Topic: Health Benefits of Gambling - page 4. (Read 2242 times)

I have never come across this kind of topic in the gambling discussion before. It was just funny to me to be able to see this kind of topic but I had no option than to read in between lines to understand what the topic is all about. As it may sound, gambling has health benefits as op has said above. I have to agree with the point that gambling improves mood which I know is realistic. Also have to agree that gambling relieves stress but both the changing mood to a happy mood and relieving stress depends on the outcome of the gambling. Me someone who is sad and eventually loses big amount of money will even want to commit suicide. The point that gambling makes people happy is only relevant if there is a win.

The only point that sounds ridiculous to me is that gambling helps one to take risk. Although the point is valid however gambling itself is the risk so it does not help anyone to take risk. Should also exist it is not a calculated risk so it is just gambling.

But negative really outweighs its positive side and this is why its not really that shocking that people would really be laughing or would really be believing that
there are no positive things that could be acquired through gambling or dealing with it but instead people would really be getting losses.
There would really be no issues in overall if you do really just that make yourself that responsible. There are really those people who are really that treating gambling as a source
of income and this what makes them do able to mess up their lives instead on playing alone for leisure. Bad or wrong intentions and beliefs would really be causing for you to mess up yourself into
gambling field.

What I mean is that the misunderstanding of gambling makes most people have the point of view that gambling is a quick way to become rich, and they come with high enthusiasm to achieve that success. I think that mindset is a fact that they really have especially when in the early stages of getting involved in gambling, because we have seen a lot of evidence that the level of people who are addicted is increasing because they come with the wrong mindset and understanding as I said above, but unfortunately they put their hopes in the wrong place which of course makes them suffer a lot of money loss.

That is why gambling is synonymous with something negative in the eyes of society, none other than because society has proven that they have seen many people who have experienced major problems as a result of gambling itself, such as losing all assets or even the destruction of family relationships. So the understanding and point of view on gambling must be correct from the start so that you don't get lost, this is nothing more than a probability activity to fill your spare time when you are bored.

Everything has a negative and positive side. It's also true for gambling. But as gamblers we always neglect the negative sides and try to live up to the positive ones. But it is needless to say that will never be possible. Everything comes at a risks, so is gambling. Thats why we all should be prepared for the worst. The last thing a gambler needs to be is being responsible.

Not at all if that's the mind set of everybody then maybe everybody is rich already , always think that gambling is already negative for our health not just having fun but in the end everybody new exactly gonna happen in the long run of playing losing of your self , being too addictive and yes being bankrupt at the end of the day which wrong and already ruined life of your future. Im agree to you that you should have control over your self which know to stop when winning or losing tomorrow is always another day

Surprisingly even people do see about negative things about gambling but we do actually have those health benefits. lol

Increased social networking
It sharpens the mind
RELAXATION AND COMFORT
Stress reduction
Happiness

Dont know if these are really that indeed something that gamblers do able to feel on the time that they would really be dealing up with gambling
on which i do somehow agree on some points above like increased social networking an sharpens the mind but comfort and stress reduction
is something that questionable. Why? Losing money would be your primary experience to this and we know  that losing money isnt something
that could bring up happiness. 

It's possible to win in the short term but very unlikely to happen, many individuals that are gambling are losing money but can't stop gambling as they're addicted. The only health benefit of gambling that I know of is that it can make you happy when you win but many individual that are gambling aren't winning therefore that health benefit isn't getting to every one that's gambling. When gambling you have to know that you'll be more sad than happy as you'll lose more.

There are more health disadvantage from gambling than the benefits, gambling has alot of negative effects. When you're a gambler, you'll always be looking at that your phone screen gambling and it can affect your eyesight. We have gamblers that gave been addicted to gambling and spend hours on their phone screen gambling which they later in future have eye sight problems.

