So we do a lot of education in the community and I think you know, Kelly, speaking to what you were sharing earlier, you know I was so pleased to hear you sharing the information, some of those effects that you have experienced as an, as an affected other, because you know we talk about those things.
Imagine dealing with the fallout of a loved one's gambling addiction. Christina and her friend Kelly, both on their own recovery journeys, team up in this episode to shine a light on the experiences of those on the other side of gambling harm. Joined by Amy, Brandy, and Robin from the Northeast Problem Gambling Resources Center, they dive into the nitty-gritty of offering support to families and friends affected by gambling.
They chat about everything from matching clients with the right therapists to the financial assistance available for those who need it. The conversation doesn't shy away from the tough stuff either, like the stigma and shame that can make seeking help so daunting. But it's not all heavy – there's a lot of hope and practical advice sprinkled throughout.
If you're curious about how community support can make a real difference or just want to understand more about the ripple effects of gambling addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
