Gambling while under the influence of drugs is extremely dangerous and should be avoided at all costs. Drugs can impair judgment and decision-making, leading to poor choices and potentially disastrous consequences. They can also lead to addiction and financial ruin. If you're struggling with drug addiction, it's important to seek help from a professional. Gambling should be for entertainment purposes only, and should never be used as a means of coping with life's problems.
 
It's understandable why some might think gambling could be more exciting when not in a sober state of mind, but the risks far outweigh any momentary pleasures. Substance use exacerbates any urges to chase losses or take bigger risks, not to mention making it much harder to keep track of wins or losses. From both an entertainment and harm reduction perspective, keeping a clear head is by far the smartest approach to gambling.
 
No, it's not advisable, no matter the condition you find yourself always try as much as possible to never take hard drugs or alcohol because when you do it can lead to serious problems.
