it did me great. it helped. the only setback is, you need cash, lots of it, to be able to shop more and more and more. as long as I don't get broke, I don't have to be depressed or feel guilty after doing a major shopping spree. just feel like sharing this to you all... :) have a nice day!

Hi kquiming,
We're on the same boat! I'm a shopaholic myself and shopping is a great de-stresser for me. Though at the start of 2009 I adapted a frugal living. But sometimes, i really have to have time for myself and embrace this indulgence...

We all have our ways of getting out of a broken heart..how about joining my discussion.. on writing 5 things a day on what you are grateful for? you write every nite before going to bed..what 5 most important things that you were grateful for today..nothing in detail..just write 1 - 5..a sentence of what u were grateful for..u will be surprised how your life will change..for the better.

Well, shopping makes me feel good too but I haven't really shopped seriously for quite some time and I would love to do that one day. But as you said we need cash to shop and in times like this, the cash better stays in my bank account!

i agree! whenever i'm feeling down, all i wanna do is buy something and go for a retail therapy haha. although it makes me feel good after that but when reality kicks in..oh well, i guess that's life- full of ups and downs. have fun shopping!

everyone will find out a way to save the broken heart.Someone may find friends to have drink, someone may go out for travel, someone may go for shopping..... I really do like travel and shopping, but both of these two needs a lot of cash.

It's also one of the things that makes me stress free but when I have no money, It helps also to play my favorite sports! LOL!

I make sure that if I am upset I take very little money with me. This would be my window shopping time! LOL One time I got upset with my husband and went and bought a flat screen TV! Since them I decided that it doesn't work for me to be well funded when I'm upset and shopping! He still laughs about it and says "Maybe if I tick you off we'll get a nice new addition to the house!" ROFL
Sorry doesn't wont work next time!
