Re: Is this what we called "addictive to gamble"?

Is more like a mental illness that in the end, results to addictive behaviors from going back even though the results are pure losses. Psychotherapy and group therapy is the key to solving these types of illnesses or disorders (speaking from experience). I went down that road when I was way younger and almost end up selling most of my belongings just so I could go back the next day and gamble again but eventually I learned how to react with such scenarios.

Good to hear from someone who have recover from being addicted, I myself have also been addicted and I lost all the money that is not intended for gambling, even the needs of my family was sacrificed due to the stupidity of my act. Now, I am more responsible although I cannot really quit gambling for good.

Wooooow! that was too serious conditions of you two. I guess the addicted person that has a problem in Gambling is also have the same result who's addicted in drugs. I have a relative before that is addicted in drugs and he can't control himself until he just sell some of their appliances in their house and even though that is not his use he will still sell it. just to have his addicted medicine.

You can be high everyday with drugs but if your trip is not gambling then you will not lose money, however if you are not addicted to drug but you love to gamble, so will still do gambling regularly and since gambling is to risky due to house edge we will always lose when we do it regularly.

gambling and drugs, both costly, because in drugs, if you just want to use you will some right? until you lose also a lot of money just by using. Some of your things, you will just sell it just to have that drugs, just like in gambling. You will sell everything if that gambling makes you addicted to it and play again and again.

I think this is not correct. I agree both are very addictive things. Gambling and Drug in both case it is tough to come out from this. But in Gambling if you can try hardly means there is a chance to get out from this and also if you do not have single penny to play means slowly you can make quite gambling. But Drug addiction is not like that it will directly lead us to make suicide.

This two is very different. People do gambling because they want an easy way to profit and that's the reason gambling addicts stick to gambling no matter what. There's a possibility that people who do drugs is in a despair of their life and sometimes isolated with people that's why they look for a thing that makes them happy and sometimes the thing they find that makes them happy is drugs, that's why you see people get addicted to drugs because that's what makes them happy in a part of their life that they feel like shit. BUT I dont suggest people that feel sorrowed in their to make drugs as their way of treating themselves being isolated, I suggest to look for other things.
