Whether credible or not everyone can pick out for themselves....

"Marc Lewis is a neuroscientist and retired professor of developmental psychology. he received his PhD in psychology from the University of Toronto in 1989. In his youth, he experimented a lot with various drugs. Then he became addicted and was not able to finally get off them until he was 30

Just reading the headline - the question came to me directly: "What makes a disease a disease and why"?
Since it is the thesis of an individual - read a scientific paper that is in context and follows the opposite interpretation: "Why addiction is a disease".

I would be interested in your view after you have dealt with both sides
Since the thesis mentioned by you does not find as generally valid valid Anwedung and the health service world-wide: Addiction as illness defines, accordingly Medical assistance on the part of these places to concerning with in the health service as firm component exists
Of course, this does not mean that the interpretation is not correct - nevertheless, the prerequisite before accepting a thesis as true for itself, is a deviation by comparison with the contra

It's true, addiction itself is not a disease. Rather, addiction is a concomitant
Triggered by a cause

The best provable example would be ADHD. Not the attention deficit, but the less noticed error in the brain
By the way, this is congenital. Namely, the dopamine release is not correct. The brain can not regulate correctly

Meaning, what satisfies normal people, does not satisfy these people .
They need a bigger kick, which signals the brain clearly that it is time to feel pleasure
It can also happen that these people, to "normal" occasions, where one is just okey drauf, föllig Euphoric are, because the brain, too much ausschütet

Often this is also accompanied by depessions, or mani and the like. In good German, this "error" sets up a lot of damage

Now to the actually TH topic.

There is a therapy in the form of tablets. Medikinet, Stattera, Ritalien. Ritalien should be known to students
What makes a normal person, Highly concentrated, and extremely Positive, and stimulating , shows yes, how strong the deffiziet is.


But what has Gambling addiction to do with it ?

Well, that is the self-therapy. Another kind of "tablet." Gambling also stimulates production. (Or other addictive substances)

The same is true for all types of depression

How do I know this? I myself am affected by this brain defect, the regulation of norepinephrine and dopamine due to AD(H)S






Exactly this!

There is this well-known sentence in 'Rounders': you only live when it's really exciting.

And that's how it is for me, too. The ordinary life with its ordinary people just p**ses me off. But give me 3 beers and cards in my hand or a nice live bet and I'll live...

how can you tell that you are a gambling addict? Are there physical symptoms, I have no idea.
Smokers are also addicted, but if they sleep 10 hours and longer, where is the addiction.It is but no one awake because his body screams for nicotine.My opinion is the explorer is not completely wrong, all only head thing.

You notice it in different behavior patterns, but it is to distinguish between something that makes physically dependent and something that makes psychologically dependent. Smokers take the first cigarette in the morning, because the body calls for it.

Much is a matter of the head, if one has the will to stop, it often works very well. But most people don't want to quit, they just don't want to get into Debt and then start again and win a lot. One is simply under an illusion that if one had chosen a different bet, played a different slot or had more money ... then one would have won or not lost so much. Some are also angry at the woman who says good night in a just exciting session and then it does not run then is already cursed. Or why the purchase for the meal was a bit more expensive than usual? Such things suddenly disturb and destroy not infrequently marriages.

Some don't give up for the rest of their lives and some learn from it when they get into a bad situation. Not infrequently, family and friends are dragged along with them.

For me it looks like this. If someone gives up his financial freedom and gets into Debt to the point of endangering his existence, then this person is simply mentally ill. You can see it in the suicides because these people see no way out of the situation and know exactly that they will always continue to play

So clearly a disease and not a character weakness that you can overcome with a little self-discipline.
