hello lovelydame3000 We are exactly the same, i did it too, when i am drepressed i will go shopping, buy anything i want mostly cosmetics, i am addict with that. Play in game center and shopping shopping until i feel enough or i had no money anymore.LOL Stupid me, and after i went home i can fell happy anymore and confuse what will i do with my new stuff. My boyfriends always mad at me if i did that. God bless you http://beautycosmetictips.blogspot.com http://money-athome.blogspot.com

Hi little_angel! Nice to know that we do similar things when we are depressed. But so far i have not emptied my wallet while shopping. But i have often wondered what i am to do with the new unnecessary stuff i have purchased. Thanks for participating in the discussion.

I do not go for shopping when I am depressed because I have the tendency of finishing all the money I have when I am depressed. I might think buying that thing might help me solve my depression and I continue buying this things and that things. Once I had saved lots of money for many years, which I foolishly finished in just one day shopping when I was very depressed and sad. From that day onwards, I stopped shopping when I am sad or depressed.

yes, I've done that but i also end up spending a lot of money also. It's not always prudent to shop with your emotions.

when i am depressed its either i go online, hanging out with friends or watch my fave movie on tv. or sometimes just rest in my room. and if i could have enough money i go for window shopping, who knows i might end up buying some things too. right? yes. shopping do help put away the stressed we feel. thanks my friend. ... jhelai

retail therapy is my savior. this one employee at sephora knows me super well because thats where i go when im sad. she knows just which things will cheer me up. I dont know but theres something about new clothes or makeup or even a new hair style that automatically makes me feel better.
