You should update the op and give more description on what you want to ask,you can loose bitcoins in many ways.Gambling or investing in ponzi sites or may be sending to wrong address by mistake.But if you loose by any of those methods you cannot get your coins back by any way,so it would be better that you should carefully use your bitcoins.
If the private keys lose, then there is no way to recover your coins.so u shuold put the private key in a secure place including having a hard copy of it.
Yes you should have a backup for your private keys and also of your wallet.dat file if you have a desktop wallet. You can save this file in your USB stick or burn in cd/dvd media. If it is stored in online exchanges, then do not lose your password.
What you said about desktop wallet saving wallet.dat file and the seed key which is the main key through which you can reinstall the desktop wallet and rebuild your old wallet and you will get back your bitcoins, but in online exchanges even if you are having password but if the online wallet site goes scam then you can do nothing as you are not holding the private keys of your online wallet through which you can recover it.
so it is not recommend to keep your bitcoins in online wallet.

Once you lose bitcoin and then you didn't know what really happen it's just automatically sent into another bitcoin address you can't really do nothing just to see your bitcoin sending or waiting for confirmation to confirmed even you reported that into your bitcoin wallet support they are going to say that your bitcoin sent to another bitcoin address.

the lost bitcoins are lost forever, and this give more power(price )for the rest remaining
if you send into wrong address then you can not get your bitcoins back. and it will be lost forever and you can not do anything when its happen to you. so be careful when you want to send.
You wont really get those bitcoins if you accidentaly sent it to a random address because the owner of that wallet would be grateful that theres a blessing comes to his wallet. lol. They wont mind to give it back or send it back to the owner because thats already a money and its precious for us and dont tend to give it back.

I understand you hence we are feeling the same thing too. Earning bitcoin would really require stugglle, time and effort and suddenly those bitcoin would be lost then for sure you would really have a hard time to cope up especially if those bitcoins are on huge amounts and you save it for a long time. when I lost bitcoin then I will live and sleep all day.

If the OP meant the losing of the identifier or the password, then due to the advancement in several wallets it can be retained, but if he meant about the loss happening due to transfer to the wrong bitcoin address then nothing is possible. Only possibility is that receiver needs a Kind heart to return which doesn't belong to him.
If we are talking money here, if you accidentaly pass or transfer bitcoin to a random wallet for sure say goodbye to your money because the chance of recieving it back is zero unless if the owner would give it back which is a really rare person to have nowadays.

Atleast you can't lose more then you have. Imagine if someone 'hacks/cracks" your credit card, you could make a much bigger loss.when I lost bitcoin then I will live and sleep all day.
What you are telling is wrong the same way if he cannot lose more then he have in wallet the same way he cannot lose if his credit card is also lost as you can only use till the limit what it is assigned.
In bitcoins if once lost you can do nothing , as you cannot track who is the thief or hacker.
