I have a shopping addiction. I admit it. Im addicted to shopping and mostly what I buy is little crap that I don't need. Some stuff that I even wonder why I bought it!
Well I was doing really well. I only shopped a little and with my own money. I was proud of myself. But then my grandpa got sick and we have to take care of him at our house.
And well, I fell off the wagon big time! I was buying everything and anything that remotely interested me even if it was only for a moment. and i just needed that moment to buy it, leaving me to wonder why did I buy that?
Anyway it got worse and worse until I ended up cutting my arm with a pin trying to carve the words : bad girl" It was when I realized I needed help not only with shopping but with my cutting problem.
so I called my therapist and set up an appointment as soon as possible.
We talked and soon got to the root of my shopping and cutting problem. It was due to my PTSD. and so if anyone is reading this blog and has a shopping problem I just want to say I know how you feel and where you're coming from. dont despair admit you have a problem and talk to a doctor about seeing a professional to help you with your problem!
