So, is it wrong to be too addicted to gambling? how can it be control or how can one manage gambling?

We have been discussing the harmful effects of gambling so I'm sure the majority will agree that gambling addiction is not right and it should be avoided at all costs because it ruins lives and finances.

When you're addicted to gambling and you want a way out your only chance is to get professional help because they are the only people who can give you the right advice laid out the right plan, advice alone will not do it, you must stop the symptoms and no will power can do that, you should be monitored by a competent professional whose specialty is to cure gambling addiction.
It may be costly but the therapy is for long-term and guaranteed to stop addiction.

Trust the process, imbibe consistency
The straight answer is that gambling addiction, just like every other addictions, is bad and a terrible situation to be in. You cannot be addicted to anything and do it well without abusing it which will later turn against you to steal your peace, your joy and sometimes your good relationship with people. Addiction can make an individual do things they never would have done, like stealing, telling lies, cheating and other horrible things. On no account should you allow yourself to be addicted to anything, not drinking nor smoking and definitely not gambling. Whenever you noticed that you no longer have rest of mind when you don't gamble, start reducing your participation in gambling because you are losing control of yourself. If money is your motivation and you sense some desperation, the best is to get other sources of funds and only consider gambling for passive income as it should be.

Not Your Keys, Not Your Bitcoin
Gambling addiction is process in which an individual cannot control their urge in gambling even when they tend to lose. They are willing to sacrifice their most valuable assets with the hope of winning. A story was told of a young man in my community who used his only son for gambling because he was so addicted that he can't do without gambling in a day. he can do anything when it comes to gambling. I also know people who are wealthy today through gambling. So, is it wrong to be too addicted to gambling? how can it be control or how can one manage gambling?

I'm not sure if addiction is beneficial to in anyways, there must be some health concern when you can't do without something. Even a job you have passion for should have limit, where you do hangout frequently should have a limited and so does gambling too, you can't be having gambling thought on your mind always when you have other things you can do with your life, it is going to be emotionally and psychological draining to be addicted to gambling, it's not good whether it's profitable or not.

There are some gamblers that can't do a day without gambling, they see gambling as their job and only way to make money which they are good in doing but I haven't see one who is addicted to gambling, they are morr addicted to playing PES and Fifa games when you visit their hub than gambling all days. These are people I know that gamble all the time and has made quality money from gambling and has never been addicted or show any form of addiction. Addiction is addiction and it's bad.

I am interested to know which one is wealthy through gambling except casino owners as beside them I don't know anyone else.The addiction is absolutely wrong as addiction only brings misery and more misery and as I said I know no one which was addicted and made a wealth out of gambling addiction.Sacrificing your only son is the most iconic pinnacle of stupidity when it comes to human logic yet I don't blame that much this guy although the fault was all his for the simple reason that gambling addiction leaves no room to the healthy logic or cold headed thinking.

If I were in power in the government such persons that are known that have done such horrible things are to get arrested and put to jail,this way we do two goods to the community,one stupid gestures are spared and second in jail they may be forget about gambling.

The wrong part is when you lose money that you need, things like the house rent money, or the money for food. And is hard to control an addiction, the best way to control it is by staying away from the casinos.

It's not wrong to being ugly, drunk everyday, smoking etc, as long as you're rich.

It's not wrong if you can't do anything in this world, as long as you're rich, you can ask anyone to do anything for you.
Even rich users can lose it all with gambling, they need some self-control. So, if you are reach you can do anything except one thing and that thing is to lose it all because, at that moment you will lose all your rich privileges.

What kind of question is this? Is there even a right thing of "addiction"?
Just remember when Tiger Woods declared himself addicted to sex, maybe that's a good addiction, lol.

@Gladiator$ I see you have mentioned knowing people who are wealthy as a result of gambling, and this is where the problem could be coming from as you have married success with gambling and mistaking it for addiction!!

