Long-Butterscotch-1411 karma

Hey Jim, Nick and Whitney! Listener of the show and love the awareness you guys bring to Mental Health.

Over the last few years, I’ve noticed that my spending has become a problem. I’m guess you could say I have a shopping addiction. I’m keep buying clothes, books, house decor, etc. that I do not need nor really have the money for. It has gotten out of control the last couple of months. I have a credit card that my significant other doesn’t have access to, but name is on the account. They looked at their credit history recently and saw the balance bring it up to me. I panicked and broke down from the guilt. However, I am still spending on it.

I want to stop this before it gets more out of control that I can’t stop it. What are some helpful ways to deal with this? Should I bring this up to my current therapist?

Thanks for all you guys do!
