I've learned how to contol my addiction. I've made an expense report outlining where my money needs to go each month. I don't carry cash and always make a list of what I NEED and stick to the list. I don't go to malls unless I know what I'm buying.
My problem is, I can't get over the feeling of NEEDING to spend money, mainly on clothes and cosmetics. The best way to describe this "feeling" is - whenever I buy expensive makeup or clothes, I feel important. It gives me a sense of belonging because I am able to afford spending $200 on makeup in one day.
When I look through fashion magazines, I have to make myself put it down because just looking at things I want to buy drives me crazy. Is this normal? Do I need to seek professional help? Maybe my problem goes deeper than shopping?
Help! It's taking all my will power to keep myself from going sephora's website RIGHT NOW!
