The experience of gambling is truly a fascinating one and it is unrealistic to compare it with drinking alcohol. I enjoy gambling more than drinking alcohol because gambling gives me pleasure and sometimes my pleasure increases many times with winning. The moment of losing hurts but a win can make you forget the moment of losing before.

Drinking alcohol causes physical damage along with financial loss but I drink on various occasions and when I spend time with friends. I mostly refrain myself from drinking to avoid mental depression and further financial loss due to intoxication. I feel more comfortable in gambling because the joy of winning is combined with entertainment.

You know, with alcohol, it is easier to tell yourself stop when you have already started. There are moments when you physically can not even get in more liquid inside of stomach. With gambling, there are no moments when you can stop. Wins and losses always stimulate to continue. Both activities can force a person to come back, but alcohol sessions can not be endless, non-stop. Alcohol limitations also work well to decrease addiction. In some countries alcohols stops selling after 10 in the evening, or dont sell at weekends at all. With gambling its a non-stop activity. Gambling is more dangerous.
