Stumbled upon this site and I’m wondering if others feel they are looking for something that doesn’t exist. Compulsive shopper thinking I will find something that will make a difference in my life. Really don’t know how long I’ve been doing this and curious if this is common. Thanks

I don’t go OTT with shopping (Ok, I do occasionally) but I do draw comfort from material things. Either sentimental or new, an old ring or new clothes. I know I selfish or materialistic but if it helps it helps
I know I sound***
Sometimes I browse online shops and buy something “that I’ll surely enjoy” and then never look at it again. I am kind of looking for something I know doesn’t exist, at least for me, but the unknown gives me a tiny bit of hope. Anything can happen until it happens, but at the same time the waiting is killing me.
isnot,
well you have stumbled on something different that’s for sure 🙂 a lot of problems and pain and humor, best part is were all in this together exchanging thoughts and sharing experiences. everyone should visit this site at least once. some never leave!!!
would like to thank you. Feel the need to say I’m 58 and I have been hospitalized twice in my life. Physically abused by my father, taken away by the state into foster homes. Met my husband who was so patient with me and even taught me how to say “I Love you”. he passed away after 23yrs of marriage and three beautiful successful sons. I feel like such a burden to them. Especially my middle son who has no idea what he’s got as a mother. Chronic pain as a result of (beatings as a child?) several car accidents, one which I fractured my neck. Multiple so called natural issues. Always feel terrible like I’m feeling sorry for myself when there are people much worse off. I was always financially self reliant and can’t even keep a job now. Have had over 20+ surgeries and don’t keep track any more. Can’t help feeling like my sons might miss me or be angry for awhile but would be much better off if I were not in their lives. Pretty classic, right
