Very rarely it was only during initial days when I was so obsessed to it as it was in moving money and wanted to make the most of it . But as times passed by and understood that it should be only taken as fun and entertainment purpose then it started to be a very good way to enjoy the game and time as well . So after that it was all good and never had difficulty in sleeping .

I like this too in the past.

But the thing here is that despite me started to gamble to have fun, there are those sleepless nights too where I hoped I did not do this, where I hoped I did not do that, something like that. Usually, it includes money but some of them are because of my friend getting upset since I always gamble with my friends in the past.

Those upsets that makes you not to sleep are thoughts that encircling around you, what if you do that maybe things will result differently. We do have lots of experienced from this field where we wanted to have different outcomes from what we have faced from the previous games that we've take.

There is nothing bad if a person expect winning from his gambling because all people play to win and to make money so if a person is thinking about getting good outcomes from gambling its not bad but don't think too much about it as it can make you hair fall or any other mental stress so try to sleep well at night and leave all on your luck as Lose and profit is about our luck.

Some people play to pass the time or do experiments. I know winning is the ultimate end goal here but...

I remember the first time I heard about "martingale". I was in high school and the idea sounded very magical to me. All I had to do was doubling my bets till I win. I thought It was impossible to lose like that. -Silly me. Grin

Of course in time I understood why it doesn't work but you know, I tried it anyway, like millions of people will do it too.

I think it is normal to think to play over again, especially if you stopped for the day because you're on a limited bankroll or you're trying to control your self. I seldom have problem sleeping maybe during the days when I was new in gambling, I learned to learn from my mistake and consider it as a lesson instead of depriving my self from sleeping thinking of what should I have done.

That's gonna be a never ending story to tell honestly ..

When it comes to gambling there's only one similarity that's guaranteed in every body who gamble.
They are mostly crying in misery at the end of the day no matter how good it was at the first shots.
Having a hard time to sleep caused by gambling a bit exaggerated to call it like that.

But yeah that's just yet another human nature to get overthinking.

Not personally, but I have lived with a few compulsive gamblers during my time and I can tell you they had a severely disrupted sleep pattern due to their addiction.

One would stay up gambling all night trying to win back his losses with increasingly risky strategies, while the other one was a sports bettor that would bet on foreign matches because of "tip-offs" he received that they were fixed. Needless to say, 9 times out of 10 the match wasn't fixed and he ended up getting rekt.

I can imagine that those that have lost a lot of money due to gambling might also have difficulties sleeping due to the worries it can cause. It does get better over time, but these people need to learn to kick the habit once and for all so they can recover.

Gambling makes you feel like insomnia only when you lost , everyone knew about it, stressful thing always ended up with the same result.
So do with the joyful thing when you won a game unexpectedly it will always ended up with the same results, a good memory that let you fall in deep sleep.

So yeah it's conditional.

it can make you sleepless also if you win big because you will consider going back again to win and win more because greediness will run your mind at most time.

Fortunately it never happened to me.

Knows the time to get some rest and stop for a while is a crucial factor here.
Thinking to play over and over again is indeed always there , control that thoughts and you'll see the better result at the end of the day include a sleep tight and wake happily.

I can't say that everytime that I gamble but definitely there are times, especially the times that I lose big time. It really hurts your health when you lose, include the frustration and regret that comes with it when you lose money, I am starting to change though, I atleast try to discipline myself and gamble as little as possible, I have found a way to alleviate the itches by downloading and playing ( They have android ) Chinese Poker and Hold'em poker, they are good for the urges though I don't get money but it really helps try them. I have been away from gambling for awhile now and it really is a good feeling because I have money to spend to other things that are worth it (Books and Food).

so at least for now as you are hurting whenever you lose big money that it is time to stop gambling so the hurting will not continue?
if we already know the consequences then why not get out of that?

If you are gambling in order to earn a living out of it then it will definitely have a psychological effect on your mind and consequently even your sleep will be distorted.
The biggest you made was to even gamble using the money that was not yours. If you don't have money or if you are planning to gamble in order to earn out of it then always ensure you totally avoid the temptation to gamble because the consequences can be far much worse than your initial situation that led you to gamble.

