"Retail therapy" nghĩa là gì?
09 Sep, 2022
"Retail therapy" có retail là bán lẻ, therapy là điều trị -> từ này nghĩa là đi mua sắm để cải thiện tâm trạng, giải tỏa căng thẳng, xả stress.
Ví dụ
There was once an idea that shopping may provide short time relief (phục hồi) to people suffering from depression. This used to be glibly (lém lỉnh) called retail therapy. But the habit (thói quen) made people addicted to the process, like opioid (thuốc phiện) use, either a therapy or an addiction, depending on whether each person uses it adaptively or maladaptively.
Sometimes, the positive emotions that come with retail therapy last for a few days or a few weeks. However, the happiness is often short-lived, and you’re required to partake in “retail therapy” again until you get the high (vui vẻ) once more.
Often, the more you partake in “retail therapy” and shopping to heal your inner problems, the more you will crave (khao khát) over time. You may develop a tolerance to small purchases and small amounts of money, and you may start spending more and more each time you shop to get the feeling of excitement you once got with smaller things.
If you want to learn more about retail therapy from a therapy stance, you can also do so by reading up on BetterHelp’s blog.
