"The Hungry Ghost: A Biopsychosocial Perspective on Addiction, from Heroin to Workaholism"
Clinician and author of In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts
Addiction is epidemic in our society, but we react by regarding it as a crime rather than a disease, even less so as a disease of dislocation and spiritual emptiness. Gabor Maté, a Hungarian-born physician who treats addicts in the Vancouver area, advocates a radical and compassionate approach to addiction and treatment. Boldly challenging the efficacy of the War on Drugs, he proposes more holistic alternatives that address larger societal problems and "high status" addictions, such as wealth, power, sex.
He has given the best description of addiction I have ever heard. I am an addict, i relate to this deeply. Thank you Gabor for your insight into my brain. I'm buying your books asap. A brilliant man.
Dr. Mate was a keynote speaker at a gambling conference I attended in NM now I get my mental self-care done by listening to his lectures. I work with SMI inmates (seriously mentally ill)
He is very much a man and a role model to speak up for what is right. Our culture will look back on this time as barbaric and Dr Mate as a hero which he is a HERO!!!!
Plz let’s get this in to schools
This is unbelievably eye opening! I just stumbled upon Dr. Gabor Mate and I'm so thankful for this talk. This explains a lot, what is going on with me and our society.
Thank you.
Lecture starts @10:12
🌟GABOR MATE STARTS AT 10:06
I do not think there is anything I could say about this wonderful thirst of knowledge that everyone hads not already spoke to. He is definitely knowledgeable in the science of trauma and addiction. I wish he would spend more time in the United States and come to Milwaukee where we have the need to receive his infamous wisdom.
This women is a light worker may the lord bless her efforts to help society esp.the issues of addiction.
I, too, am so lucky to have found Dr Maté’s work, which has changed my life. He has helped me to finally understand my own dysfunction and to let it go.
Thank you, Dr Maté. And thank you to these people who are helping others.
Dr. Mate, I am addicted to your talks ☺
Happy New Year 2018!
Ditto!
Me too 😊🇦🇺
One cannot be addicted to something that is not technically a sin...Sin leads to a habit which becomes an addiction which enslaves in the end.
@@MGTOWPsyche hahaha LOL 😕🥰️
Brilliant man.
Too True...😊🙏🇦🇺
What a relief to know that Dr. Mate is keeping it real, so each one of us has a chance to leave our hungry ghosts behind as we apply what we learn from his lectures.
Love this man. Love love love him. Brilliant mind.
It kicks off at 10:00 minutes
Thanks for quoting of my beloved teacher Paulo Freire.
Such a lovely voice and spirit.
His views are personalized, and portraits an eccentric way of looking at addiction... that vulnerable person who uses substances or behaviours for pleasure or relief may become addicted, and may also disregard the long-term consequences,; that person is damaged, an not the "unharmed person that emerges in recovery"
Thanks for upload
Thank you so much for posting. Dr Mate' has been the most articulate and trustworthy voice on addictions for quite a few years, and his message aught to be heard by EVERYONE. So many people are dying yet the war on drugs and the war on poor people (same thing) continues....
Not just poor people, all classes and races have the problem....its not part of the Division Illusion....it covers ALL humans in All "categories "
I love love love him.
When mom is gone away 14 hours a day at her 2 jobs. Native North American Indians carried their babies everywhere on their backs. Message to future mom's should be "If you cannot take your infant to toddler with you to work, quit your job and beg on a corner, instead, 'for the sake of your child'; who doesn't want anyone but you."
Dr Gabor this is just fantastic - Thank you very much -I want Tom Bilyeu to interview you
It's so simple and yet the politicians continue to portray this travesty of a policy.
That’s the best intro I have heard anyone give Dr Mate. Good job. Rather than just reading off a Wikipedia entry of giving the standard info, one chest the impression the speaker was really touched by Mate’s work.
If you think that intro is good, listen to this one.. ua-cam.com/video/W_ALpvLadQI/v-deo.html
Yes proper supervised ingestion centres, take the hurry and anxiety out of drug taking. Hurry and anxiety cause a lot of the stresses junkies suffer from. And society wants this stress. It’s the deterrent.....
Hi,

the answer to the meaning of life?
Hitler Clancy imislund dictator of the AA pacific group wouldn't like the intelligence and thuth of what Gabor Mate says.
Yes I'm from England and i know what your talking about .
Sin leads to a habit which becomes an addiction which enslaves in the end.
Addiction is usually a form of narcissism which hurts themselves and everyone else around them!
All drugs should be decriminalized completely in order to eliminate all violence in the drug markets.
Why do you say "sin"? This is an unnecessarily punitive, reductionist characterization. Shaming, as well. Stop it.
@@perrinfan we are all deserving eternal damnation and only the grace of god(his son) can save you
@@MGTOWPsyche You just don't get it. Ironically, you are one who could most assuredly benefit from Dr. Maté's work. Too bad your attitude, at present, will prevent that from ever happening.
So what is sin? It is the breaking of God's laws. And that is exactly what you are doing
