MODEL3 There are high risks with games of chance.
Script
Susan: Hey, Chris. Why so you look so depressed 1?
Chris: Oh, it’s my brother. You know, he has got a gambling 2 problem. You can’t understand gambling as an addiction 3 unless you’ve been hooked.
Susan: Apparently 4 it’s like being addicted 5 to drugs or alcohol. You just want more and more.
Chris: It’s exactly like alcoholism; it takes over you life. It’s on your mind constantly.
Susan: Yeah, like some horrible disease. But you can get help.
Chris: My brother tried to stop, but he felt restless…bad tempered. His nerves were always on edge.
Susan: Did he try Gamblers Anonymous 6? It’s a self-help group with experience just like his.
Chris: Yeah, he’s not alone. It’s estimated there are 10 million addicts 7 in America.
Susan: I don’t want to nag 8 him, but isn’t it a question of taking control of his life?
Chris: I see your point, but he’s a compulsive gambler.
Susan: I know. But if he gets help, maybe he’ll get better.
Chris: No doubt. It’ll be tough. Though but worth it.
Susan: Remember the proverb “Better medicine has wholesome 9 effects.”