They want to win from gambling, so they focus on getting it. But the reality is that they will not be able to get it or will have difficulty getting it and experience many losses. Most people would think gambling is a quick way to get rich because by winning gambling games, they can earn a lot of money. But not many people can get a lot of money from gambling, but many of them lose. People must be aware of this and immediately change their thinking patterns again so as not to be trapped by their own thoughts, which can cause them to experience bankruptcy. When playing gambling, you have to understand the risks so you don't lose a lot, but you can also get entertainment from the gambling game.

    In my opinion, there are no health benefits of gambling. Gambling will ruin you financially and it also affect your health in a negative way. I know gamblers who are broke (and I mean broke, drowning in debts with no money for food or a roof over their head), depressed, have panic attacks and have no real friends or a stable relationship. The fact is, gambling is Not an advisable method for earning money. It is a fun way of spending money though. It is entertaining and has the benefit of possibly increasing your money. other forms of entertainment only drain your money. While the odds are low, it is possible to win in the short term.
   If you say benefits you may somehow be wrong just as you can't say what are the benefits of smoking. Everyone knows that it's either a win or lose situation. As almost everyone would say the house always wins. But this totally depends on what you are betting on. Gambling covers a lot of aspects from trading stocks down to sports betting. You must have a strategy to beat the odds. Gambling doesn't only mean betting on a 1500 odd game, it can also mean taking profits of 30 to 50% of investment daily and this is equally very profitable. So it solely depends on what you are betting on. You will surely see returns when you have a better betting mindset.

Everyone certainly knows that winning in gambling or whatever brings us health, because winning is always eagerly awaited by gamblers so it can change our mood or make things relaxed and calm in our minds. This will certainly influence the body to stay healthy, think and do the things it wants.

You need to know that it all depends on how the person does it, whether the person gambles just to have fun for a while to find entertainment or really to make a profit from gambling. In my opinion, if people gamble just to find temporary pleasure, they will definitely stop if they keep losing and it will not have an impact on their health condition. However, if they are really serious and looking for profit for themselves, of course when they lose they will definitely get hotter and more emotional to continue betting bigger and that can have a bad impact on their mental health.

I dont see the relevance or in talks about health benefits when it comes to gambling. Yes, we could really be able to feed up our leisure but its not something that could benefit it out but rather it would really be something that be destructive on the time that you do make yourself that become addicted. There are people who dont have that good self control towards gambling activity on which most of them do really ends up on being addicted rather than on enjoying up the game. This is why if you do find yourself that not good when it comes to emotions then it would be wise that you shouldn't really be getting involved with
gambling in the first place. This is why it would be always that best that you should really be that sensible on the things that you've been dealing with.

So it would be better that you should be focusing into other activities rather than making yourself forcing to play gambling even if you do know that you do hate on losing money.
This is where usually bad things do happen on the time that you would be chasing up your losses.

I don't think anybody gambles for the health benefits. I have never sat down and though of gambling as something that can benefit my health.
Also, I don't believe "helping us to take risk is a health benefit".
To me these as just excuses we give ourselves to gamble more, just like the people that tell themselves sex everyday is useful to the health.
There's no shame in saying you enjoy doing something for yourself as far as you're not breaking any laws, or hurting anyone while doing it.

We don't always have to justify everything with the excuse of it's health benefits.
There are people that eat food just to fill their stomach, they dont care about the healthy benefits, people like that still gamble. So how will a person like that care about the healthy benefits of gambling?

Gambling doesn't even help relive stress. Lol. How on earth does gambling relieve stress?

In gambling most people always focus on the positive part of it without regarding the negative part of gambling. All they always think of is gambling is a get rich quick scheme. And it is not because if gambling is a get rich quick scheme gambling would have been the only thing people will be doing. And most people that have such mindset always end up losing all their funds. And will end up being bankrupt. So in gambling always try to be cautious of the risk you're taking. And always know when to stop.

