I would not say that you win only I. The beginning in gambling. It is not like that at all. It sounds like they get you to win to make you addicted and continue to play. Gambling is addiction and nobody will argue about this. But it is human's fault. Cause it is in our nature to wear pink glasses and expect that soon we will hit jack pot and be rich.

Exactly, we, humans always get addicted of something when we see any profit at starting eventhough we lose everything later on but we still does not stop and expect to win big amounts and that makes us lose all the time.
That's true, I heard a lot of story just like that and mostly, gamblers are have the same story but of course not all of us buy most of us really getting addicted because of that scenario. They don't know how to have self-control and how to control their greediness.

Gambling, just like any other things in life, when done in excessive way, is already bad and can be considered as a sickness. However, if you just gamble for fun and moderately, which is by the way gambling is designed at the very beginning - for entertainment, then your are not sick. The only time it is bad is when you become too much addicted to it that you already spend money that you cannot afford to lose.
Gambling can't be considered as a sickness as it is not viral, I watched poker online and I considered it entertaining rather than some kind of form of money making. Also gambling is treatable without taking any drug you can be treated just by family, friends , or rehab.

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.
People should know for them selves if they want to gamble or not most of them are old enough to make there own choices.
But I understand you and know why you consider it as sickness.

If you re able to control how much money you spend on gambling then you should be good, the people that do now know this are getting in to trouble.
So learn how to control your self and your money then you should be fine.

if you can control buddy so im with you but considering the lust that keeps us trying to win back our loses is the main thing that's needed to be cure, inside our mind we are always saying that its okay we are just having some fun and the money we lost is just nothing but in back of that they are still something that keeps us thinking to try it again and again to win it back and try to win some more, in that case i can say that self control cant be done without asking for some help to convert your attention and to move away from addiction.

Those people who think gambling is a money making a machine for them gambling should be considered as sickness. But those who play gambling just for fun and entertainment they will get relief from their daily stress. I will play just for time pass, and it will give good relief to my mind.

But even the people who are playing gambling for the purpose of entertainment will get addictions after long stay with gambling, in this time we can consider gambling as a sickness even their approach was different from other people who are gambling for making income.

I like to say gambling is overall a social sickness, which affects of a social activities and personal life too.

You are treating this subject as if anyone that gambles once will get addicted to it and that is not true, you are treating gambling the same way as drugs and they are not the same.

Are there some persons that got addicted to gambling when at first they gambled for fun? Yes
Does everyone that has gambled for fun become addicted to gambling? No

They are not the same but gambling addiction is the worst thing than drugs. because if you will addicted in gambling you will lose a lot of money that can bring your self from rich to be poor so always check it and better to stay away in gambling.. or stop gambling no future in gambling..

except when you win, of course.

most people will lose and some will lose everything and more, but they will be only a few that we could call sick, but we can't generalize and say that gambling = addiction

Gambling IS considered a sickness and gambling addiction is a known type of gambling and there are help-groups and facilities to treat people, so it's already known as a sickness, Some people are not addicted and just play for fun but allot are feeling compelled to play.

Gambling is a sickness if you are doing it wrong but if you are just doing it on a normal way that is not for the profit.
Gambling is risky and you should never do it for the profit.

I agree fully to do, if you are doing it on a wrong way and pumping money into it it can be considered as a sickness, if you are just doing it for the enjoyment its not wrong at all.
It can even be good because its not wrong to do this sometimes honestly.

It is not just a sickness if you are not able to cure that and control your addiction in gambling. I am considering it as a syndrome that is hard to be cured.

So if you are going to have gambling syndrome then you need to be counsel in able to stop that addiction because if you are not going to stop that.

Worst case is going to happen to you that you are maybe able to sell all your properties if you are not going to heal that syndrome.

Gambling is not a real sickness, its just that people are saying they sick from it because they are simply addicted, its mostly just a state of mind.
Gambling can also be fun and not addicted, if you enjoy it, there is nothing wrong with doing it so now and than people!

I agree with you. Casual gambling for fun isn't bad at all. If you allow yourself to get addicted, then that's on you. You got yourself into it, figure out how to snap out of it. How many lives have been ruined by gambling is not new to us. Casinos and gambling houses, online or on site are all there to attract us to try our luck. It's up to us if we give in to that temptation and get addicted to it.

Yeah it is definitely a risky game,

It is not like you are always winning at start of it,
Sometimes everything is based on the luck of the gambler,

That is why if you want to win more than what you can lose,
then play those games that requires analytical skills, and a bit of luck, just like poker or other card games.

I complete agree with you  , those type of addictions  have difference  to each other although  they are considered  as the word "addiction"  but  completely different. Gambling addiction would somehow wreck your life in terms of financial and  in Drug addiction it would completely  destroys your life not only  on financial  but also it would  heavily affect your  body  and also to the  relations on your family and  in your relatives which is  really devastating. Gambling sickness is an emotion which you pursue to play gambling no matter what.

no i do not thing so that to consider gambling as sickness, i think gambling is not sickness but a good way of refreshment and  making fun. but it is also a fact that if you are playing gambling for making money and you have no proper  strategy for your gambling, then iti s really sickness.
