Some years ago, during the world cup tournaments I would lose my sleep. I'll be up almost through the night setting up strategies on how to bet my bets on the games and drawing an imaginary budget on what I'll spend the winnings on. Because I hadn't gotten good rest my judgement becomes very scattered, I'll get easily irritated and of course bet wrongly and lose.
For the times when I win, it is because I didn't think about the games. This is what I was noticed before I win. The reverse is the case for all the losses I experienced.
I learned so much during that period that I know beforehand that my bets haven't been well though through and the outcome may be loss.

Some scenarios do indeed relate to what I've experienced, such as after a big win, I always feel the urge to bet on the next victory by playing a few more games. Sure, I've won again a few times, but what happens most often is a streak of losses. Handling a significant amount of money from gambling seems to make it quite challenging for me to maintain discipline.
Another scenario is my curiosity about other games where I haven't achieved my first win. I do enjoy trying out several games to discover which ones are engaging and match my current mood. Surprisingly, this tends to lead me to waste my deposit funds.
This is the typical scenario where the casino can make a comeback to you even if you won a lot of profit beforehand. This kind of situation can be avoided if you had a plan from the start of your gambling session. Putting some target profit goal would have avoid that kind of situation. Another scenario is my curiosity about other games where I haven't achieved my first win. I do enjoy trying out several games to discover which ones are engaging and match my current mood. Surprisingly, this tends to lead me to waste my deposit funds.
There's no problem in exploring or trying different casino games but you plan a head in minimizing your funds that you will use to play as you have a record of not getting a win on the games you want to try. It's basically for entertainment purposes but minimizing the losses would have been better.

It is important to take notice of our emotions and how they affect the decisions that we take, when people are emotional they take all kind of decisions which deep down they know are a mistake, but at the time they do not think about it as they are fixated on getting their way no matter what, however once they calm down they realize their mistakes and now instead of just moving on and accept them they want to correct them, which leads them through another round of losses.
If they can realize their mistakes, it is time to stop gambling without thinking about previous losses. If we want to recover from losses, it will definitely be difficult because we will face more losses. And it's really good if they can calm down, especially after experiencing many losses, to reduce their emotions due to their loss. And immediately forget about the loss and don't remember it because it will only make us sad and there is a possibility that we will want to keep trying to recover. Yeah, and it's a first sign that the gambler might be addicted as well if he can't take it on himself and blame others for what he has done and lose his money. And I can't really understand their logic though, I mean they are the one who plays for it, regardless if it is slot games or some sports beating.
This is just an excuse obviously, and then they will continue to gamble. And the funny thing is that if they won, they won't blame anyone and then really tap themselves in the back and tell that they did a good job
. On the contrary, if they lose again, they will have to find something to accused of like bring some bad luck to them.The addicted gamblers will start to say reason on others as compared to himself or on gambling.So the addicted person ultimate target will be the other person,for this reason the gamblers get their blame on friends and family members.Even for the loss of the game,they will say the event of gamble with their friend in the same Casio not worked good.Like this the addicted person will reduce their blame on others as soon as they started to get away from the addiction.The most of the addict will play the same game for the n number of times,even they loss all the money in the same game.They start to think in the way of winning in the same game by practice the same game n number of time to get victory.This also cause addiction to the gamblers.
It's not easy to accept loss for a gambler because he has to be able to lower his ego simultaneously, especially since his emotions are running high and he can't think rationally. He may have lost a lot of money but he doesn't realize it because he still wants to win so he keeps trying even though he has lost before. I don't know what was on his mind but he just wanted to gamble even though he realized it could make him lose more. And when he tried all the ways but nothing worked, he ended up with deep despair and frustration because he couldn't win the game he liked. By then, he may have become so badly addicted to gambling that it's hard to help unless he notices it himself.

In my opinion all these distractions are excuses that are usually used by people who are weak in spirit. If a person has a goal, he will pursue it to the end and neither wind nor inconvenient position will prevent him from doing so. This is also the case in gambling. One gambler recognizes the mistakes made during the gambling session, and the other is constantly looking for someone to blame, because he does not want to appear weak in the eyes of others. In my opinion, this is just a defense mechanism that does not work very well.

We usually fail to understand because of desperation and chasing losses. Most of us become too emotional and have been controlled by it which causes us to commit more mistakes and losses. I can admit that I was in that situation before and I thought that gambling more and spending more would help to recover losses but in the end, I'm the one suffering the most while the house takes all my money. The more we become disappointed, the more the house loves us. we cannot avoid losing scenarios like this unless we can win ourselves over to quit gambling forever.

