Shopaholics - Take Heed!!!

ANYTHING can kill you - even shopaholism. Seriously. Check this out... http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/around_town/shopping/Shopaholic-Dies-in-Avalanche-of-Clothing.html Do you know anyone like this? I do. She bought EVERYTHING she saw, practically. She had multiples of telephones, answering machines, small appliances, whatever. If it was on sale, she bought it - and it sat in her kitchen still in the original boxes. You couldn't eat at her table because it was covered with acquisitions. You couldn't use the counters for the same reasons. Several kitchen chairs were piled high. But, she didn't pay her bills - she shopped. She almost lost the house twice for non-payment of taxes and cried how she had no money. Yet, she continued to shop and wouldn't sell or give away anything she'd bought. It's as much an addiction as anything else. But, until this, who'd have thought it could kill?? So, is this you? Is this how you want to go? Is this how you want to be found?? Are there any "Shopaholics Anonymous" groups out there? Please don't let this happen to you!
