for me gambling becomes a sickness if only you know that you are losing and you still continue to gamble. playing even if you know that you will just lose is a sickness and not a self confidence. you may say it self confidence but if you always lose it will be a sickness even if you know that you are always losing you still continue.

No one continues gambling for just losing more, it is just they want to recover their losses but they don't realize that they are going deeper in that well, and at the time when they come to know that they are drowning, there is no time to react and they find themselves dead (out of funds). After that, everyone says we wont gamble again but after a few days they start again because they are addicted.
- Yes, right from the start gambling, they can not go back. Gambling is a serious disease, it can makes many people bankrupt and gets mad if we continue to playing. I have seen so many cases of gamblers become addicted, they are crazy and do everything to get money to gamble. Gambling is really a disease of the world

for the good peoples gambling is an evil act especially if someone who is already addicted to gambling and don't have money they will do everything possible to get money to gamble
Thats right the people who doesnt play gambling . They considered gambling as an evil doing and they are judging first the gamblers .Gambling is good if you know how to control your self on playing and has a great percentage of winning than lossing but if you are addicted and you have a crave to play gambling even you dont  have money is bad.

Don't automatically associate gambling addiction to gambling, most gamblers can enjoy gambling with being addicted. Also, I don't think people who gambles are bad when it is just an entertainment and it will not do harm unto us if we will play it with discipline. It's very important we should understand gambling first before entering to it.

I think what the topic is trying to say is that, there are a lot of people who become addicted and starts destroying their lives including relationships and themselves. It could be like that, like addiction to some things like drugs and something. Addiction can be cured but not always, be admitted to a mental health to help your problems or be in a focus group.
I also find the topic wrong, but in my understanding addiction in gambling can be a sickness. Because once you can't control yourself playing gambling and you became out of control then it is already an addiction which they can called sickness.

Gambling can be considered sickness when a person is addicted without self control on his gambling habbit. The benefit of gambling is stress reliever and fun for those who are bored and busy of work. The advantage and disadvantages gambling is for fun and not for addiction, so you need self control to avoid that sickness that may happen to us who gamble.
Im agree to you that gambling addiction is considered as a sickness cause of lack of control in gambling.Like you said we need to control our self and became a responsible gambler to avoid addiction.

it's not about selfcontrol, it won't change much for me, the only way i see is changing attitude and prefering to do something else, make something else more important in the centre of your life, gambling come from being greedy for me, if you cna live a happy life without being addicted to money you are half way to succeed

How is it a stress reliever when you are playing with money?it might be a stress reliever when you win however it is going to affect you either way when you lose. When you are stressed and you lose money then that is where the sad part is and everyone just cant stand that kind of feelings

i think what he is saying is if he wins in gambling he will get a satisfaction from it like what we wants. if we are stressed with work and you got home after you play with your child youre stress will be relieved because you did what you want. just like me after school i got to play computer games and my stress from school is being relieved.

We have to be man enough to accept our loses, in that way, we can easy move on and still enjoy the game. It's hard to make ourselves think that gambling can be a good source of income, our desperation to make money should not be done in a way that we have to take bigger risk with lesser chances, and gambling is a good example on that.

That's always the case when gambling. It's always going to be deeper UNLESS you act on it carefully. Be smart in gambling and know that you have some amount you have to take care and know you put hard work in. Don't ever think that it's okay to lose money because it has value, it could've helped some people, but it's a way to earn, so play smart.
It's our money and we should enjoy its value, we can lose but make sure we are having fun. Gambling is not a sickness if you are not doing it in an excessive way as that will be the reason of addiction. Since the winning rate for gamblers in the long run is pretty low, why not accept it and just play for fun.

I guess it would be better if we are just enjoying it than seeking for a method that has never existed.
Whether or not you are winning or losing, whether or not you are addicted or a casual player gambling won't be considered as a sickness. A sickness will make you ill and weak, gamblimg won't even give you that kind of symptoms in fact the only thing it can give you is addiction which is a totally different thing to sickness.

If you too often lose, of course you get sickness, but if you got big victory, you never sick. I think this is depends of the result. Many people complain when lose but they forget after get win.