This is real for many gamblers out there that makes a living through online casino's and sports bet but also very risky as it can take your every asset, savings, accessories also properties when you've become really addicted to it. I've read people's story here who made gambling as a source of income but there are also who got rekt and in the end not they have sleepless night but also loss everything.

they can try but with care because the moment you losses constantly then must find that this is not your place to make a profit.
there are many place here in crypto in which there might be a profitable specially if you have capital to start like what you spent in gambling.
buy crypto to keep holding,or try to invest in gambling sites instead of betting against them witht his a chance of making money is much secure than to gamble.
like many times we've done when we are in trials of spending money to gamble sometimes winning but mostly losing so try safer than that.

Perhaps, it might fall in to two different sides depending on your gambling outcome. For example, if you are winning straight for multiple times and decided to sleep, I bet, you will have a comfortable sleep, but the opposite will happen if you are always losing, this is because you are aware that you need to win back your losses and it causes frustration if you will sleep accepting that you lose too much in a day. Well, based from my personal experience on how I handle this, I always think of what will happen in tomorrow, as long as I have a limitation in the amount of funds I bet, I am good and happy to accept no matter what the outcome of my bet is.

Good if you can learn your lesson and make sure it will not happen again in the future. It is hard to accept the loss, whether it's big to lose or small loose. We cannot do anything unless accepted and trying not to think over and over again about that loss. The loose money will not come, no matter how hard you try, you might make another lose.

I hope you already learn about controlling yourself, and don't let greediness take over your mind because chasing more winning in gambling will not give a good result for you but only get more losses. You should think about your life and your family because they are the most important thing for you now and forever.

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"

I also suffer from that kind of situation but I was to brave to tell my family about it, of course, you must accept their anger because you deserve it, but it causes me sleeplessness nights because we need money very bad back then, but it made me realize that gambling is something you must have control and don't pour everything even though it is tempting to do so.

One of the hardest part in telling your family what is the worst thing that happened to you in anything gambling or not is how are you going to face and handle their anger. Another, how are you going to overcome your fear in telling the truth? They deserve to know things about you because you're family and it is money matter. Yes you're brave because you tell them. When money or losing money is involve, it is a big issue because it is very important.

Even gambling anything that you can afford to lose isn't worth it at current moment because losing will bring you regret only and you will think that whatever lost, could have been used for your family's daily needs instead. Yes, there were sleepless nights for me while sportsbetting, but that has nothing to do with my affordability to lose my money, but rather different. I used to place my bets a day ago and then, while thinking that the match is gonna take place in early morning, I couldn't sleep and just wait for the match to start.

Agree, it's not the time to be tempted on gambling since we need to save money since lockdown and quarantine are still implemented to avoid COVID-19. If you'll gonna waste money then It'll be over for you if the ECQ extends for a longer time. Gambling can wait, practice your self-control, it might fix your behavior towards gambling.

Save and keep your money, spend it on foods. Keep safe always!

It is very likely that most gamblers are already implementing this advice, this is not the time to spend our money in luxuries, we need that money in the case things get even worse and if this means spending less money in our gambling activities for some time then it must be done, even if I like gambling from time to time there are many things that we can do to entertain ourselves that could be very cheap or even free, if we do that then we can keep most of our money and if things improve quickly and we do not need to use that money to buy supplies then you could always gamble with that money in the future.

Not all of us are here to entertain themselves, some are really professional gambler especially when they are playing a skill based games in online casinos. Besides, in times like this gamblers know their limitation since we have quarantine state all over the world, if they are not fool enough they will prioritize storing their food on fridge than risking it on gambling right? Just a quick thought, what if casinos will put a limited playing time? would it be that bad for them or their players during these times?

And if 30,000 NGN is big money for you, I also have a solution. First you should answer yourself a question: "During what period of time I could afford to lose such money?"

Possibly, no gambler would love to see him or her self loose to gambling anytime anyday if they put into consideration how they manage to earn their funds. In my case, greediness was all over shadowed me.

Quote

In short, the money is gone. Period. Stop thinking about that.
<~snip~>

Absolutely gone, I have learned my lessons and will ensure never to repeat same again in life. As I said earlier, chasing after my lost will endanger my life and that of my family, so, I have let go my losses.

Great decision, and yet it is unclear, to me at least, were 30,000 NGN big money for you? I mean, if it were more than 10% of your monthly income, that's significant. But if it were less than 5%, there's not much to worry about, in my opinion. I'm not saying that you can continue with gambling and losing such amounts again and again, but you should definitely stop regretting the loss, and move on.

Anyways, I'm glad you've learned your lesson. Many gamblers, myself included, were in your place at some point, and we have drawn our conclusions, and we are not going to repeat it in the future.
