Abstract
Unfortunately the explanations regarding possible interventions for pathological gambling were all too brief. In addition to acute psychiatric/psychotherapeutic treatment, medical rehabilitation is in principle an option. Especially in patients with a long-term and chronic disease course, in a scenario of additional substance related disorders, in severe personality disorders, or in other psychological comorbidities, pathological gambling can be assumed to constitute a serious risk to people’s ability to work. In such cases, rehabilitation treatment is required. The ability to undergo rehabilitation depends, among others, on the existing or achievable motivation to change and understanding of the affliction as an illness.
