How many of us have an air fryer that we could have picked up at Walmart for 50 quid, but it was a 'free' gift that cost us a thousand?
Ever wondered why certain topics in recovery groups feel like forbidden territory? In this episode of 'The Broke Girl Society', Christina and Terra dive into the often-avoided subjects of free play and free gifts in the context of gambling addiction. They discuss how these seemingly harmless incentives can be powerful triggers, pulling individuals back into the cycle of gambling.
Terra shares her experiences with the lure of 'free' gifts that ended up costing far more than their actual value, shedding light on the manipulative tactics used by gambling establishments. The conversation also touches on the controversial topic of controlled gambling and why it’s not commonly discussed in their support group. Christina and Terra stress the importance of recognising personal triggers and seeking support to navigate them.
