Sounds like you are an obseesed shopper. It can be from various reasons. Just be careful not to get yourself in debt. As you age, you will find that most of the things you have purchased you really dont need anymore

if you have enough to spend i guess it's alright to shop to your heart's content...but i believe that too much of everything is bad, so if you're buying things you dont need anyway and would probably just be wasting it, why not try buying things for others? this is only to satisfy your urge to buy things and at the same time you're helping someone else...in time you'll learn to control the urge, but before then, at least you've done something good for someone else.

I do buy stuff for other people as well and of course I feel better for buying stuff for other people, but I think what I need to do is just to take a limited amount of money with me so I cant buy anything lol.

If you have the urge to buy something everyday, you may have a shopping addiction, but I am not saying that you do because I do not know you to judge you. But usually if you have an urge and you have to get something there and then, then a shopping addiction may be possible. And if you have the money, there is nothing wrong with that.Shoppingis fun and if you have the money for it, your fine.
