Heroin addiction vs Gambling addiction, which is worse?

Or for any other addictive drugs like benzo, meth, weed, etc. Which kind of it leaves the user with worse consequences?

Benzo withdraws are hell and heroin withdraws are the closest thing to feel like dieing. Meth withdraws suck for a few days of sweating and throwing up and not sleeping. Weed is mentally addictive but no one really needs it to get through a day. I love my heroin through but had to stop cause it was wrecking my everyday life and family.

The thing about drugs is that you can only take so much before you pass out/whatever. With gambling there's nothing stopping you from doing your life savings in one sitting. Any addition be destructive though I guess.

Well with gambling, you're almost literally throwing your money away. But with heroin, you're at least guaranteed a high.

But to be fair, gambling is the only addiction where you can win some money.

So I'm the only one that's ever won money from a heroin addiction? Weird.

Difficult to say... Both can ruin your life, both can take your house & family... Worst would be both combined i guess... I knew a guy addicted to Meth & Gambling, very often he lost his meth-money with gambling, and had to start all overto get his kick ^ Poor Bastard, often in Jail

Weed is as addictive as benzos, meth or opiates?

Wat.

I could argue gambling. Heroin is no joke, but you're really only playing with your life. If you're gambling, you've probably got a family. And when you've got a gambling addiction, you're putting your families lives on the line as well as your own.

But I mean fuck they're both bad enough

Weed isn't addictive.
