Shopoholism!?

I think i have a problem. A serious problem at that. An addiction. But not any addiction. No im not addicted to alcohol or even any other mind altering narcotic. I have the worst addiction of all. A shopping addiction!!! I cant stop and its definitely getting worst.

The easy access of being able to order whatever you want online is getting to me. The simplicity of viewing your items, putting in your credit card number, and pressing send is pulling me in. Being able to track where your package is controlling me.

Everyday, i get on the computer at least 4 times a day, not to say hi to my wonderful friends, or even listen to music, or write on this wonderful blog; but to go to a number of websites (Onatoko,
Fred Flare, Go Jane, 80s Purple, and Karmaloop to name a few) to see recent arrivals and sales.

My friends and family think its ridiculous and crazy, and I'm starting to believe them. I definitely need help.



I just ordered this ring about 5 minutes ago from Fred Flare >>



I mean yea its cute...but do i really need it??? Probably not.





And I'm definitely ready to make this purchase from Shop Plasticland







With all that said, I hope i can get this problem under control soon. Being on vacation from school gives me more and more incentive to sit in front of a computer and click add to cart. Maybe I need to get a hobby or something to keep me busy...

Hi,

I just came across your blog.
I saw you mentioning that you suspect that you may have caught up with Shop holism or you think that you are addicted to shopping.

Do you still feel that your are addicted to shopping ?
If not, how did you work on it? How did you get rid of that addiction.

Please reply me.
