DO YOU SUFFER FROM COMPULSIVE SHOPPING DISORDER?
RETAIL OBSESSION.
A shopaholic buys things not because he requires the items but to feel better, more self-confident or to experience a temporart adrenaline rush similiar to a drug addict scoring a fix.
UNCONTROLLABLE BINGE SHOPPING.
You know u're a shopaholic when...
1)you go shopping very often, usually once a day
2)you feel a "need" to shop rather than a "desire" to shop
3)you feel easily irritated when you are unable to shop
4)you do not need & may not use 7 out of your 10 purchases
5)you incur debts because of ur shopping
6)shopping preoccupies you to the pt that u neglect other aspects of life including work & family
7)you feel exhilarated during a shopping trip & remorse or guilty when its over
8)you argue wif family & frens abt ur spending habits
9)you try 2 hide ur purchases
10)you lie to others abt the extent or cost of the purchases.
so are YOU one?
for me... no 1, 2, 3, 6(sometimes), 7, 9(yeah from my mom).
okay. am i considered a shopaholic?
