No doubt in your saying that no one can quit gambling instantly for good. He cant quit it even if he wants to quit thats why call it as an addiction.

With strong willpower and determination to redeem one's own self an addicted gambler can even quit gambling in a few days. Of course the iron will has to be there and the hatred towards gambling needs to be present.

Its like the same that someone inhales oxygen while he wants to quit inhaling Oxygen because if he will do this, he would be soon dead.

Oxygen is essential for life. On the other hand gambling is an addiction or in other words oxygen is a necessity while gambling is an indulgence. Hence this is a poor comparison.

Gambling has a proper method with which it can be easily cured.

Gambling is not a disease. It is an addiction. Calling it a disease is an oversimplification of facts.

it is just funny how you reacted and quoted thise texts. I guess i have to agree, since disciplining yourself from gambling is hard to do i guess(although i am not really one), but comparing it to some other things that could cause addiction it seems for me that it is hard. Whether winning or losing makes it more addicting. As an example if you win big time, you will though you won easily and needs to win more, if you lose big time you will try to get back all your losses of course, in the end it is a matter of greed.

Hard to stop no matter what the outcome of gambling is something that is very common to see. And unfortunately, such behavior is formed by itself and even without us knowing it. It needs a strong intention so that gambling doesn't lead us to the wrong direction.
