how drugs and gambling destroy a person’s life??

Well, this is the kind of smartest thing you can do, there's no other way This is the kind of thinking that most players should apply: knowing that if you've lost money, you should consider it lost and not try to recover it At least in gaming, it doesn't work Maybe in trading it does with a great plan,  but in an activity where you're selling your house and relying on luck, it doesn't.

Yes, also I think I've discovered a way when you are not chasing your losses and kinda recovering it at the same time.If, during my gambling session, I lose five times more than I can easily afford to lose in one day, I don’t gamble for the next five days — and voilà, my losses are recovered.

And I want to say this again: drug addiction is not comparable to gambling. Drugs can completely destroy people’s lives; gambling usually doesn’t.

drugs and gambling both destroy a person’s life but the way they do it is different, drugs directly harm the body and the brain, health gets worse, working ability decreases, family problems increase and the risk of crime and death comes very quickly, this kind of destruction is visible, it happens fast and everyone can understand that something very bad is happening.
 
on the other hand gambling destroys a person slowly, it starts with fun then turns into loss, at one point everything goes out of control, after losing money debts begin, lies increase, relationships break, mental stress and depression grow, self respect is lost, the most dangerous part of gambling is that a person does not even realize when they have entered the path of destruction, so it can be said that drugs take life quickly while gambling slowly takes away the whole life...

keep it green at least blow, shall do not try no shit fentanyl , no shitty crack , no heroin , makes you dummyass niggers

And I want to say this again: drug addiction is not comparable to gambling. Drugs can completely destroy people’s lives; gambling usually doesn’t.

If I agree with that, the truth is there is no comparison in what a drug addiction can be, which is as terrible as a gambling addiction, it is easier to detach yourself from a gambling addiction than a drug addiction, especially detoxification, many cannot achieve it, it is something that really destroys the person, destroys your friends and family, it is very hard.

If you chose to be successful and responsibly in life, one needs to avoid being involved in gambling and drugs because the outcome will be very bad, because you will not be able to withstand the challenges associated with it.

Drugs tends to be more dangerous and kills faster than gambling, if being consumed excessively, although gambling has its own part but can't be compared to drugs as it's can be easily managed when it gets out of hands.

We have been hearing since the age when we have intelligence that drugs and drug addiction are so dangerous for a person that drugs destroy a person like cancer. Yet people cannot get themselves out of the terrible circle of this drug. People know the harmful effects of drugs before consuming them, yet people keep themselves bound by the terrible addiction of this drug. On the other hand, gambling, like drugs, slowly destroys people economically. Although a person knows about this uncertain game long ago, people cannot get themselves out of this addiction like drugs.

Despite knowing that drugs destroy a person, ordinary people become addicted to drugs, they destroy their own lives. There is little influence from others behind this, no one can be forced to become addicted to drugs, it happens through a person's own bad will. Gambling can also transform a person's life into addiction, but by gambling with money that can afford to lose by following all the rules from the beginning, a gambler can protect himself from addiction, and enjoy the real fun of gambling, it depends entirely on the gambler's own habits.

I agree with both of you, however the risk that is shared in drugs and gambling is addiction and loss of control. The drugs ruin an individual by ruining the body and mind whereas gambling ruins money, relationships and sanity. I concur that responsibility is important but addiction is not a bad choice, stress, environment, and emotions may drive people into it. That is why boundaries are significant. When one is gambling, this should be moderated and cost-effective. However, drugs are much more dangerous and thus forfeiting one is the safest choice one can make in life.

It seems to me that many people would argue with you, because drug addiction is a condition where a person destroys himself during exposure to substances and if you carefully get rid of these substances, he will have a chance of a good healthy existence. Yes, I admit that it's not that easy, but I'm stating the main point, as opposed to uncontrolled gambling. But in the most uncontrolled gambling, the player does not depend on any substances, he just wants to gamble all the time, and money is no longer a goal for him, but a means to spend more time in the world of funny colored pictures. And such a person can be fixed only by changing his consciousness and turning over his broken value system.

