Any compulsion is a sign of some unresolved conflict unless you have Obsessive/Compulsive behavior. It’s your way of seeking a high, but the euphoria doesn’t last long. So you go out and shop again. (By high, I mean natural opiates that tell the brain we are happy.) You may have an imbalance, or need some counseling. For now, try to find some more constructive compulsion that doesn’t cost money! Take up a hobby or something.

I have the same problem! You have to learn to live like you are poor, even if you are not. Tell yourself you do not have any money or put the money in a savings account and put a block on it so you cant withdrawl. That way you cant use your debit card, and as for your credit cards, cut them up, close your account, or leave them at home.
