Modern society provokes women to make constant purchases. Advertising posters say, this is what you need! They shout from the TV "Buy!" But what prompts us to go and constantly shop and where does the money we earn go to?
1. Unopened packages. The purchases that you made deliberately were tried on and chosen, and when you came home, without taking them out of the bag, you put them in the closet.
2. Irrational purchases. If you buy the seventh pair of shoes, and you already have five similar ones, this is a sure sign of shopaholism.
3. Relaxation. As soon as you quarrel with someone, you go straight to the store, because you feel much better there.
4. Adrenaline. When you buy things, you feel energized.
5. Shopping is a mystery. You do not discuss with your loved ones that you love to go shopping, but you hide everything that you acquire.
6. Forgot your credit card. If you suddenly forget your credit card, then you start to get very nervous, what if in the store you will like a good thing, but there is no money.
7. Feelings of guilt. When you go shopping, you feel like you are doing something forbidden, and this can be followed by trouble. If at least four points you find a match for yourself, then you are a shopaholic.
How to get rid of this addiction?
• Try to find a hobby that can distract you from shopping.
• Track yourself and identify what drives you to shop. It can be an emotional state or an event.
• Make it a rule that you will go to the store in the event that you need to buy a specific item and take the amount of money for exactly one of this purchase.
• Get help. Ask your friends or people close to you to control you. With support, you can believe in yourself.
