Addiction is sickness and that is one of the hardest sickness that can be on treatment.  And too much is consider as sickness just like those people who are very addict with gambling and I would say because of it you will be having hard time cure yourself. Unless someone will help you to treat your own sickness that doesn't have cure.
It's more on a mental sickness that might effect into physical sickness when your addiction is too much. We have to be very careful with gambling as it can destroy lives if we are not being careful. Understanding is what matters so we can minimize the risk by properly managing it.
No matter how much you manage if you gamble a time comes in each of us' life where we are feeling too bad and gamble more than we can afford. I am not saying that you cannot spend your money but suppose someone on road is burning his currency and hoping for money, will you not call him sick ?

Gambling is risky game of money from which most people lose and just a few wins. Gambling too is addictive and fun especially when you're winning and that's why most people can't get away from gambling once they get in it.
In gambling you only win from the start then you lose whenever you win a certain amount.

Well, i agree with you. That's why you need to control yourself when do gambling. Some people can't control himself for gambling and the end people complaining about gambling.

Gambling can be considered as a sickness when a person cant control him/herself and spent most of his/her time and money just for gambling. If we do gamble more and more with no control and forgot the other things in our daily life, the end result will be very bad.
everything that done excessively always have a bad end , in gambling the same thing applies. you shouldn't gamble like a mad , just gamble on your spare time not regular time that you can use for something more productive than gambling. it's a sickness when you gamble like a mad stake everything you have without considering the consequences you would receieve in the future.
I just prove i again and again, and actually I lose bet big now in one of the games in NBA and I am so  down dude..I though it was a sure win after many days of my cold streak. I wish I would break this cold streak sooner. I can't wait to see my bets  get green, it's red now and not nice in my eyes.

This is the common gambler fallacy. People tends to feel that they will have a higher chance to win after losing for so many times. In fact, the chance still remains the same.

That's why question raises to call it sickness because people know they will loose like you also know yet you are betting and hoping, while its just a matter of odds and house edge. I mean even if you get enormously lucky and win then maybe next day you win, yet you feel for it, so maybe yeah fine to call gambling as sickness.

Yeah definitely. In my opinion gambling is worse than drugs because drugs will run out and eventually you can realise that drugs are bad or just don't have the money to do it anymore. But with gambling you don't get physically disabled... Nor can you overdose. You can borrow more and more money to gamble without stop.

With that statement, I think gambling should not be considered as sickness. It is very much different and should not be compared to drugs. In both you can lose money but the effect of drugs is much worst compared to gambling. But gambling is curable and don't need to make a rehabilitation and there is no collateral damage to your brain.

Indeed mate. Gambling is curable compared to other sickness or even for those who are addicted to drugs. Gambling can be cure by your own willingness to quit. It's your WILL to stay away from gambling for good no one can help you but just only you.
Well, if a person is really willing to quit gambling because he feels that gambling is not already giving him the benefits so he has to quit whatever it takes. It is considered sickness to those who fail in life because of gambling but for us who enjoys it, it's called entertainment.
yes it is a fact that gambling is not sickness as people are playing gambling for enjoyment and therefore they do not invest big amount in gambling, while some people play gambling in a strategy and they play gambling in a limit and making good money therefore gambling is not sickness for them.
gambling is not a sickness, even addicted to gambling is not a sickness. I just feel that gambling is a game that makes people addicted weight bias, such as drugs, but this is a different path. gambling is just a hobby that can make others be damaged if the people who play to lose control
Yeah gambling is not a sickness i think its just a term we can not consider it as sickness gambling is just a business people who are addicted it is because it is a game just like other games that can be addicted but the problem is there is money involve.
It is more bad result if you addicted in gambling drugs just like other said..

You do not loose your money when you are addicted in walking, in gambling it's different as even when you do not need to spend gambling for longer hours but you bet big enough that you cannot afford to lose, that is already considered as an addiction and most likely you will suffer from big loses.
That's not a valid point. Not losing money out of an addiction doesn't make it any less of a bad thing. Let's get one thing straight, the involvement of money is not how you would decide if you're addicted at it. Any form of addiction is sickness. No matter what addiction that is, regardless of the involvement of money, that's still addiction and it's still a sickness that affects your mind and actions a lot.
No brother you got it totally wrong. I have a addiction of studying and with that addiction I am now doing a excellent job and getting paid very nice. How can you call my study addiction as sickness ?
Sometimes addiction are good and sometimes they can destroy your life, addiction means you are prone to it and feel doing that over and over again.

Actually the fact of you are addicted to gambling is bad already but if you involve money then it's worst. And since people who gets addicted to gambling are those people who involved more money than others. So that's why I think gambling should be considered as a sickness from which a doctor/psychiatrist to cure it.

Yeah, right. Gambling should be considered as a sickness which is not that easy to cure because once that you are into it, it is not easy for you to get out. Winning on gambling makes the door that you've enter more narrow and narrower every time that you do gambling and the will that you're going to win and take all back what you've lost to it is the reason for that door to be closed for you not to get out of it, and that is called "addiction". You can get out by the help of someone and also the help from yourself. You need to be serious about getting out of it because it may lead to darkness and the worst thing is you can become the darkness.
It should be considered as a sickness because some of our country men are really addicted to it just loosing money and they are just believing that they can really make profit from gambling website. and facing gambling is not easy to do don't idolize those people who can really make profit if you are going to see those net profit you will shock that it's okay if they lose bitcoin into there account.
You are only talking of some, and some for me does not mean majority.. Gambling is fun to play for me and I am sure for others as well, and I believe irresponsible people are those who have gambling sickness are making their own destiny, if they will go bankrupt that is their fault and not by gambling.
We are making our own destiny in every what way we are facing off and if we are making our destiny in gambling then don't depends on luck that we are going to win in every time we are going to make some good high bets and we are irresponsible we are not knowing what will be the result in every gambling we play.

Addiction is sickness and that is one of the hardest sickness that can be on treatment.  And too much is consider as sickness just like those people who are very addict with gambling and I would say because of it you will be having hard time cure yourself.

It's more on a mental sickness that might effect into physical sickness when your addiction is too much. We have to be very careful with gambling as it can destroy lives if we are not being careful. Understanding is what matters so we can minimize the risk by properly managing it.
lol what kind physical sickness you will get because gambling? give me an example.

nothing wrong basically with gambling as long as you treat it correctly. gambling designed to make people entertained , but as time goes by it is turned to something worse , people come to a casino to doubling their money. this is the beginning mistake which can leading to a sickness.

Yeah because you do not have a good thinking when you are in gambling. What you think is mostly you will bet and bet and bet, you do not count your loses and only rejoice your winnings, but later you will realize that you are slowly losing your money and in the end you might go broke.

I don't really understand your statement, except for the last part...But anyway, I think it has a cure, and don't need a lifetime treatment...In fact, some gamblers themselves quit it, it just need a good reason to quit, and it should weigh heavier than your reason to gamble...I think it should not be considered as sickness, it belong to the disorders like being shopaholic, Kleptomaniac and others like that...  Smiley
