What arguments will you give? What will you tell the patient about?
I am not a doctor and I do not know how gambling addicts are treated. Even if I know some, I can not be better like those that are specialized in the area.
Please note that the patient will resist to the last. He will give counterarguments. For example, that he will get rich in the future, he’s just not lucky yet.
What other arguments do you think the patient will give? How do you respond to these arguments of his?
You will let him know how foolish he is. But not telling him he is foolish and not telling him what can make him angry. You can all see what gambling does to addicts. I will try to use that to convince him with true life stories of some addicts.
OP I’m sorry to ask are there people who are in the hospital just for too much of gambling?? I am really worrying how they talk about betting a lot that mean all they think all the time is how to play or bet game to win,what a world!!
Well back to what OP have said yes if I was the doctor I will let him no how foolish he is and tell him sorry real life story about addicts that are worse than his only for example a man who sold his homes and his two expensive cars just to bet a game and the did win at that moment the man ran mad at that moment…… you let them no how betting can hit up with then in the future…