Much better to say that if you gamble too often then you can get sickness, body sickness, mental sickness and other sickness that can be lead for gambling too much. And I can relate also when people that has sickness when they win, they are making it as a cure and their sickness is becoming gone a little by little.
It start with the mind sickness, when you have that, your body will also depreciate and you will be sick. I would not want to be in that situation in the future that's why I made sure I am being responsible in gambling. For newbies, they think it's easy to make money, they started gambling but does not make a deep research on the possibilities, thus, when they experience the negative possibility they do not know how to handle it.

No one wants to be in that situation because that type of sickness. And any sickness that a gambler will be facing that is because of his negligence when it comes to gambling, negligence of not controlling his emotion and for being too much excited every time he is going to gamble. I'm really trying to stay away and avoid this type of attitude.
i think we can consider such activities as sickness which are not good for your health and can harm us financially  or not fit for our social life. therefore i think if you play gambling in such a way that it is not harming it and you are just playing it for time pass or to get some enjoyment then we cannot call it as sickness.
We can really enjoy playing gambling and it is also depend on us on how we handle our every game. And for me playing gambling can make us grow also so we can have an experience in losing and winning. But of course it always depend of a person.

No it's not a disease that is like dengue. Dengue can be cured with medicines. Gambling addiction, on the other hand, can't. It's a mental sickness and dengue is a health sickness. It's much harder to cure someone that has mental sickness because it would take time and practice to do so. Gambling addicts have to attend seminars and meet up with other individuals that suffer from the same sickness which is addiction. If they do it by themselves, it would be a really really tough battle and the chance of them actually succeeding is very low.

You simply just can't say "I want to quit gambling" and then be cured the next day.

You are right that it can't be cured with medicine like other diseases but there are many solutions:
If he normally takes money from his bank account even though you told him to stop he doesn't let him use all money and of course one day it will end he may realise the mistake he made and stop the addiction.
Even if he still continues to gamble I think the best thing is to take him to a psychologist.

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.

Gambling is becoming risky if you have a lot money when you enter inside the gambling sites. But even if  you have a lot of money but you never try to get inside of it, probably risk not be also connect with you. Therefore, no addiction and no sickness will be happen.

Well I don't think that playing gambling should be considered as a sickness,
Maybe some player who are a compulsive gambler is sick but for those who can controll their selves I don't think they are also sick maybe they are just doing it for profit like me and when ever we reach that limit we would just simply stop.

Yes ,not all gamblers who gambling is sick of addicted playing continously without caring about how much money they supposed to be lost . Gambling only considered as a sickness if a person doesn't control himself over gambling activities .

gambling does not have a positive impact, and gambling has many negative effects. so I think gambling is a sickness. most people of his life is broken because of gambling than successful because of gambling and because success in gambling such as 1:1000000

yeah there's no positive impact since chances of winning is really small and with how the gambling addicts work chasing that luck will affect how they think about their life, its a sickness if we are in the point that we can no longer control ourselves doing it not only to have some fun but because of greediness thinking that we can earn easy money for a short period of time.

Then why are you promoting what you think is a sickness Cheesy

Addiction is not a sickness or a disease, addiction is a choice made by the person who is an addict,
they may say that they didn't want or didn't have any choice but the truth is they do, they a choice
to resist the urge they have the choice to control themselves they have the choice to discipline themselves.
in the end, addiction is just a matter of choices, not a sickness.

I think the better way to put it is: They used to have a choice not to become an addict, and now they don't. It's hard to quit something once you get addicted to it. You essentially have no more choice because the addiction has become a part of you. It might be easy to say that you still have a choice because you can quit at any given time. You can always quit, but it's hard to keep it up. You can stop gambling for a day, sure. But can you stop gambling for a week long, month long, year long? It would take time before you can finally do.

It differs on every person. Maybe quitting an addiction for you is easy because you tried it once. But there are some that would always go back to that very same addiction over and over again even when they are trying not to.

Hahaha
You may say gambling is a disease or dengue or addiction or any other else's
In my idea gambling would be a sickness if the gambler when they play they always lost their amount or the player whose play without no break
It will different to say if we do always win or get/earn a little amount in gambling Smiley

No it's not a disease that is like dengue. Dengue can be cured with medicines. Gambling addiction, on the other hand, can't. It's a mental sickness and dengue is a health sickness. It's much harder to cure someone that has mental sickness because it would take time and practice to do so. Gambling addicts have to attend seminars and meet up with other individuals that suffer from the same sickness which is addiction. If they do it by themselves, it would be a really really tough battle and the chance of them actually succeeding is very low.

You simply just can't say "I want to quit gambling" and then be cured the next day.
