Do you think shopping can make you forget your pain for a while?

Hi Zhizho, I believe in what you said. Based on my experience as well, whenever I walked the hallway of malls and find a good treasure, my anxiety disappears. There was a time when I felt so low because of hormonal issues due to my period I just browsed through a bookstore and my mood was uplifted in an instant. I could say that shopping for books, dresses, make ups, accessories, etc are a good mood up-lifters!

Girls really love to shop and make it as diversion of their problems as I experienced and saw to my girl friends.

I believe, that the feeling of pleasure or joy, can overcome the pain. Maybe you've heard of music therapy. By listening to music, the patient gradually recovered.

Shopping really makes one forget pain or problems. I am also like that. Sometimes, I indulge in retail therapy when I am stressed out or when I have a problem. It is like a form of relaxation for some people, including me. Sometimes I don't even have to buy something or anything. Window-shopping also helps relax me and makes me happy.

Hi Zhizho, Congratulations! :) For me, walking or shopping is not bad at you or to a pregnant woman, as long as your doctor allow you. I think it is a good exercise. Since you are pregnant, most pregnant women don't like to stay at home for too long. It is nice to know that you can walk for a long hours, just be careful then. Good luck!

It seems that every girl like to shopping,I have a friends who just like you,when she feel unhappy she will go to all of the malls near her house and buy a lot of stuff no matter those stuff is useful or not. But as a man,shopping seems do not do a good impact to me,I just feel tired when I shopping,LOL. Usually I will go out and play basketball when I feel unhappy,that is very helpful for me,I will forget all my pain at that time.

I have heard many people say no matter what your .situation getting out and walking some is good for you, and will help make you feel better and help you to feel better about yourself as well. And even if money is tight and you take time to get out and shop for a while it helpsto to make you often feel better about yourself as well.

If we have more money, it's okay to shoping. But if we do not have the money, and forcing us to shoping, it would be bad.

i think shopping is the hobbies for mostly of women.. it can reduce their pain or stress when they go shopping.. maybe it works to some women..but for me, one of reducing the pain or work stress maybe go to internet or play futsal..

Each of them have different ways and different activities to make them good or to get relief from the pain you have and those activities varies from one to another. Shopping really gives me a good time and it helps me to change my boring time a good wonderful one. Those shopping hours becomes a wonderful one when my friends are with me. My friends takes me to a different world which brings fun,enjoyment and a good time.

Hi friend, good to hear that you are pregnant, congrats for it, I think you like shopping a lot, so only you forget about your pain while you are in shopping mall, different kind of people have different interest and they forget about their worries while enjoying with their favorite things
