People are greedy and wish to become a millionaire overnight like in fairy-tales. If that was really the case then so many people would not study and work hard in order to earn money to live - everyone would flock at casinos and become millionaires one by one. The casinos are not giving away money for free. They are running a business and they are the real profit makers.

And players can not always expect getting rich in gambling that easily cause gambling can only ruined you or can make your life miserable when you can not control you emotions and greed at the same time, because when these things occur to you, you can not simply just say to your self you can stop from betting if you emotions will apply to you, and some people are always like that and I am not mentioning all gamblers there are just few like that!

Gambling captivate so many people, and it has to attain to the level drugs. This hobby is not only ruining the man and his family, but also psychologically traumatic for the player.

No, not like drugs, there is a difference between the two addiction... Drugs destroy your brain, drain it til you are almost like a dumb up to being an imbecile... Though both addiction can be cure thru rehabilitation, the damage that drugs has made to your brain will be permanent...  Smiley
Yes these two addictions are completely diffetent from each other. Right drugs make you mad,the mind and whole body destroys slowly from the inside.
It takes all your money as well as health at the same time.And in gambling tthere are people who do it for fun but i dont advice anyone to take drugs for fun.

Well it is better if you are going to be addicted with gambling rather than you are going to get addicted with drugs. But I think that is going to be associated if you are not going to be a responsible gambler then you are going to become an addicted drug user too. As I have watched in a movie, those addicted gamblers are also using illegal drugs.
It will both result to destroying your life, it is never good that you will be addicted in any of them if you have a choice. But when you are addicted with gambling the worst effect is you will be living in the street as there is a big chances that you will go bankrupt and loss your job.

Seeing a lot of my friends with their experiences, gambling is the most chaotic addiction rather than drugs. They tend to spend a lot of money in gambling while in drugs just take a pill and maybe in hours they will sleep. Very far with experiences in gambling, there will be sleepless nights, the adventure to find a friend who can lend you some money and other stuffs that they sell just to gain money for another gambling havoc.

That is the extreme case of gambling addiction. I am a gambler and I don't go up to a situation where I sell things to use for gambling. I don't chase friends to ask for money and all that stuff. I only gamble a money that I can afford to lose.
Yes, it was the worst effects of addiction to gambling and it is very detrimental and affect our lives. It had to be stopped immediately because it is very bad. Should we gamble with self-control, because it would avoid the addiction of gambling.

More people now are becoming addicted for many reason i think the one reason why their being addicted in gambling is the need of money. Gambling is the best way you can grown your money if you have luck your capital can be multiply it. But if their lost they want to gamble again because they want get back the lost money.

That is where the difference between a hobby and a problem are.  If the hobby is ruining the mans life as he/she knows it, then it is an addiction and should not be touched.  You can no call an addiction a hobby and you need to know the difference between the two!  For some people it is hard to tell the difference.
Gambling could be a hobby but it is an expensive hobby as most of the time we loses. But if you can manage your loses you will gain more happiness compared to the amount you spend.

Expensive hobby or addictive hobby? Because to have that hobby is kind of risky thing. And how to manage your loss by gambling? There is no solid strategy that will keep you on getting profit all the time though, although huge amount will have chance to lose too

addiction on drugs and addiction on gambling is a different story  they may the same on the result  on lossing money in the end  and would  wreck your life but the effect  on  drugs would be  more severe  compared to gambling because same as others said it would destroy also your health which is  very important to us. You would be a useless person if you are completely disabled.

Whatever you called it but the two are a very serious disease, when you are addicted in gambling you also act so dumb that you can gamble any amount even if you cannot afford to lose that money anymore, the worst thing is it will not just destroy your life but also the life of your love ones.

You could still recover from those down moments as your brain is not damaged by gambling, but with drugs, for sure there is... When you were overdosed with prohibited drugs it is possible that you will be more like with ALS and that means drugs physically it could damage you...  Smiley

Actually, usually you win 95-99% of the times. But when you're winning you have to be clever and stop. Smiley

However you can also have bad luck and be part of the 1-5% losing bets.

And for the family.

People usually forget how much the family suffers in these situations. They should also take the help of support groups so they can get support from other families in the same situation, as well as professionals.

I had reached some problem and my family helped me to get out from gambling, it were a hard thing to do as i believed i could stay at home and earning well with forex, and recently with trading of altcoins. The prizes, the pots value makes anyone believe they will be able to get it spending less.
