Can you overcome shopping addiction?

This was me (err, although more grown up) a couple of years ago.

Until I knocked myself silly and decided that having the latest designer bag won’t define me.

I do still get tempted and believe me, with how I have been active in social media lately, circumstances make me backslide (like get that CC Cream which a blogger claimed would make you glow even in your “ngarag”* mode).

This book may help you beat your addiction to shopping.

Good thing I was given the opportunity to read a book which pretty much sums up one addiction we ladies want to resist: Stephen Howe’s Overcome your Shopping Addiction: The Guide to Beating your Addiction to Shopping and Ending the Shopping Addiction Cycle

Overcoming your Shopping Addiction: The Guide to Beating your Addiction to Shopping and Ending the Shopping Addiction Cycle

This book, which is a short guide to steps and ways – be they easy or drastic – that will make us understand why we have an overwhelming urge to shop and how to win against such need.

If you have a compulsive desire to shop, this word perfectly describes you!

Overcoming your Shopping Addiction: The Guide to Beating your Addiction to Shopping and Ending the Shopping Addiction Cycle made me learn a new word – Omniomania.

Omniomania is the term for the compulsive desire to shop. People suffering from onmiomania have an intense feeling to shop compulsively to escape feelings of emptiness, depression, anger and boredom. Most often, the omniomaniac’s purchases remain unused although she feels a certain high from planning her next shopping spree.

No one would admit to suffering from omniomania, but this book clearly defines signs that you are seriously an omniomaniac like:

Not having the self-control to resist a spending spree (especially if done regularly)
Buying stuff just because you want them badly (like that fifth lipstick you bought with the same color, just because! And I am not talking about myself here lol)
Going beyond your budget
Feeling guilty of splurging after shopping, although you do it all over again.

Compulsive addiction to shopping is a vicious cycle.

Compulsive addiction to shopping is a vicious cycle, and you have to jolt yourself into coming to terms with your addiction. This book details ways on how you can totally eliminate your shopping addiction by avoiding triggers like having the money to burn, stopping feelings of depression, anger and low self-worth. It also offers clear-cut, concrete steps to beat shopping addiction and how to keep it from coming back.

If you know anyone (and hey, it might be you!) having shopping addiction, please do read this book which is available over in Kindle format over at Amazon. It is pretty short, with an estimated 25 pages, but loaded with information and solutions.
