I guess you can see from this thread Donger that 200bb session downswings are inevitable for anyone who doesnt have an arbitrary stop-loss limit. Since avoiding these terrible sessions is impossible, the only thing you can do is try to use some psychological tricks to keep you from getting too upset/depressed.

When I have a really bad session I prefer the time tested "counting your blessings" approach. For example, If you have a large penis, just focus on that after you lose alot of money, or if you have a hot girlfriend just think about her. I usually just think about how lucky I am not to have aids; that all my limbs are still attached; or that I never got caught for statutory rape. Then I usually feel better.

"I never got caught for statutory "

haha awesome ! That implies you did it, which is equally very strong.

I play 5-10 to 15-30 and I have a $1k stop loss so this will never happen. I really feel I play terribly once I reach $1k.

TBH, the zone I tend to play the worst is between -500 and -1000. After 1000, I tend to just laugh at the absurdity of the beats and/or my bad play.
