Journal Entry for December 19, 2006 Mood
Tuesday, December 19, 2006
This is my first step in walking through my shopping addiction. I have avoided it long enough and now I recognize that it is crushing my finances and my spirit. I have rationalized long enough. Since it's not drugs or alcohol than I thought it was okay. What a lie. I am humbly coming before the Lord and anyone else willing to encourage me to say, I've screwed up my life with overspending and overeating. Although it wasn't the only issue, it contributed to my wife from my first marriage leaving and divorcing me. When will I have enough? Answer, never because the shopping is a symptom of the addiction, which is the real root of my problem. I can't live this way anymore. I know I don't have the ability to fix it alone. I can't seek spending and overeating to help me anymore. I only hope I am not to late to recover and rebuild my life.
