difficult for him or her to stay away from gambling whenever they are alone, but for some one who's not addicted, deciding not to gamble even a time when you are alone, should be enough to make you stay away from it.

There so mamy ways I quell loneliness with and gambling is far from any of them I can think of. If you decide to gamble out of loneliness then invariably you're gambling for fun while money is being lost. I don't see fun in losing my money all because I want to kill boredom. Cause the more boredom I kill the more closer you're to being poor.
For some persons like myself that takes gambling as a side business I don't see myself doing it out of loneliness, if am lonely I listen to rap music.lolz. Another issue, I'll buttress on is, let's learn to gamble with a budget we're cool to lose that at the end of the day it won't affect our financial plan already set

Does anybody have this experience or this is happening with me. Most of my gambling losses have taken place when I feel lonely.
Today one such incident have taken place. I've kept my last few weeks signature earning aside to meet some medical needs. Today my mother got hospitalised and I'm her attender. She is supposed to take a minor surgery as her vision isn't clear. She's been taken to the Operation Theatre and I was left alone in the room. If anything required the nursing staff would call me. By thos time my mind didn't think about anything. All of the sudden why don't you gamble? and I started and made 0.009BTC close to 0.01BTC and the greed didn't left me. Finally lost all my month's earning kept aside.

Got same experience with you, which when I broke up with my gf, I played online poker all day for weeks. Not only it took my money and energy, but also I wasted my precious time since one tournament can run for several hours. Go outside and contact your friend, especially the closest one to talk or meet up. Apart of your gambling issue, you are doing great thing by taking care of your mom in hospital. I hope she will be recovered asap.

I'm very sorry to hear about your loneliness OP, and especially sorry about your mothers hospitalization. I will certainly say a prayer for you and your mother. I hope that you can find some hope in the word of God, AKA The Holy Bible. I have found that through a course called Life Essentials that gambling is a form of addiction that comes from some sort of brokenness in our past. Perhaps you should go back and hash out some of what your past and what you have been through and that will help, I know it helped me, albeit I will warn you that this is a painful process but it could possibly help you? Not certainly doesn't seem like a time to gamble, especially when there are medical bills that need to be paid, etc. I hope you figure it out!

Sorry for your loss and I hope your mother gets better soon. But you made the wrong decision. It is true that idleness can lead to many things that is why it's good to be engaged. Although gambling is mainly for entertainment but it shouldn't be used as a means to fight boredom because money is involved. One can use other forms of entertainment like games and movie to to pass time but not gambling. It is also important to have a gambling plan that is backed with a budget. One must be discipline to follow the budget strictly regardless of the pressure or temptations to gamble above it. And another golden rule that every gambler must obey is; don't be greedy.
I agree with you,loneliness can make someone have so many thoughts and if you can't control yourself,you might end up falling a victim to your habits. You allow your emotions took control of you that was why,you couldn't stop playing until you lost all your funds due to indiscipline and greed. I only use funds that I can avoid to lose when gambling, so that I don't regret my actions later on. You should try to avoid been lonely so that you don't gamble away all your savings and don't chase your losses.

It happens to me not only when I am alone but because I am always that stupid to think that this time will hit it big.Usually I play half of my signatures earning in slot machines in the Play n Go provider and I play this money on this provider because compared to others this usually gives the bonus round more easily and I try to win big from it.During most of the times I get them a couple of times but days like this one or usually on Sundays when I am alone and I have an urge to gamble are the worst days as I never seem to get the bonus round no matter that I play with the minimum bet.Today right now I got mad at the game for not giving a single time the bonus round for more than 40 dollars with 0.10 bet,but I was strong enough to quit and take some money
The only good thing out of this is that the casino I play,the one in my signature makes ever bet count and I just need 15% to get to the first VIP level thanks to these plays,this is the only positive from them,which keeps me playing every week.