Here is the reality, when it comes to gambling not everyone will be successful with it ,and when someone is successful from gambling this does not mean they are addicts.. definitely not, it means they are smarter at what they do which has allowed them to be profitable..like they say work smarter not harder Wink !!

Naturally whenever someone talks of addiction this should mean self-control doesn't exist anymore and this is creating other problems to the point of close friends and family tend to be negatively affected by this , which automatically makes addiction wrong!!

Addiction to gambling is not good because the more you gamble the more you are vulnerable to losing more amount of money. Most gamblers are not addicted in a way they are making money, they are addicted in a way that they are losing money. A good evidence that a gambler is likely to lose more is because the gambling sites are getting richer and making money from people and not the other way around. It is wrong to be addicted because addiction is not good.

Quote
Addiction is defined as a compulsive, chronic, physiological or psychological need for a habit-forming substance, behavior, or activity that has harmful physical, psychological, or social effects.

This is what I have searched on the web. Especially when it's attached with "Gambling" that's automatically wrong because it will be harmful especially in the long run. Obsessiveness over something wouldn't be alright with anything and it's going to have consequences.

Why you got to ask this kind of question? It's common sense already that it's going to be bad for the person, I don't get the point of asking this question, there's no moral dilemma to discuss in all of this, you're not really getting any kind of worthy discussion because the answers already obvious. Maybe if we're talking about perspectives here, there's some discussions like is gambling addiction good in the eyes of the gambling businesses or something like that because you can't really say outright that it's good for them because they're still a law abiding business right?

"Cannot control."
When something is uncontrolled, do you think it is right or wrong?
It's called abuse. When something is abused it becomes wrong. Drugs, alcohol, weed, smoke, or whatever habit there is, when used in a way where the user cannot be controlled anymore then something is wrong.
Why is gambling addiction not good for us? Because the truth still exist that we cannot win against the house. What does that mean? Anything we do, we will lose in some way either it's now or in the future in case you win now.
Gambling businesses are growing in this era because there's truly money in it. I don't think they can go bankrupt even if someone hit a big winner and get out. The gambling site will probably just take it all back from other users.

Any forms of addiction would be considered bad. Why? Anything which is excessive then it would be considered to be not good. This is why its better that you should really be avoiding yourself
on getting addicted on which it wont really be just that limited to gambling alone but also in other forms of addiction too. Everything which is excess is bad so it would really be that common sense
on how you would really be dealing with things. Gamble with fun and you wont really be able to experience issues and problems because at the moment that you would be going above with your limits
then this is where issues would really be happening. This is why it would really be better that you should really know about your limitation because this is the issue that you are facing into.

Just like what people nowadays said, as long as you make money, you did nothing wrong.

It's not wrong to get addicted to gambling, as long as you're making money instead of losing.

It's not wrong to being ugly, drunk everyday, smoking etc, as long as you're rich.

It's not wrong if you can't do anything in this world, as long as you're rich, you can ask anyone to do anything for you.

So, is it wrong to be too addicted to gambling?
There is nothing like too addicted, addiction is addiction and from your story above you have seen the consequences of addiction, it can make you do unimaginable things to satisfy your gamble urge to make profit. Addiction can lead to suicide. Addiction destroys one future, if he does not help himself out of addiction.

how can it be control or how can one manage gambling?
Gamble with the amount that you can afford to lose and don't chase your losses. See gambling as a means of entertainment and only gamble for fun. You should also have a gamble budget and time limit on your gambling activities in order to discipline yourself.

So, is it wrong to be too addicted to gambling?
If you are thinking of success in life, then it is not right to be addicted to gamble. If you love your health and progress in life, it is not right to be addicted to gambling.

how can it be control or how can one manage gambling?
Make use of 1% of your weekly income on gambling is advised. I go up to 5% which I see as not bad. Going more than that can lead to addiction and waste of money. If the addict can not control it, he needs rehabilitation.
