How do you deal with your gambling depression? It is normal but as we Gamble, we lose many times, we get depressed, it's normal. That's part of how do you deal with your depression, over the last couple years, I've made many friends, believe it or not. They have shared their stories with me and it really saddens me, I am lucky because I have a family, a good income and my health is OK, but many of the people I speak to are really in bad shape. Some even talked about just giving it all up because they don't want to wake up the next day. Personally, when I go on a bad Run, I really get down, I'm not the same with my children, nothing works right in my head, and I just hate everything. Even if it's minimal deposits that I lose now, in the old days, I cripple $3000 in a day, but now, that amount has been reduced dramatically because I was able to control myself better. My depression, really makes me angry, when I going and lose, I feel like I have been violated, like someone has stolen something from me. How do I deal with it, I don't drink, I don't do drugs, I'm pretty clean but dealing with this depression involves me going into a state of silence. I don't want to know anything from anybody, it's really sad, but gambling brings a big depression from me. I'm usually a pretty active person was very happy and is always running around doing things, but the depression at this sadness really cuts me down, I will never win 100% of the time so that will always be a part of me since I will be losing many times.