If lazing isn't a good thing then why is it that gambling while idle is a good decision.Try to explain a little about your opinion because in my opinion only relying on gambling is not a positive thing for our lives.
I myself like to gamble but do gambling because there is an interval after a tiring day at work and use gambling as a means of entertaining myself and relieving fatigue.

Being Lonely drives you towards Gambling....!
You are responsible for yourself, your situation will not drive you to gambling if you can control yourself. So I do not agree with your statement that being lonely drives us towards gambling, as it is all about how we deal with our loneliness.
You can find other activities, why did you choose gambling when you feel lonely?
This simple question shows that you made a mistake and you did not aware about it until you lost your money then try to blame your loneliness.
This is a usual case. Gambling house will tempt us and make us a winner only for us to come back but the result that we will get this time is not the same as what we had last time.
Firstly, I hope your mother and you eventually do better and recover completely.
In my opinion when someone gambles and their state of mind is negative, something occurs when they start winning, the sensation starts to counter the bad feelings or depression and loneliness and in order to keep feeling better they do not withdraw or stop but rather continue to gamble to perpetuate the positive feeling. We all know that it is just matter of time before the odds start to go against them.
Perhaps, it would be better just to gamble in a positive state of mind and surrounded by friends and family who would encourage you to withdraw so you can enjoy your earnings with them...

Nope, I disagree.
IMO in a gambling environment it's the one who toward you into gambling. Let's say, you have a friend who are gambling and then he get a big win. Once he got big win, sharing or tell to other people.
Because of that, you are tempted to try gambling. That's the most valuable reason.

I have lived alone for a long time now, and I absolutely love it. Fortunately for me living alone is something that I love, and I don’t really get lonely and have any sort of urges to push me towards “overdosing” on things like drugs and gambling.
Sorry to hear about your mother, I hope things get better for her. I had to care for my mother when she almost passed away and lived with her for about five months, it was very fun let me tell ya, so I can relate. Best of luck!

It's his mother's condition that makes this situation that made him feel lonely. The sad part is when you gamble the money you saved for a while from campaigns here. It took less than a day probably of losing it all. You may really conclude that it's not good to gamble when you feel down.
Sorry for your loss. If anything, you could really ask the community for help. There are definitely lots of people here who could understand the situation that you may need money. It's been done before, you just need sincerity and people will help.

Loneliness makes people do a lot of different things, good and bad, and what you did in particular, is considered bad since you've managed to lose the money that you had kept aside for something important.
I would suggest you to get yourself involved in some other activities for those times when you are alone. Playing some games, like story-mode games or p2p games which are quite engaging and addictive so that your mind takes you to these when you are lonely, instead of gambling.
I have lived alone for a long time now, and I absolutely love it. Fortunately for me living alone is something that I love, and I don’t really get lonely and have any sort of urges to push me towards “overdosing” on things like drugs and gambling.

Maybe, what you say can be a good input to our community here. However, what actually happens is not a problem when you are alone. IMO, conditions and situations are not the causative factors that cause you to experience a sizable loss. however, the problem lies with you. situations or conditions are not indicators that cause you to get lost in betting which in the end you lose a lot of money.
In fact, you find it difficult to stop the betting session that you are doing even though you have actually made a profit before. well, that's actually the problem. you are not able to limit yourself, and are absorbed in making more wins even if at first it is just to pass the time. In fact, you can do other activities after you have made some profits from the previous gambling session. many things you can do, if only just to spend your time. so in essence, when the situation changes and you experience defeat, emotions are increasingly involved in controlling your mind. and as you said, in the end you lose all your monthly income. So, this is an important lesson for you.
Being idle is not something good to be in such condition but taking good opportunity to gamble while being idle is a very good decision because it help whine away time doing something tangible and in a fun and pleasurable atmosphere in gambling, but we must never take it as an excuse for an addiction, we have the right to caution and discipline ourselves if we wanted to, gambling is a giver of a refreshing moment to keep us handy and busy doing something while engaged in gambling.
