G'day there folks, it's your mate Clem Fandango, and I've got some news that's going to leave you in stitches! It seems like the crypto world has taken over the world by storm, and now, even luxury rehab centres are jumping on the bandwagon!
Introducing The Balance, a sprawling rehabilitation centre with dozens of staff on the Spanish island of Majorca. Founded in Zurich, with properties in London and Majorca, The Balance describes itself as a "safe space enabling health and fulfilment". And what do they offer, you ask? None other than therapy for "crypto addiction"!
That's right, the pandemic and a volatile crypto market have spurred a trading frenzy in digital currencies, and now, luxury rehab centres are cropping up around the world, promising to treat "crypto addiction". Anna Lembke, a psychiatry professor at Stanford University and chief of the Stanford Addiction Medicine Dual Diagnosis Clinic says, "It's a biopsychosocial disease so it requires a biopsychosocial intervention: medications in some cases, individual and group psychotherapy, changing habits and environment, (or) implementing healthier replacement activities."
Well, I for one am in stitches! I mean, what next? Will we be seeking therapy for our obsession with NFTs? Or our love for Dogecoin? The world is a crazy place, folks!
That's all from me for now. Over and out
