Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!!

[Mr. Big]

Gambling is not a sickness but a decease that ruins someone lives...
Too much gambling makes a person do bad habits by not being able to do what he have to do as a normal person...
So if you have gambling addiction you better need some help...

Anything that is too much may be harmful , so we better have control and as much as possible tries to have other hobbies. Hobbies that are more profitable and can enjoy with many.

Not maybe, but totally,  all that are too much are bad, and gambling is not an exception to that, though I don't consider it as sickness when done from free bets and giveaways and tips, but when you are already investing on your bankroll and you feel like you are optimistic about your action, then you are sick.,.

Hobby and fun can be done and happen even without spending a penny.,,

Yes its considered as a sickness if you are addicted in one thing its confirmed you have sick. Because you don't want to stop it and you can not stop thinking of it. Its causing a stress to you and you want to go through this again till you see the result of what you doing. Avoid gambling to be able to make a good time and not worry about it.

before we are getting late to going into deep in gambling, we need to control ourself when we playing gambling and if you do with right then i am sure that you will not thinking that gambling is sickness and only thinking that playing gambling is another fun activity in your spare time and not using gambling as the source to make money.

It is rather really difficult to control your emotions.It is easy to preach what is to be done and how to manage your bank roll and stuffs like that but once you are fully invested in it then it becomes an addiction and that is when the problem arises and hope it wont be a sickness.

If things happen as quoted then it's OK and when things happen in the opposite side everything goes wrong. On loss everyone tries to regain the loss. This will make him addict and become sick.

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 is just an action by an individual and it isn't considered as a sickness but addiction is and it is also a mental disorder I guess, as long as it is bringing people fun and satisfaction they usually can't notice themselves whether they are already addicted to it or not although they are almost playing all the time until they have lost so much and they will be having a hard time to stop because this will only results to them being stressed and frustrated .

the only thing that makes gambling becomes an addiction is a disease. We can not call it a disease if someone could control himself when gambling. But gambling is worth mentioning if the disease already mastered one's gambling. So it all depends on how you treat gambling.

[Dr.Osh]

maybe it would really be regarded as sickness when it makes people become stressed, or even crazy. yeah, but, anyone has the right to think about gambling. gambling is a choice, like any responses of people, if it's your hobby, even though it was considered a sickness, it will not make you stop to play.

I cannot deny that gambling is so addictive for everybody, it is also too risky of course. As a gambler sometime, its just came into my mind that with a small amount I have in the gambling site I will become a millionaire. Which is only an illusion for me, Lol. I guess some of the gambler are also illusionary.

It can be considered a sickness if a person could not control himself if his gambling activities. More reasons affecting the lives of the one who gamble is time for his family, relationship and much more is budget that is intended for his family. Those were the part of common problems that linked to gambling problem which we can considered sickness.

Gambling is not a choice it is a game!  and it is far from sickness (just pick up your dictionary or search it in google for the meaning of these two words..  Gambling addiction is sickeness that needed to be rehabilitated and controled. It is uncurable disease (gambling addiction) because it can come back anytime.

well googling for the meaning of it would be taking it a bit shallowly. Gambling can cause sickness much like smoking a cigarette can cause cancer. We don't blame the cigarette but the person's uncontrolled used of it. Gambling can be beneficial if utilized correctly and with control. Aside from time to time winnings, it relazes and releases stress. But like anything that is done in excess, addiction would be the cause of all your gambling woes

Anything being abused is not good.  Even eating too much food is not healthy and make one person sick.  So following the definition of OP, then eating food is sickness which is not logical and make no sense.  A proper wording should be expected to make what OP means have more sense.  In this case, gambling as sickness makes no sense too.  It makes more sense if OP said that gambling is a vice than saying that it is sickness.

Gambling is no sickness, it's actually a therapy for the poor and people in financial crisis but if you gamble just in luck and with all your bankroll then it might get you sick because just like every trade you must learn the basic rudiments of gambling before you start.

