A fascinating question that makes you think carefully. I felt it was hard for me to imagine gambling addiction as a genetic disease or disorder. Nevertheless, the formation of this dependence is influenced by a person's choice, actions, and the lifestyle they lead.
However, I believe that as soon as the love of gambling becomes an addiction, a person needs serious professional help, as if they had an addiction to illegal substances or alcohol.
Gambling addiction is not a disease or genetic disorder but the result of what we constantly do and are not aware of any changes in ourselves. Gambling addiction is dependence on gambling games and we want to play longer but unfortunately, we use our money to play and don't give many wins if we don't have luck.
If you are addicted to gambling, you need help from other people and we even have to contact professionals who can help us overcome the gambling addiction. But the role of the family will be very important because they are the closest people to us who can supervise and help us to find solutions.
