It did a few times in my beginning.At those times I loved to gamble offline as online casinos were not that popular.A few times it happened to me to wake up in 1 Am and to go in the 24 h opened casino.This happened until one time I lost everything and quit this kind of gambling.Since then it has never happened again to me.

Gambling has been my friend on sleepless nights mostly. Not sleeping due to gambling did occurred once when I lost a huge amount of money on a single day. That day I was rage betting and lost almost every crypto I had. Though I had recovered half of what I've lost on gambling through gambling, that day was one of the most depressing one.

I don't know the difference in terms of cost of living between there and here in my country but you should be able to move on within just a few days with the amount you have a loss. The amount loss was around $81USD as of the current exchange rate and as of my estimate based on the cost of living here, it can cover a food budget for a week within a 5 person as long as it budgeted properly.
The fact that you were able to gamble such amount meaning you are ready to face the risks. It's just that you lose.
That's shouldn't be the end of the day for you and you need to stand strong. What you need to do is to find a way to earn that amount even little by little just to cover what's lost. And the best thing you should do is to talk with your family and tell the truth. Your sleepless night should be changed into normal status since I know, your family will understand you.
Of course, charge that to experience and never take that risks as I'm telling you it's difficult to be put on lockdown. Our confirmed cases here are growing every day and I hope your country will not experience the same.

<~~~~~~>Every time you decide to gamble, you also need to realize that you have a chance to lose, and if you cant control your emotions while gambling, I am sure you will spend more money to recover your losses (without realizing you can experience more losses ).
Yes, I intended to get some loss back even though is not all losses but later get deepened in my loss. As I have said, this has not happened to me before now. The compulsory self quarantine from the government made me get involved into this mess am in. I have never experienced this.

So far i havent experienced this kind of situation where i do have sleepless nights or a very stressful situation because you have used your family savings.
This is why its always important that you should not only think twice but several times on what would be the consequences if you do fucked up that certain bet and with
this you will realize that it isnt worth the risk yet chances of losing is always there.
Dont let your addiction do control you from time to time because it will just mess up your situation.

Difficulty sleeping? Never. However, I have thought long and hard about my losses though which burns everytime I think about it, but it is also a stark remainder of my mistake and helps me not repeat the same mistake more than once.
Gamblers who are addicted tend to lose sleep and focus on recovering their in some way or another leading to bigger losses in the long term based on what I have observed.

Well, people sometimes learned from their mistakes and realized they wrong. Perhaps at that time you feel greedy and want to gain more in gambling. Because actually gambling is not for making money but the interpretation of most gamblers is making money, not for the fun activity. Indeed, in this post, --you already had found the answer. Gambling of what you can afford to lose is the first rule to implement to your self because that is only self-discipline.
Be careful of this attitude that you can't sleep as a gambler because you are chasing your losses. Perhaps, this is the reason why you become addicted to gambling without knowing your self because all you know is a habit.

It depends on your goals in gambling because usually someone who bet makes more money and if one day suffers a loss in betting, it will affect the quality of sleep and very likely make him unable to sleep. But if the purpose of gambling is to change your mood so that you feel happy then you will have no trouble sleeping when you lose or win.Every time you decide to gamble, you also need to realize that you have a chance to lose, and if you cant control your emotions while gambling, I am sure you will spend more money to recover your losses (without realizing you can experience more losses ).

This is my personal experience: I am a gambler who loves gambling mostly on sports betting and have had series of experiences which some a positive and others negative but for the purpose of this thread; I am going to talk about my negative experience. Just a few days ago, the government of my country made an announcement about stay at a home policy which made me get boredom. During these few days, I have been involved actively in gambling mainly on virtual sports betting which I have lost beyond my imagination.
At first, I lost a whopping sum of #30,000 (NGN) in a local currency, I played some games and won with some good profits which I used to Carter for the family but went the next day to meet my Waterloo during which I lost the said amount. This has affected me and caused me a sleepless night because the said money wasn't for me but the entire family for upkeep during this trial moment. I am regretting my loss because the remaining members of the family aren't aware of this loss. This has not happened to me before now until this compulsory self quarantine from the government.
To my co-gamblers: these days are tempting, ensure to be more careful with your savings and "never gamble what you can't afford to lose"
