Product Description
Shopping addiction can be very damaging to one’s mental and physical health and one’s financial well-being. A study conducted by university researchers found that 58 percent of compulsive shoppers had large debts, 42 percent couldn’t make their debt payments, 8 percent had financial legal problems, and 8 percent had criminal legal problems. Detoxing from Shopping is one of eight titles in the Detoxing From series. Each title spotlights a major addiction; discusses its negative physical and mental effects, as well as its effects on family and other loved ones; and provides an overview of treatment options for the addiction. Profiles of those who are battling addictions are provided to help readers understand that anyone can develop an addiction. Readers will learn that addictions can be overcome with the help of therapy, drug treatments, self-help groups, support family and friends, and other resources.Australian Curriculum:
