About Finance Addiction
Finance addiction, like compulsive spending or gambling, is a genuine struggle, often fueled by underlying emotional needs or trauma. It's not just about money; it's about seeking validation, excitement, or escape. But recovery is possible with understanding and support. It involves confronting the root causes, developing healthier financial habits, and seeking professional guidance when necessary. You're not defined by your financial behaviors; you have the strength to regain control and cultivate a balanced relationship with money.