Stress comes along with that condition since we could not enjoy gambling if we are in weird situation where we want to bet more. That's why I don't see any health benefits on gambling in long run since if we are in situation where we are addicted to much on gambling for sure this will never be fun for us since every action we do can cause huge problem to us especially when we are out of money for sure we would find ways to get something to spend. What more worse with that is other people do crime like stealing its because their urge to gamble comes first and they can't think more clearly about the consequences of the actions they have done. That's why we should not think to much about it and just simply gamble only when we don't have any thing to do. Lucky we have this community since it can make us realize that addiction is really worse and we can see how bad the experiences of other people so we will not follow them.

The primary motivation for professional gamblers is indeed financial gain, but they don't gain the profits solely from the the game they won, but also from sponsors and other activities. For those who may not be able to secure profits, alternative reasons for gambling could include entertainment, social interaction, or the thrill of the experience. Sustained profitability might be challenging for everyone and that the outcome is often uncertain.

People who are unable to adapt their goals and continue chasing losses may indeed find themselves in a cycle of escalating bets in an attempt to recover previous losses. This can lead to significant financial consequences and other negative impacts on themself. Responsible gambling behaviors are having a limits setting, recognizing the entertainment value, and being aware of the potential risks. Gambling behavior could become problematic if Profits become the only goal to chase.

Addiction takes away the enjoyment when it comes to gambling. Many people don't realize they're heading down this path and might end up addicted if they can't control themselves. Gambling was initially created for fun, and it does have some health benefits. Unfortunately, today, some gamblers use it as a way to make a daily income. When they lose, frustration sets in, leading to addiction. They keep playing, hoping for a win. Personally, gambling helps me unwind after a long day at work. It relieves stress, and playing some online games makes me happy, ensuring I end my day on a positive note.

Not really, this only leads to something enjoyable in gambling, for example it can make you feel better but that doesn't mean it's beneficial for your health, the problem is that health also depends on other aspects, it can't be seen from the habit of gambling with a positive mindset, if asked you can eliminate it. stress may be true because I often gamble to relieve stress on weekends because work on weekdays is quite stressful.

Gambling at the weekend, I usually gamble to relieve the stress I get from my job, but it comes back to the goals of each gambler because there are those who gamble to make money and there are also those who gamble to have fun, I am one of those gamblers who want to have as much fun as possible. It's hard for other people to understand but that's how it feels when I relieve stress by gambling on weekends, so it's nothing strange. losing and winning is just part of gambling that we have to understand, that's all

The health importance of gambling as listed in the Op is very crucial in helping human life experience. Gambling offers more responsible characters to the players, but most people don't think of those, all they wonder about is making money out of gambling. This is not advisable for gamblers, because it's more like depending on one aspect of gambling and neglecting every other advantage of gambling. Making money the first priority and the main crucial reason why we gamble is not great in making a nice gambling experience. The purpose of gambling is to achieve success in life. And it has the knowledge capacity to offer such a reward to a gambler who is determined to master how gambling can be used to work in the outside world. A gambler who gambles for stress relief for instance, would receive it and would take the money spent during the process as his payment for the service.

The mental health we get outside gambling isn't it paid for? and the person wouldn't see it as wasted money.

But, people now worry about the money lost in gambling and go after it like a cheetah goes for its prey. This time it now sounds like a prey going for its predator. The reverse would be the case, instead of the gambler winning his money, he'd be having a bad time losing both the ones left in chasing for the lost ones. This confusion blinds gamblers a lot to think that they can't learn something else via gambling. Even some members would argue that gambling has no health benefits. Such people say this because of the mistakes they've made in gambling. It's nice for a gambler to learn to make money outside gambling, and then visit the casino for fun. When he's done playing for the day he can move ahead to his daily business. Hence, helping his productivity by being more calculative and knowing how to manage risks.

While winning can certainly have health benefits, such as boosting dopamine levels and reducing stress, it's important to note that these benefits may not be present when you're not winning. In fact, losing can often lead to feelings of disappointment, frustration, and even depression.

I am interested in knowing whether people who gamble frequently and responsibly experience any health benefits from their activity. I am particularly curious about the positive impact of gambling on their mental and emotional well-being, even when they are not winning. How often do you feel positive, even when you lose? Do you believe that gambling can relieve your stress, even when you are not winning?