Man did I read it right? A therapy? That's nuts man, I don't even consider gambling as a medicine to those poor people. It's a total error in the mind of those people that gambling is the way for their rise. And instead of solving their financial crisis and ease the pain for being included with it, they are just keep on dragging themselves into the hole.

I guess this guy does not really gamble in real life, we who are in actual situation will understand that gambling is never a therapy for the poor to help their financial crisis, in fact it will make their poorer as they will only decide in their emotion. Gambling is a game for the rich people if you want to enjoy but when you are poor, do not consider gambling as your first option to in making money, you will not gonna appreciate the outcome.

I don't know how he attain to say that gambling is such a kind of therapy. I'm thinking for so many times on how and what way we can consider gambling as a therapy. He really sees gambling as a opposite type of sickness, instead of thinking that it's a therapy there's no doubt that gambling will always be a type of sickness for real.

That's a weird way to say that it's somehow a therapy. I think it's also contradicting because gambling could cause a disorder in one's self. Disorder in which one is not able to function well enough, and that's not appropriate for the society. You won't receive the right care if you don't address it correctly.

Truly it's a weird thing and wherever angles you are going to look at it. That isn't going to make sense. Most of the time gambling will always give us an headache and that's a sickness where you will use your money for gambling and losing. And if you lose, it's another headache, where human nature's attitude that acceptance of defeat is hard.

Gambling is sickness but can be a medicine to those want to relief their stress , my friend are stressful but now he is addicted on gambling that everytime he had money he always want is to gambling all day and even if he lose that fine to him all he wanted is after he gambled a smile on his face is bigger.

Gambling could increase the stress if you are loosing money then even the blood pressure increases.It not true that people are using gambling as a stress reliever but my opinion might change when you are wagging small amount of money. I do know how it feels like to roll with a big balance .

Gambling does increase lot of stress as people will lose in starting so they get stress and then when they finally start getting some profit they get exicted and finally at one point they decide to put all in and pf course most of the time in these situations most people lose and then they start getting lot's of stress on how can tbey recover this loss and then they invest again and keep building their losses.

[nicolecan13]

Gambling ofcourse is sometimes considered as sickness if you are addicted on it because when you start gambling and been addicted you can't stop it anymore until you loose everything and sometimes people will do everything, become thief, become a killer just to have money for them to gamble.

majority yes because most gamblers really can't control emotion so instead of thinking to quit they rather go back and keep chasing their loses trying to win back and its very difficult whatever games you are into, its really a game of luck better to go with some games that you understand so you will able to assess and start controlling loses and build some earnings.

In this part it is the addiction and not gambling that is considered as sickness.  Gambling is just a trigger device to make you addicted or shall I say sick.  Another example I can say is, can you consider smoking cigaret a sickness?  Lol of course no, it is the cigaret addiction, and the effect of smoking that is what we called disease.  But smoking were never a sickness but a vice.  So how can be a gambling a sickness and not smoking?

As mentioned many times before, addiction is the result of our action, in dealing with gambling. Though I do not consider gambling as sickness, I do believe that it is a tool that leads us in wrong path if the addiction is  not handled properly.

Gambling is only for people who are aware of what they are doing and knows what their limit is.

People who enter into gambling with the aim of making money is close to addiction because they will be frustrated when times they losing streak will strike. It's not only important that we are willing to take risk but also we need to know the possible negative effect if we do it out of our control.
With that said, don't think that gambling is sickness since we will not have a bad experience if we will are being responsible while we are gambling.

You give us very good example, But when any gambler became addicted, because of gambling. Just imagine, gambling is not here than definitely no one be addicted person. So accept it the main reason to become addicted, that is gambling.
But on the other hand, gambling give us fun, if we use gambling like a good player than gambling can't sickness or addiction for us.

but gambling make people addicted which can be called as sickness. but in fact not every gambler can be consider as sick, because there are so many people who are addicted to gambling but still they play gambling in a limit which protect them from a big lost. to me i am also addicted to gambling because i cannot stop myself from playing gambling but still i try my best to play with a littl amount of bitcoin on daily basis and that is the reason that i am playing gambling for a long long time.