The word comfortable is very hard to attached on gambling since you are risking money at all times even with small amount. Small bets means small wins
By comfortable I mean like a sniper lying prone taking his shot, they'll be a point they are in the zone and able to hit their designated target as per their job for their best aim with all factors in that moment vs wind random factor pushing their shot off; if they are distracted by rubbish beneath making them uncomfortable there's no way they are going to be as able to gain that focus. Any distraction basically, any negative thought or if you lost prior and this upset your feel on this day this alone can throw all your bets off afterwards.
Sometimes it is better to stand up, go for a walk maybe a long walk maybe come back the next day but dont ignore that your best aim is not there always sometimes you will be tired and any number of reasons. I expect to lose if the feel isnt right there for me hence also true that small bets small losses also right ?
Some of the things you mentioned like waking up very early without food in your stomach or gambling late at night, I didn't go as far as that. But there was a time I used to gamble a lot on sport betting, I would spend hours picking and analysing my games only for it to be ruined by one games just few hours after kickoff. This kept on and on and my losses were piling up, it got to a point that I decided to take a break to clear my head and it worked. Whenever I'm doing something and I realize that it's taking much of my time and not giving me the right results, I would just abandon it and maybe come back some other time.
I can't stand skipping breakfast and depriving myself from going to sleep when my body is already looking for the bed. I feel like there's some sort of addiction in this kind of situation, as he is trying to harm himself, disregarding what's essential to feed ones desire. Well, I hope it does not get worse.
I know losing is very frustrating, but there's only one thing I know that's been very effective for many people, just like you I tend to take a break and have a breather, eat delicious food and drink a little, sleep early and bounce back in the morning. Chasing losses no matter how huge or how big it is, doesn't end up well.
sleep but not for all because even myself considered out on having those kind of moments where you do really have that huge disappointment on your gambling activity or even on those simple trading with markets but never ever that goes into my mind on skipping out my meal or having no sleep because i do have in mind that health is wealth and if you do lose up money and do such foolish things like putting up your health on danger then it wont really be that worth on doing so. You are really just making things even more worst aside on losing money.,We do know that being healthy should really be your main priority and never ever make yourself
that goes into that certain extent or simply stop it out.
Losing is inevitable on gambling and this is why its always been important on making use of the funds on which you can really afford to lose because on the time that you've come up with this
management then you wont really be finding yourself to be that impulsive.

Gambling does not cause harm to those who understand gambling. They know their chances of defeat are high. They are not even optimistic to get from gambling. But like you, I would say that those who try to understand gambling as deeply as possible will succeed in gambling even if they don't win. When they lose money in gambling they consider it as a part of their gambling activities. But if one gambles only to win without understanding gambling then at some point they will lose their wealth they just consider it as a source of income that should avoid. Everyone needs to have a good idea of how gambling should be perceived and not just about money should know how it works.
There's no harm in gambling and that's true, but we appear to be the ones that makes it appears more of having difficulty in it because of the way we do it, there are so may things that have been the cause from us for having losses when we gamble and these are mere mistakes we could always try to avoid if we had been mindful of them right from time, gambling is meant to serve as a means of creating fun in what we do and not to get us frustrated because we are not being served well as expected due to our own mistakes.
Breaking routine describes all those possible mistakes. Not that it has to be unlucky just seems to go that way when you dont play the way you feel most comfortable doing so. I would add small advice if you are out of your comfort zone, reduce size never be against in effect taking some profits by reducing the capital amount risked trying to win more. I tend to stop after a while so I can return later otherwise getting too tired is a big one to induce unnecessary mistakes.
The word comfortable is very hard to attached on gambling since you are risking money at all times even with small amount. Small bets means small wins which either makes you uncomfortable too if you are just playing for a long time while your balance is varying from plus minus a penny amount.
For me, The only time I can be comfortable playing regardless of the bet size is when my bankroll is already green with a great percentage profit. This way, I can assure that all the bets I made is not a total loss because my bankroll is in profit.

We are just humans and it would really be just that normal that you would really be that having that kind of reaction on which it would really be leading into those impulsive actions.If you are a type of person on whose really that good when it comes to emotion handling then you could really be able to assess on what are the things that you must do in order to prevent more damage on which it would really be just that normal that you would really be able to assess and thats an advantage for you compared on other people who do fail on doing so. This is why it would really be that wise that you should really be that knowing on how to control your temper and would really that crucial on these kind of times. Impulsive emotions would really be leading to impulsive actions which would be leading into more severe condition which you might be having a hard
time to recover specially if the damage is severe specially on financial state.
This is where emotional control is needed by every gambler so that they can prevent even more losses if they decide to continue their gambling game. Prolonged emotions will only harm you because you lose self-control, causing you to be unable to see the reality that has happened to you. You just want to continue gambling without wanting to stop. And if this continues, you will likely experience a gambling addiction because you just want to satisfy your desire to gamble without stopping. Perhaps many of us have experienced it, but some of us decided to learn from experience so it doesn't happen again. It is a good decision if we want to learn from experience because it can increase our wisdom in gambling in the future. time to recover specially if the damage is severe specially on financial state.
