Essentially you are trying to hide, or escape from the out of control feeling or poor decision making instead of dealing with the issue head-on. Sure, people take breaks…cool off after taking a beat, and come back feeling better, but what have they actually learned? Have they learned to control their emotions or separate their future decisions from their past results…..no all they have done is swept the emotions or bad play under the carpet. Sure you come back feeling better for a while, but I would be willing to wager that you will tilt much easier the second, third, fourth….or hundredth time.
This is the gem of the whole post.

Just like someone who goes on a diet, they cheat once and they feel bad, cheat twice not quite so bad, rather quickly they drop the whole diet and pig out.

Go on tilt once and blow some money. Feel really bad. Do it twice and thats not quite as painful. Pretty soon you are are tilt permanently and you dont even know how you got there. Blowing money left and right telling everyone how rigged it is.
