What are the reasons you shop?
Do you ever consider shopping your "therapy"?
What are your favorite stores?
I shop because:
1. I want to.
2. I can.
3. It makes me happy.
4. I like pampering myself when I can.
5. Eases stress for the moment.
Yes, it is a therapy for me.
My favorite places are:
1. Target
2. Charlotte Russe
3. Old Navy
4. Victoria's Secret
5. Pacific Sunwear

i shop when i have extra money to spend. i shop because i want to, it makes me happy especially when i'm down, i like to paper myself too, makes me forget about things that are bothering me. so pretty much for the same reasons as you. i like to shop at
Kohl's, Debs, Gadzooks, Wet Seal, and Hot Topic.

I love to shop and i think it's a form of therapy for me. When i feel sad and confused, I go shopping. When i'm happy, i go shopping... I go anywhere and i will buy what I want... In the end, i reach home with a smile on my face. I'm much happy and contented after shopping at the mall, either alone or with friends... :)

Ditto. It's a wonderful feeling to be able to get what you want for yourself.
