Therza's Journey: Finding Light in the Darkness of Gambling Addiction

You can be in a casino full of people and feel just utterly lonely or alone, and when you are just in your instance, like if your husband's gone and kind of lonely for his companionship or whatever, you're still present, you're still living your life, you're not so numbed out that you don't notice the people that are there or the things that are there.
What happens when grief and isolation drive someone to the brink? In this heartfelt episode of 'The Broke Girl Society', host Christina sits down with Therza, a woman who knows all too well the depths of gambling addiction. Therza opens up about her life, sharing how a move that left her feeling isolated pushed her towards online gambling as a way to cope with her sorrow.
Her story is not just about the lows but also about the incredible resilience and hope that comes with recovery. Through the support of communities like Gamban and GA, Therza found a lifeline and a sense of belonging that helped her reclaim her life. She offers a candid look at the struggles and triumphs of overcoming addiction, emphasizing the importance of finding safe spaces and supportive networks.
Therza's journey is a testament to the power of community and the possibility of healing, making this episode a must-listen for anyone touched by gambling addiction.
