When you gamble when your thoughts are in trouble is too risky. It will tend you to lose amount that you didn't expected. In that state you have many thoughts that are running in your mind so you can't think right. Better to pick up your thoughts before you do this, talk to someone to release all your emotions and what's bothering you. Then just go back when everything's ok and play without worries.
Playing or gambling when you are in trouble or having some issues would certainly lead to a huge risk of losing money. I would suggest that in such type of emotions it should be released by speaking to friends, relatives etc. Be fresh and enjoy the game in casino without nay problem or worries and see it will be a different experience altogether.

No i never did that in past if i am sad it would mean i will always think about that incident even while gambling and won't be able to control myself and finally will become more sad because i lost the money we should always gamble with a clear mind and should have all the time otherwise we will lose
yeah basically when you are in the bad situation and decide to release all of the bad things through gambling i think it would only make things getting worse. not a good idea at all , it might help you but only temporary . it's just fulfil your lust for a moment. escape yourself from any problem to a better way , gambling aren't really an answer for sure.people who's involved to much with gambling already suffering with their addiction so better to divert your worries and other problem with some
healthy ways like sports activities or mental challenges.

I think it's perfectly normal for any of us to find some form of escapism. I guess for the majority, it doesn't get out of hand and serves stress-reducing purposes. Gambling is one of those things I can keep relative tabs on. Especially when I'm stressed, I do lose control every now and then, but at worst, I lose just a bit more than I intended. A follow up deposit when I've lost my initial, for example. But I've just heard to many stories and seen too many cases of ruined lives from gambling debt to go down that path. Unfortunately, I have other vices that I am less able to control...

Maybe most gamblers gamble on the grounds to kill their boredom. I'm not too sure if gamblers gamble to escape from trouble, to escape from loneliness. Loneliness will not disappear because of gambling, unless you gamble directly, not online gambling. Direct interaction that removes loneliness.

If you need reason to gamble, then it's a pure addiction because addictions take place only when you are depressed or are trying to escape something.
Gambling should never be done to escape anything as it could lead to serious losses and even much more depression levels could be observed. I gamble to make money no matter how, but I do it and manage to make some. When I lose, I don't cry but try hard to gamble back and earn something but what's lost is lost, I never try to recover it. It's not good to gamble while in trouble because it could also lead you to more trouble if, let's say, you do it with someone's money and lose. Yes I would say I want to remove boredom out of my life and I gamble for fun.

I never gamble when I want to escape from something, it will probably cause counter-effect. I have different ways to deal with things mentioned, gambling is not one of them.
Seriously. It is saturday, go outside, when you see nice lady buy her a drink, I am sure that will be a good start to fight your loneliness, bad mood etc.
It's a great idea to talk to this outside when you guys are in both mood and have the same interests. Then talk again about gambling and how to manage to win or to get a win streak if by chances could allow you to win. To win in gambling we need a Strong mood not a bad mood , Bad mood can give a more chances to loss in the game , When i feel worry or to relieve Stress from mind I just spent 10 to 15$ in gambling , sometimes it give me more return than regular play. Gambling is not good way to Enjoy loneliness but its better then to drink alcohol
Not really, mood can't change your chance. I am not sure from where did you get this silly idea.Quote

This is something we could discuss Seriously. It is saturday, go outside, when you see nice lady buy her a drink, I am sure that will be a good start to fight your loneliness, bad mood etc.

I gamble most of the time when I am alone.
The only way to escape all the above problems is not to gamble, gambling will just compound the frustrations that you are already feeling, Alcohol have been the short term problem solver from the time GOD sacked Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden. Just take a sip of whiskey rather than gambling and forget your problems. September 09, 2017, 01:44:48 PM
I never gamble to escape worry, trouble,boredom,loneliness, grief or lose, mainly because I know gambling is inherently stupid and you are going to lose, but I like the thrill of gambling in special occasions when I take a trip to Las Vegas with friends or something. So actually I gamble less than 10 days per year.
If I was rich I would like to attend the big boxing fights in MGM grand and I would for sure play around in the casino while im at it, but im not rich so im stuck watching pirated streams.

Sometimes I gamble because of boredom or because I'm procrastinating on doing something that needs to get done. But I also gamble for entertainment. I do get some enjoyment out of it because there is a thrill to betting when something is on the line and you have a chance to make some money.

No, I haven't done that ever. I have been playing computer games, watching movies or simply drinking until I dropped, but never thought about gambling.
Aren't you afraid that losing can make your mood even worse and as a result bring you into a state of heavy depression?
yep I play gambling when i'am bored and even i feel loneliness. playing gambling is one of my stress reliever and also gambling makes my mind clear and stay sharp. If I won on a game i keep playing cause all i want is to feel that im not alone and to relieved my loneliness inside me.

Quite contrary, i am gamble when mood is happy or when getting additional bonus from business partner. Sometimes when i'm tired of my work routine, i will gamble but only for a few minutes, then resume work. Because, gambling just makes me feel want to keep playing.
September 09, 2017, 11:10:34 AM
Definitely not, for now... since I always gamble to try to make a profit. If I will play for the reasons as mentioned by the op... well I would lose a lot of money since you can't focus on a game if you feel bad. I always make sure that I'm in the good mood before I play because this will help me focus on gambling.

For the above mentioned reasons of Op I have never been into gambling. My focus is earning and most of the time sports betting is given priority. Here too I don't participate regularly, but with the teams that I have data regarding their way of planning as well the players involved in the game.
September 09, 2017, 08:42:05 AM
When I was younger I habitually gambled for the reasons you have mentioned, but since some years I play only to spend my time and have some fun.
But I have to confirm that gambling is also good to forget about the problems one have. And this very healthy compared to alcohol or drugs.