Both Drugs and Gambling can lead someone into the addiction. Those things destroying his brain by supplied so much dopamine. However, the damage triggered by the gambling addiction much worsen compared to the drug. When it comes to the drug, it's only affecting your body, and often hallucination. However, gambling addiction can affect not only yourself, but your family too.
I saw many cases a gambling addiction who get divorced, killed others, stealing the money, and even suicide. Basically, both are the same, but the output damage created is different.

Drug addiction doesn't just affect the body, the same way gambling addiction affects the family of a gambling addict drug addiction comes with the same problem or even worse. Users tend to exhibit aggression and abusive nature to their family members and everyone around them. Both addictions are actually serious and can cause a lot of damage. I can't say that one is dangerous than the other.

Drugs and gambling both cause addiction in those who choose either path, as both provide reasons for stress and depression ultimately leading to an individual's downfall
because of the addiction formed within their personality.

This means that neither will bring any good if used in the wrong way by anyone. Everyone knows these can truly ruin our lives
if we are careless, especially with illegal drugs.

If there is no work, then there is no way for a person addicted to drugs or gambling to get out of their addiction. Those who are addicted usually want to protect themselves from their addiction. But when there is no work, their mind focuses on the addiction. Even if the mind wants to, it is possible to fight against with the mind for some time, but it is not always possible to do so. If you want to escape from addiction, keeping yourself busy with something else is a good way. I have tried to take a break from gambling sometimes, but later after some time I became interested in gambling again. If I had something else to do, then the addiction could not touch me if I did that.

Of all this, I think something: addiction enters because we ourselves allow it, it's that simple Addiction is the fault of the person themselves; we shouldn't blame anyone else. We are not capable of stopping when we should, we are not capable of saying no more, simply because we let ourselves be carried away. Just as we enter into addiction, we must have the conviction to get out of it, allowing ourselves to be helped, doing what a specialist says. That's how it is.

Exactly,, failure to set up a strict limit is actually providing room for addiction. Some gambler or should I said a lot of gamblers cause it to themselves and there is no room budgeting, saving or setting limits again when addiction enters an individual's blood. And it becomes very difficult for some people to recover from that kind of situations. Just like my people use to say "prevention is far better and cheaper than cure". So I think it very important to follow the preventive measures of addiction in order to protect and prevent yourself from getting addicted to gambling. Which include setting limit in everything including the money you use to gamble, the time you spend on gambling and mostly prevent regular gambling or making gambling a daily habit.

[LUCKMCFLY]

And similar to what you said, it's needed to avoid and deal with it with careful executions, addiction is a serious thing especially if you are involce in both drugs and gambling.

If the case is that he suffers from both addictions, I would say that the first thing he should address is the drugs That addiction kills a person much faster, it makes them lose a lot, It's truly worrying what happens to someone like that The problem with having both addictions is that with either addiction he ends up without money, and with drugs it takes away the money he needs to gamble and he can suffer overdoses that are often fatal.

Gambling is that dangerous, isn't it? I remain vigilant even though I am poor, I still don't feel safe when gambling. Lust can arise at any time, whether we win or lose. Gambling is very dangerous, especially gambling that is done secretly. It's better to be open with those closest to us so that there is someone to control us when we cross the line.

When you are vigilant about gambling, it will be difficult for you to be addicted to gambling because you will be using amount of funds you can afford to lose in gambling, but those who is after huge amount of funds in gambling will be using amount of funds that will make them feel bad when their expectations is not coming the way they want it, if you make your gambling openly is not good because whatever you will be doing that is bringing you income people will think is gambling winning and if they see you not doing well they will think is gambling that is eating your funds, I will advise you to gamble secretly because it will not make other people to understand your life style either winning or losing in gambling.

