Yes, it's a rather common behavior among gamblers and not only gambling addicts I think. When you're on a winning streak, it's like you're on top of the world, you think you've masterized the game and nothing can resist you and you're about to become rich because you think it's "your turn" to get lucky. But on losing days, it's a different story, you feel the exact opposite, you feel depressed, you think you're a loser, you're not able to do anything good and you're definitely unlucky.

That's not something new, but in all we do, men just need to learn how to control themselves when ever they lose money. Allowing yourself to be emotionally trapped and having feelings about how you view things change is really not a cool thing to do.
This is why we are always advised to leave gambling when we are not in a good mode, and somehow one can train himself so that such a situation won't be able to affect their emotional feelings deeply, as they will just have to consider both the winnings and the losses as one of those things and just move on with other activities of life without allowing even the next person to notice it and talk more about their suffering as a result of your gambling result.

Yes, I used to experience this when I was still gambling. If I lose, there is a desire to continue gambling to recover from the loss. If I win, I want to get a bigger win. I had a lot of problems at that time because I couldn't control my emotions and ego well. And I agree with you @OP, that we get angry easily over simple things. However, I realized that I had to change and stop everything by learning the necessary things. I have now started to change, and it has really changed me. Promotions do not easily tempt me, and I only gamble if I really want to gamble.
You just gotta gamble and leave emotion out of it. No matter what happens when you start a session or end a session, you haven't won or lost until you stop for the day. I think its hard to keep emotion out of it because gambling is all about the thrill(emotion). If you can train your brain to not get emotional, you might stop yourself from making wreckless bets and save yourself lots of money.
There's no way you'll lose money and not feel any type of emotion be it happy or sad/angry.
Sometimes it's not just about the money you lost, but the fact that you lost. Even if someone else staked with his own money for you to play you'll still feel sad when you lose. The idea that you had an opportunity to win money but didn't is saddening.
So what he should learn is not how to be emotionless because that's not possible.
In my opinion I feel we should learn how to keep our emotions in check, how to control our emotions. We are sad or angry doesn't mean we'll take it out on others who have absolutely no role to play in the way we feel.
As gamblers we all feel a certain way after a losing or winning. We have to try to make sure our attitude doesn't affect those around us negativity. We have to always keep ourselves in check at all times. This is a way to keep us from becoming gambling addicts.

I guess everyone experience behavioral changes when gambling. Gamblers have a lot of emotions, it showed when they're happy and winning, same when they're sad and losing. So expect that when you see a gambler at loss, never try to annoy him, otherwise you will receive your reward after. But make fun for those who are gambling in profits, because surely they will appreciate your jokes even more.However, for those who answer no, I think they are still starting to gamble and still learning to appreciate gambling. But when they get used to gamble in most of their life, which means that losing will be a lot, tell me then if they are still unaffected with gambling most especially if they are in the losing end.
I used to experience mood swings while gambling sometimes, and 8n most cases, what I have observed to be the cause of that is gambling along my feelings, in the sense that, sometimes when I am tired, instead of just going to have some rest, I still gamble trying to at least achieve some winning that can be a relief for my anxiety and my feelings, but still on still I end up feeling angry and bad if my bet failed to come through so for sure your mood will definitely be affected if you don't put in place the right mentality and maturity to develop a balanced ground that will not shift your feelings no matter what happens.
Transferring and expressing painful behavior to our friends and relatives is always a common things that is almost over all gamblers except for the responsible gamblers or those who are known to per time gamblers most times you hardly noticed about it from them since is not what they regularly carry out like those regular gamblers, whenever a lost is recorded we always feel bad by which affect causing us a mood swinging with provocation what has occurred could make them effecting the effects on their fellows.
Technically, gambling doesn't cause you any behavioral changes but addiction does, that means if you feel that your other activities are affected due to the results of your gambling then it's a sign of symptoms and the severity really depends on the addiction level.
On a note, it's not a big deal to get angry for losing $100 but if that becomes a pattern then it sure has to be addressed ASAP.

Lolz, 
This kind or type of behavior is absolutely normal, nothing special or unique about it, it's a norm for every gambler is you ask me. Like I have always said here, and will continue to say, no body enjoys losing money, even if we are gambling just to have fun, there will always be that emotional attachment that causes us to be extremely happy when we win a game(depending on how much is won by the way), and that same emotional attachment will also make us extremely sad when we are losing, and the worst part of being sad is that, it doesn't just end with us alone, we generally tend to extend this anger to those around us, people that have no involvement in our being angry tend to suffer, and this completely saddens me.
There have been a day I flogged my little daughter so hard, and on a Normal circumstances, I shouldn't flog her that much, but I did it because I was angry due to the money I lost on a game, and later on, while watching her cry, I felt pity for her and had to apologize.
Gambling is crazy if we can't control it's effect on our behavior.

well you are not the only one that actually feels that way when the experience of gambling at that period is on a lose. Whether we like it or not gambling tend to alter our behavior and I have seen so many cases and even myself would be a case study because winning experiences will bring happiness and losing the opposite. Many gambler I have meant go as far as even blaming people on their gambling mistake that lead to lose and they find fault and excuse to pin the blame on others.

