I am not really a gambler but I heard about people who can't quit it and keep losing lots of money. Do you think the attitude to gambling addiction should be the same as to drug addiction?
Should the government forbid gambling and treat somehow those who are addicted?
Or maybe it should be left up to an adult? I mean, should people decide on their own whether they need to gamble or not.
What do you think?
In my opinion its like a drug addiction but It easy to cure that addiction unlike drug addiction.According to my source if you feel fun and continuous playing and playing its a consider as a first symptoms but it can control depend on that person.
no i do not think so. gambling is not addiction is not like drug addiction, there is a big difference between the two. to me if you are addicted to gambling but you do gambling in a limit or just manage it from your pocket money there it is not harmful but if you are doing gambling using most of your pocket money then it is not right and my be more worst than drug addiction.

What I may infer from the replies is that mostly people think gambling is a disease, but it is easier to cure it than drug addiction. I understand that drugs influence human organism physically, so they really cause some changes in it. Gambling doesn't influence people in such a way. But it still influences minds, doesn't it? A person feels like he/she can win and keeps losing. Maybe, drugs change the mind even less than gambling, because they rather effect the body. Then what is more harmful: mental addiction or physical one?
But many people are saying that its more worst to be addicted in gambling site.. than drugs.
But honestly for me drugs is most worst for me that can affect to your life.. Gambling is not really a decease its just a term that its hard to cure..
We are not all the same but there is other people that its hard to control them to prevent their addiction in gambling..

i don't know what its the worst, but i think both is really worst to be addicted and we should not be on that situations because its really dangerous for our life. many people addicting in drugs and gambling and they get trouble to stop and cure their bad habits.

addiction from gambling is same such as drugs addiction because for long term it would have bad affect for your brains and i think some countries already banning gambling because they do not want their society ruin their own life and became an addicted


Addiction of anything make situation worse and when anybody got addicted than he has no way left there, I also than we call it disease when we want to play on gambling at any cost, but for me it's not a disease as I am playing comfortable and know my limit about this.

in fact addiction is a disease, so it must be healed. but it's a different story if you can control yourself and play comfortably for having fun, means you are not gambling addiction.

Nah people who just play gamble every day are addicted on gambling website where they gonna make profit or lose their money always there are two type of people the one who played smart and the one who played greedy and there are two benefits of that of course if you play in smart way then you can win profit and if you play greedy you know what the result is.
nothing can do by the government but they can limiting people madness in gambling by set some rules.
people who are gamble and causing something dangerous like a suicide you can call it a disease.
gambling are built for business.
but people make it serious as an income source which it's wrong !

This is the same as asking if drinking alcohol is a disease or not. Or if doing anything that can be potentially addictive should be considered a disease. As you should see, this makes absolutely no sense and is a flawed concept. The disease is only a disease if it makes the person's life a mess. Not everyone suffers from gambling addiction.

Actually gambling is not bad thing, it is really enjoyable and good thing but only when you never become addictive and play it only for game, But when we lose that point and we want mustly earn from gambling and play it in daily routine life than it become addictive for us. I am saying it because i am gambler but i am not addicted.

if addicted to drugs they will get the healing from the government, but gambling addiction will only go to jail, because the government in my country is forbid gambling. Gambling knows no adults, even most adults who gamble are addicted same when it is difficult to recover.

Addiction to gambling and drugs I think the same. Because a person who is addicted to gambling can do unlawful things such as stealing to get money and used for betting. The government forbids people to gamble because it's one of the reasons because it can be very dangerous and including a prohibited act. Need guidance if about a man already very severe addiction in gambling.

It's always different for some people as based on their personal experience and everyone have their own opinions about this, in case of addiction nothing can be worse more than gambling, but I think if we are going with some limit than it should be fine there.

No I do not think you are right about this, gambling is mostly for a short time period addicted and after that stops, with drugs its a whole other story if you are asking me.
Drugs are bad for your health and its also that you need more money for it most of the times.
Gambling addiction does not have to cost a lot but you can be still addicted to it, gambling addiction is also something the most people will have for a short time and than get over it.

I don't think gambling addiction is considered a disease because if it is, then gambling addicts should have just taken medicines to become no longer addicted to it. Gambling addiction is on your mind, only discipline and control with the help of the people around you can free you from your addiction. People might be able to explain this using science but focusing your addiction into something else might significantly help.
maybe it is not a disease but a psychological problem that's moving around our mind so we needed self control to cure it free our mind and take time to look for something that will keep us busy.

If you have self control it will easy for you leave gambling mostly when your lost big amount it will not good to continue after loosing so much money,

Having self control is the most important thing when you  play gambling since if you lack with this discipline you would definitely easily got hooked on gambling addiction which is really a thing that could be  hard to remove in the long run and  possibly wrecked  your own life if you intend to do it in a long   period of time and for sure many would really got affected,
