Gambling alone is not wrong. It is only wrong if you are addicted.
Any addiction of something is considered a sickness. Seeking help is necessary if you are addicted to something.
yeah and that help one can get from is only rehab as there they will enjoy and learn how to leave that addiction slowly but we all have to play only for fun so we can be very safe while gambling and with only balance that you afford to lose !!

Being an addict gambler is the problem, The thing here is its really a sickness, because too much of anything is not good, and in gambling addiction, you are obsessed with it already that you may already do wrong things, just to do it.

Yes gambling addiction can be really very bad. You can say it is worst than sickness of anything if you are addicted to gambling.

Well, alcoholism is considered a sickness, so I could agree with this. But just as with drinking alcohol, if you don't let it consume your life(some of us have that type of control, surprising, which is probably why it's legal), then it's okay.
Just because I gamble, doesn't mean I'm sick, but I'm not betting my life away either.
But many gamblers bet their life's earning in gambling and got their life sicked thereafter. That is the reason we are spreading out the awareness how gambling could spoil your life similar to a disease. Gambling is more dangerous than alcoholism or any other bad habits. Because, it would spoil you and your family happiness. That is the reason sometimes we do call gambling as a social sickness.

Sickess is just to strong word. With addiction I can agrree but with sickness not. But the truth is that it can become a big problem if you don't keep it under control and it can turn your life upside down.

Gambling can be addictive in much the same way that food, pornography, video games or drugs can be. However I don't consider any of those "sicknesses." Certainly not food for a start. Gambling is obviously dangerous if you have poor self control or otherwise addictive tendencies but this does not mean it is a "sickness." Addiction to gambling is a serious problem but this does not rule out the rest of us from respecting and enjoying it.
Your view here is rather outdated and regressive I must say.

Gamblers will only consider gambling as sickness when they experience bankruptcy in gambling or have ruin their life in gambling but more use who just love to play it and get entertain it will never be a sickness, instead it can give us more energy after relaxing.

Lack of self-control is a sickness. Gambling is an opportunity.

I am sorry but I really don't see that gambling is an opportunity, I think it is only the opportunity on the other way around and the opportunity is only for the gamblers who own the house and it is not for us the gamblers as we are just destined to lose our money in gambling.

Actually alcoholism at certain point can be medically diagnosed, as it will leave mark on your body (mainly destroyed liver leading to cirrhosis) but many other visible to the naked eye symptoms can be easily spotted. With gambling you don't have any apparent signs of you being addicted. It is all in your head, this is the worse kind of addiction to prove that it is really a sickness.

That is a good move, gamble only in games where house advantage if love to be entertain but if you feel like you are going to get serious with getting real money in gambling you should focus on games that would give you a good advantage to win by using your skills to it.

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.
I disagree if we generalized gambling as a sickness.. It is if we gamble carelessly with all of the money we have in the bank.. but if we play only for fun and under controlled bankroll and sessions, it would not create big impact into our life if we lose. But if we win big out of those sessions, then it will create big impact for the better. We just need to control our emotions and only celebrate right after we cashout. When betting, just follow systems and sessions - try harder to get rid of that emotions and just reserved it if on profit and just cashout. With emotions come greed - better practice to be emotionless when betting and let your system do the work.

Only the professionals can do gambling without emotion and they have already master that as you cannot become professionals directly. I believe with proper control although we are losing we can still enjoy gambling in general and that would help us to relax for awhile while gambling.

I understand. I don't gamble against the house. I only gamble against other people (over the internet), and I look for opportunities. Looking at it from a different angle, gambling is an opportunity, in a way that you CAN be relieved of stress. Just feel the game. Play smart, have fun. That's all there is to it, don't take it personally if you lose since you gambled, of course there is the risk to lose.

I disagree it is not a sickness it is just someone being a risk taker with the believe that the higher the higher the returns. They also believe in chance that its the sole determinant of whether they will lose or win as this cannot be said of sickness. So its not sickness rather its a daring... My 2cents... It is just a game of guess, you have to be lucky in order to win. There is really no method to win when the odds are against us, we just have to accept it and play gambling for fun. That is true that the risk is high and same with the reward so if you don't want to take risk don't do gambling. That's true but some of the gambling games need some strategy for you to win but in ONLINE gambling sites i think this is really more on luck. Guessing is number 1 rule in terms of luck to play gambling and what if you are not lucky enough of what you guess every time you play, you cannot win in that game even though you really want to win.
