I Don't think so cause gambling won't even kill you or damage you physically but it can ruin your life . Drug Addiction is a completely another level than gambling addiction which has a higher chance of getting cured.

i think it can be said as a disease,its like drug addiction or alcohol addiction, but it can be cure, forbidding gambling is not going to be effective, as we can see there is a lot way to surpass the rules, for example using vpn, so i think the right thing to do is to cure the gambler, this need support and cooperation from family and friends
No is not a disease you are crazy, I think that its just something in your life, most people are doing it for a period but after a while stop with it. Gambling ruins a lot but its for sure not a disease otherwise it was forbidden in a lot more country's.

Even gambling is so bad way to spend life with it but it's not a disease anymore from my opinion because if we have self control than easily can give up there, it's not much dangerous as compare with addiction of drugs and alcohol, so that I am quite sure if we do it for fun than it's not a disease.

It's based on any person personal experience with gambling if someone want to get rich by overnight than it's worst than disease for greedy people, but for me it's okay to have fun with sports betting because I always do with my own limits and never exceed more than my bankroll for the day.

I am not really a gambler but I heard about people who can't quit it and keep losing lots of money. Do you think the attitude to gambling addiction should be the same as to drug addiction? Should the government forbid gambling and treat somehow those who are addicted? Or maybe it should be left up to an adult? I mean, should people decide on their own whether they need to gamble or not. What do you think?
I think limiting amount of money one can gamble in a day/month might make gamblers to lose less, for this to happen something like global wallet(limit can be specified/applied here) can be made where a user will be able to gamble on multiple sites with just one account.(just my thought)

I will say it is not as diseases you have no control over it but gambling to me you have a control over it if you are ready to stop. My opinion though... I am not really a gambler but I heard about people who can't quit it and keep losing lots of money. Do you think the attitude to gambling addiction should be the same as to drug addiction? Should the government forbid gambling and treat somehow those who are addicted? Or maybe it should be left up to an adult?

Gambling can sometime become addiction if the one who keep on playing doubling his betting on every loss he make. If you keep on winning for few times, you try to start playing with bigger size bets and soon loss all you have than to get those you have lost you even make bet bigger and loss more than what you have actually won before. So this keep on going untill ending up with no any left in hand to gamble.

It can become a addiction but not more than that in my eyes because its not something that really is making you sick or something, it can only let you lose a lot of money. Gambling a lot is not good but its indeed not a sickness, I think some people are just overthinking the whole situation people are in.

There are many places in which gambling is illegal and about whether or not gambling is a disease like a drug addiction, I will think that is not the same, with drug addiction you have a physical dependence on a substance while in gambling this is not a case, I will probably call it and obsession instead, but I think these are just technicalities, both persons need professional help, the drug addicted and the gambler.

When people gamble then lost, will things wanna take back the money with much tricks. but this are some a disease or be a bad habbits.

I think yes, I mean you just can gambling if you have money. And if you dont have money, You will do everything to get a money for gambling. And it is dangerous, if you do the bad thing like steal the money or something like that, it is called you are addicted on gambling, and it is dease.

How can you think like this OP, disease is something which is producing inside the body and for which we have to go for treatment, gambling is not producing inside the body but it is inside the mind of a human being, greediness is the main reason of gambling, if a human being is satisfied with what ever they are earning then their wont be necessary to gamble. so first they have to be ready to leave gambling.

Well for me gambling addiction is not just simply a disease but it comes worst as syndrome. Yes, that is my opinion when it comes worst, because it is really hard to stop if someone is going to get addicted with it. And that is the cause of their addiction for retrieving their loses and thinking that they are able to get it again but instead they are just losing again.

It's a Disease. I think. A mental disorder. Officially classified by APA (American Psychiatric Association) as an impulse-control disorder. Like kleptomania and pyromania. But I think it's also like addiction to drugs,cigarettes,alcohol. It affects the brain which results to dependence. It's because of the 'rush'/'high'. Drugs = Dopamine Cigarette = Nicotine Alcohol = Dopamine, Endorphins Gambling = stimulates the Amygdala (one of the main centers that control emotion ) (impulse-control is suppressed) Do you think the attitude to gambling addiction should be the same as to drug addiction? Hmm. More like alcohol and smoking addiction. Should the government forbid gambling and treat somehow those who are addicted? It is being treated. I doubt the government can make gambling totally illegal like drugs. More like imposing strict rules and more taxes like for alcohol and cigarettes. Or maybe it should be left up to an adult? I mean, should people decide on their own whether they need to gamble or not. What do you think? Isn't it ultimately decided by us in the end? To gamble, to quit, to seek help. It's all up to us anyway. [/quote]

Gambling will surely affect your physical condition too. It is not true that addiction of gambling will not have any impact over your body and mind. The stress you will face during gambling life will not only disturb social life but also personal and physical as well. Gambling addiction is mental disease and have deeper effect which seems at later points.

government banned gambling and drugs, both equally dangerous addiction. but effects vary. addiction to gambling can be as addicted to drugs that need to be rehabilitated, if addiction to gambling has been very severe.

I’m very skeptical of some of the things that the APA (American Psychiatric Association) calls a disease, especially when in this day and age just being socially awkward can be grounds for some people to be diagnosed as having a mental disorder.

not all countries prohibit gambling, many also allow gambling like texas and hongkong, and gambling are less harmful when compared with drugs
