Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!!

[MWesterweele]

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.

Gambling for me is a good experience where we earn or we lose money in a bit of minute but i considered it the most about risking money and destroying our lives not sure about this but everyone lose in the long run of playing gambling and it make them so much addicted on it.

Gambling when becomes addiction to anyone it remains only thing to do for that person. What is sickness anything which controls your body and mind and doesn't let you think about anything else is sickness. Gambling is no different and leads addicted people to behave and do same. They loose will powers and mind stops thinking new things it is like a state of sickness.

That's right but this would only be applicable for  those who are only addicted to gambling which means that gambling it self is not a sickness. Same with other addictions like drugs, drugs alone isn't a sickness in fact it is use to cure a sick person but when people abuses it then they will be sick instead.

Gambling cannot really considered as a sickness cause gambling is not an attitude but gambling is a GAME. Addiction in gambling is considered as a sickness and yeah I think most of the time people become addicted in gambling because of their greediness.

The greed and the eagerness of winning a lot of money in less time makes them addicted of gambling and later on when they realize that it is not the right choice for what they were looking they consider it a sickness because of the loses they got into it.

But that is not a reason for us to consider that gambling is a sickness.
Yeah we are become greedy and we eager to get more money after we win in the game in gambling but that is not should be the reason to consider gambling is a sickness. for me, gambling is really just a game and we need to treat gambling as like that and not a sickness, addiction in gambling really consider a sickness.

Of course, considering it as sickness is just like considering yourself sick. We need to understand in the first place that gambling is a dangerous kind of fun, so if we will not play it responsibly, in the long run we will be having trouble doing it and might affect our life in a negative way.

Yes I agree with you, really dangerous kind of fun and really risky, so this kind of game are really to those who are mature enough to understand what should be the outcome of their game. Because for me, if you cannot handle yourself when you play this you will really get addicted in this.

In short if  you dont have strong  self control and a strong self awareness then for sure you would  easily get hooked  into  gambling addiction  and   its not really easy to  get away with this thing  especially when you are already engage on playing gambling  on daily basis thats why its somehow a sickness.

Well i think it is already called sickness, because people get ill/addicted to gambling and if someone gets addicted, their life becomes very bad as they lose lots of money

Gambling will never be considered as a sickness. Gambling is a game that you will do when you want to entertain yourself. And ADDICTION in gambling that will be considered as a sickness and not gambling itself.

Nope, gambling  can't be a sickness at all lol. At the first place it is made for people to enjoy and release some stress the problem there if you do not gamble for moderation then you really are sick

That's true, because gambling is really a game that can entertain us and for me that is not really a sickness. Sickness are cold, cough, flu or even addiction in gambling is a sickness, so for me addiction in gambling is a sickness and not "gambling".

Gambling is for fun. When you are not planning to be a professional gambler and spend most of your time gambling, then just play it for fun, period! Otherwise, your life will really be a miserable. Why? because the odds will always be against in your favor especially when you are just new to gambling and you don't have some good approach and strategies when gambling.

Gambling when becomes addiction to anyone it remains only thing to do for that person. What is sickness anything which controls your body and mind and doesn't let you think about anything else is sickness. Gambling is no different and leads addicted people to behave and do same. They loose will powers and mind stops thinking new things it is like a state of sickness.

You don't need doctors if you are addicted into gambling, what you need is that you need psychiatrist and other psychology experts to help you from being an addicted person into gambling. And for me the best physician for this type of sickness is God, you need to ask Him to help you to be healed out of that gambling sickness.

Exactly, and mostly an addicted person do not want to be treated because they never admitted to themselves that they are addicted, they just keep on thinking that they can manage the situation and they are big enough to that they know what they are doing, only the family can help I guess.

I don't think gambling should be considered a sickness....I think that it's a symptom of some other condition that just expresses itself in habitual gambling.  Like having a nagging wife.  But, I may be in denial because I love gambling!  I don't do bad because I've acquired the skills necessary to compete on the poker table....but I do spend a great deal of time on the felt....but, mostly to stay away from my grumpy wife because I really don't need the money anymore!

True, there are many drugs that are used to treat different diseases and when used appropriately, those drugs help people, but when they are abused by the people and are used for something besides the reasons they were created then that is the moment a problem like drug addiction appears.

but there a lot of people claim themselves broke because gambling.

i know some people like you might will just deny on this statement saying gambling are just a sickness , you just gamble for the sake of fun and in the name of skills only for most regular poker player. still people like you have less number than people who think gambling are a sickness.

Then if you don't think that gambling addiction is not a sickness then you can consider that as worst than syndrome. I guess that is the most supreme type of sickness.

But there are also good types of addiction in gambling if you are making it your living then that is not sickness because it makes you to survive a day.

Just like those professional poker players they are competing in tournaments and earning millions of dollars.

In gambling you only win from the start then you lose whenever you win a certain amount.

Gambling can be addicted like drugs people using too if they loossing money on it ofcourse gambling do also people they don't think that fast when it comes on gambling but when it comes to money they think as 123 people are greedy of wealth and maybe soon they lose everything they have.

the addicted in gambling can ruin everything we have and we can loss all we have. but i don't think gambling as a sickness, maybe its like an bad habit that many people getting attract with gambling and its really serious problem and its need to be cure by helping from other people.

its really bad when you start losing everything you have and you keep thinking about it, wrecking your life and putting away everything that you have because of that addiction i think you are correct it is not a sickness that you need to take medicines but an habit that is needed to be removed inside your mind.

i think it depend on your way of playing gambling, if you are playing gambling without any sense and without any strategy have no limit for investing  money in gambling then you can surely consider it as sickness, but if you are playing gambling with a plan then gambling can be consider as a healthy activity and not a sickness.

Though with plan gambling won't be boring and won't be too much losing, I still don't think that it is a "HEALTHY ACTIVITY"... You will sit a lot of time in front of your computer, though there's a less frustration about your bet, but the fact that you will sit a lot, that would make you prone to disease... Gambling won't be a sickness if you bet in it without using your hard earned money or you do not risk anything in it..
