Introduction

The provided case study is of Mrs. Maria Perez who is 53 years old Puerto Rican female.

The case study indicated that she is suffering from alcohol use disorder and gambling disorder.

The background information indicated that the patient became alcoholic after the death of her

father and she is struggling with addiction to alcohol since her 20’s. She is now seeking for help

because her addiction to alcohol and gambling has increased from the past two years. Patient

reported that the reason behind her increased addiction is due to the opening of a new casino

“Rising Sun” near her home. She and her friend went to visit the new casino at its grand opening

and from that point she got “hooked”. Patient reported that she enjoys drinking alcohol during

gambling because alcohol help her to remain calm during the high-stake games. Patient

mentioned that she does not smoke during gambling but she smokes more when she is playing

slot machines. Alcoholism has increased her weight from 115 lbs to 122 lbs. Patient is

embarrassed because she borrowed over $50,000 from retirement account to pay off her

gambling debts and her husband in not aware of this.

The mental status examination indicated that she is oriented to person, place, time and

event. Her speech is clear but she is avoidant to make eye contact during interview which

indicates that she is embarrassed about herself. Self- reported mood is sad but she denies suicidal

or homicidal ideation. Patient also denied paranoid or delusional thought process, auditory or

visual hallucinations. Insight and judgment are grossly intact. The pertinent positive information

that will impact decision making when prescribing medication for this patient include her age

factor, addiction to alcohol, gambling and cigarette smoke, absence of information related to

abstinence and impaired impulse control.
