Shopping Addiction

ADHD? There's usually a link.

Some suggest it's best to exchange it for an addiction which isn't as harmful. Shopping is tricky - the definition of need vs want is blurry. Our society reinforces and rewards spending. You could try a video game which involves shopping without actually spending? But agree with Fiona, first it might be important to understand how you feel rewarded.

Thank you. Diversion to something else that gives the same buzz seems good advice. It might not even need to be an addiction as such.
