Omg, the part about shopping addiction being more akin to an impulse control disorder that a serial killer has than an obsessive compulsive disorder is so true! Its like theres that urge to shop that can't be quelled until I go out and do it!

I am guilty of the shoe thing...I have at least 5 pair of shoes in my closet that I have never worn..but I will!! Soon!!!!
Seriously, I have gotten much better about compulsive shopping...since I went back to school, I don't have time to shop (except for film/paper and art supplies for school!).

This was totally me when I was addicted to MAC. Want a way to get over your addiction? I say get involved with poverty coalitions or free the children. It was such a wake up call.
