There is no disgrace in defeat.  Often players and teams are down on themselves after a loss. Destructive behaviour to ease the pain does not help, and is a short term fix, for the comeback. A lot of positive messages can be extracted from a defeat, eg

• The strengths and weaknesses of the team/players and coaches can be identified
• The club and family support system reviewed
• Look at the back-up carefully to see if you like what you see.

Positive action following a win or loss can be as simple or as expensive as is thought necessary; however, in the planning of celebrations there are good ingredients for a positive outcome, eg

• Have a massage
• Surround players/teams with positive friends, family and supporters.
• Take a break for a few days doing relaxing things or hobbies.
• See a good movie.

And there are many more ideas I am sure.

Negative action following a win or loss, eg

• Get drunk
• Spend heaps of money
• Take drugs
• Neglect the family
• Have an affair
• Avoid your friends

And there are many more things to add to the list.
If the latter is your way of handling it, seek professional help.
