Shopping Addiction Support Group
Oniomania (also known as shopping addiction), is the compulsive desire to shop. Similar to other compulsive behaviors, sufferers often experience the highs and lows associated with addiction. The purchase generates a mood of satisfaction, gives their life meaning, and lets them forget about their sorrows.
It's making me nervous...I'm almost reaching the 1000 dollar mark by the end of this month. That includes Christmas shopping, online shopping, miscellaneous shopping....In a phrase, I CAN"T STOP SHOPPING. I swear there should be signs all around the malls with my picture with the caption: Please do not accept any cash or credit from this woman.
Anyway, how is everybody dealing with this time of year?

I was given some money as a Christmas present from a relative and I'm TRYING to hold off spending it untill the semi annual sales. But it's HARD. The latest Old Navy commercial that is being shown now I want that white sweater with the black buttons.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