Exactly,, failure to set up a strict limit is actually providing room for addiction.

Setting a limit when trying drugs shouldn't involve such a test, nor the "I'm just going to try a little" approach, because that immediately triggers addiction and destroys one's life Even so, compared to gambling, a person can control themselves from the beginning if they try, but with drugs there is no control whatsoever it becomes an addiction So, if you know it's harmful, it's better not to even consider it.

how drugs and gambling destroy a person’s life??

Don't we know that drugs are made and contain dangerous chemicals that can damage the human brain and body, such as opium, acetone, ephedrine and so on which are mixed into morphine, methamphetamine and so on.
Don't we know that gambling is synonymous with money and gambling, where gambling can bring depression, anxiety, greed and so on which can make people mentally damaged due to the mistakes they don't accept when gambling.

So, gambling and drugs are two things that can be seen with the eyes and thought with the brain are something that has pleasure, but on the contrary, these two activities kill and destroy humans slowly and coldly, that is the second way to destroy humans.

In my circle, there are people who claimed they could control their use and believed that occasionally smoking marijuana had no effect on them, and that they could easily quit whenever they wanted. I’ve also seen similar statements here on the forum about gambling, when people say they can stop betting at any moment if they choose to. But in both cases, I tend to see that if someone truly enjoys smoking or gambling, it’s unlikely they’ll just stop. And how much it can escalate really depends on how well a person is able to control themselves and their habits.

Drugs and gambling are too different thing. Gambling addiction may have psychological effect while drugs may have an effect on health . Setting limits should be for gambling at least to know when to stop and when things are getting out of control.
Although people that are already into drug can decide to set a limit since they are already addicted to it. This will help them to regulate the quantity they take and possibly give room for them to quit.

Drugs and gambling are the same thing, they work hand in hand once you are addicted to any of them they damage you immediately and it's not good for a person to get so involved in both of them, while drugs deals with your body and state of well-being, gambling deals with you emotionally and deteriorates you beyond imagination, you end you seeing yourself doing what ordinary you won't have done because you are no longer in control of your mind, you are working under the influence of the substance you have taken so we should desist from drugs.

Gambling can easily be controlled once a person has a good bankroll Management and keeps himself on budgets but drugs is very difficult to quit and it will requires a  rehabilitation center for such person to regain his consciousness and  mental stability. Both are silent killers so we shouldn't indulge in it, if at all we want to, we should minimize it for health and safety purposes. So Many people are roaming mad on the streets today are at the results of the drugs they took so we should be careful as both can easily destroy someone's life.

Indeed, it needs to take good care of drug addiction as the chance of getting better condition of your mindset can be process when drugs already been remove in your system, the willingness of the person is what gave a big factor to overcome this problem, after that, you'll be able to work with gambling addiction since that  there's already a self-will it's not much to step away when you really wanted to remove it from your system.

I believe that addictions such as drug use and gambling should be treated simultaneously rather than one after the other. In such cases, it’s very important for a person to understand that they have these conditions and to voluntarily decide to deal with them, because without personal consent nothing will truly change. You can send someone to a clinic, but after completing treatment, if there is no inner decision to change, people easily return to their old way of life. To avoid relapse, it’s important to change one’s environment and even place of residence, as this can help prevent returning to old habits and instead support the formation of new ones.

Yes, I understand that gambling addiction is very difficult , but it's something that can be managed Well, detoxification isn't as terrible as drug addiction Likewise, for me, all addiction is very bad it's something that starts to destroy us That's why when you have the slightest sign that things are going to go wrong, you should stop, even if you have the best feeling that you're going to win or something,No, stop to preserve your mental health and well-being.

That could be a problem, because when you decide to set a limit, do you know how to set the right limit? In these contexts, in my opinion, it is very difficult to be able to establish a limit beyond which you do not fall to avoid damage that we can say is damage that can create problems in your life, so it is better not to try.