Only when the losing becomes consistent you start not answering politely anymore but this happens only with friends and relatives,if this behavior gets in your way in your job place then it means that you have gone deep inside into addiction.That is what happens to me,I use to sometimes shout to my wife when she is talking to me for anything and I am experiencing constant losing through my gambling sessions.
I think when we win it is natural that we talk more slowly and more politely because our mood is better,dopamine is at really high levels this time much different than when you are losing and as such you are happy most of the time.These 2 types are normal gamblers behavior in most instances.

Gambling games will always affect psychology, so it's not wrong for people to say that gambling affects adrenaline too. However, habits will change our behavior in gambling, if you are able to control your emotions and expressions in gambling, then gradually you will get used to the feeling of losing and winning in gambling. Don't get tired of training your emotions in gambling, continue to hone your ability to control everything in your life, this is important for you to be able to carry out your gambling activities normally.
For the last few years that I was gambling, I haven't noticed any significant changes on my behavior at all. I'm still the same guy who responds minimally to a lot of social interactions, and still keeps a lot of things to himself. Though I have been a lot more careful on how I spend my money since I'm constantly discerning whether what I'll spend on is something worth it or something that will pass easily.
But yeah, it's natural that human behaviors shift when they are engaged in an activity such as gambling. They might carry on the irritable nature towards other people when the gambler is placed in an extremely annoying situation, or something negative in general.

That's very natural. When you are winning you tend to think that it will always go like that in the future... So you play more and more and then lose everything. When you are losing, that's a different story. This time you think you can't lose forever and sooner or later you should start winning again but guess what, you can lose 20 times, 30 times consecutively. It is called the "gambler's fallacy".
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambler%27s_fallacy
Basically, what happened in the past doesn't affect what will happen in the future.
Just because you lost 20 times in a row, doesn't mean that you will certainly win the 21st round.
We need to learn to put our feelings aside and listen to what science says.

Your behaviour is not new, factually speaking, it is more like a generic behaviour for all gamblers. I also have experienced this in my gambling life, I have gone through same behavioral pattern but I have also learnt how to remedy it. Whenever I incur losses I just switch to memes and some comic videos, it does help.
Its normal but there would really be specific ranges on where it would be considered to be normal because on the time that you are already that making some huge effect into the people that surrounds you
then this is where we can be able to say that it is really that on extreme manner and something that we could really be able to say that you are really that having that addiction which needed up to be treated
and to be resolved out before it would get worst.
Im not saying that you are automatically considered to be an addict because reactions something like this would really be that normal. It is really just that there are people who cant really be able to
control themselves on the time that it is happening which it turns out that you are really that making yourself look like a crazy person on getting angry on things which arent needed up
to be that way. This is why self control and moderation would really be needed.
Please leave your emotions at the door when you are gambling. Whatever happens when you are gambling should be left that way. Do not try to pick it up after you are done. It requires self-discipline and self-control to do so which is probably very difficult at the beginning but you gotta at least try because your relationships with your significant others are going to be at stake. You do not want them to be scared of you when you gamble. And hey man, if you need a break from gambling please do so. One last thing always put fun and entertainment at the fore of your mind when you game it will help to ease unnecessary tensions.
This was the most important mistake made by the gambler,if they had loss the funds in the gambling.They will add more funds immediately after their loss was happened,this was done with the emotional interference to the gambling due to the loss.The bet after the loss will be made in the random way,So the probability for the game will be mostly for the loss.So the gambler must keep away the emotions before starting the game in the gambling site.The gambler who was self disciplined in their game had more chance of win from the game.The gambling was made on the probability of winning and losing,we must be the professional in the game to make the big win in the game.

Many people like this always have a hot head especially when you have a bad day in gambling and this is common among gambling addicts. You really need to control your emotions here so that you don't bring your defeat or anger home.
I have never done something like this when I lose gambling, I go home with a hot head, not in the mood, etc. I already have a budget when I play gambling and I know how to control my emotions so maybe that has never happened to me.

I think behavioral change is common to all gamblers irrespective of how good a risk manager they are. Generally people tend to be happier when they win and vice versa. This is expected because the ultimate target of every gambler is to win. Personally, I feel happy and proud when I win because I have learnt to celebrate myself whenever I achieve a major milestone. I have as well learnt to manage this excitement so that people do not notice I won something because confidential information should be kept confidential.
