Oniomania (Shopping Addiction)?

Question by Missy: Oniomania (shopping addiction)?
Okay, so I am pretty sure I have this addiction, but after I’ve read more about it, it seems like most people who have it are in great debt. Well, whatever I spend is within my means. Just, I get so stressed about what I’m getting and if I’m getting the ‘most value’ for my dollar. I can literally spend hours picking things out online. Sometimes an item I wanted sells out, which drives me insane. And once I’m done with my order, I don’t feel at all good. I just feel unbelievably stressed about the whole ordeal. Sometimes, I don’t even go through with the order… What’s wrong with me? Is this related to OCD…? because I do have that. I also have depression. I’ve noticed though, this is definitely not a problem when I’m physically shopping at a store. There are times when I have a hard time picking between items, but it’s definitely not as bad as online. I mean, should I ban myself from online shopping or what? 🙁 It just makes me so angry! I even drove myself to tears this morning. This doesn’t make sense.

I Have a Shopping Addiction..help?

Question by Lyz: I have a shopping addiction..help?
I’ve always been a shopper but it’s getting out of hand. I can’t stop. I frequently browse eBay because I have access to it on my phone. And amazon too. I’m spending ridiculous amounts on items and I cannot stop. I’ve.bought four pairs of shoes in the last couple months that I haven’t even worn yet, a bunch of cards, clothes, hair dye, jewelry…everything. I ddon’t know how to stop spending I want to save money. I’ve not yet screwed myself over financially but I already know I need to scrunch in order to conserve my remaining money this month. I downloaded an eexpense tracker to record my spendings and its ridiculous how the numbers are adding up. I am also struggling with hoarding (not severe) and have been diagnosed with depression and an anxiety disorder. please how can I stop this before it gets worse?

Question by Big John Horton: What do you know about shopping addiction?
Recently I discovered how much shopping can be and oddly enough I’m a guy.
recently I just bought

Really expensive speakers that cost $ 500 a piece along with a $ 200 amplifier and $ 100 sub box
1 bomber hat that ran me $ 29.99
1 stuffed animal that sits in my car $ 15.00

And so on, but I noticed this is a real deal addiction after I came close to shorting myself car insurance money.
