The other day I had to admit to myself and my husband that my shopping habit is an addiction!!
It was extremely hard to do and took a lot out of me because I have been hiding from it for a long time and pretending I had everything under control!!
I haven’t been able to admit the amount of debt that I have acquired and I need to handle it on my own!! I need to turn something positive out of something negative!!
There is a part of me that is afraid of the look of “disappointment” from my husband and feeling “broken” from his attitude toward me after he finds out!!
I occurred this debt through addiction and mental health issues and I have to face my demons head on ALONE!!
I have committed to sacrificing luxury items and put all i have into bill payments and paying debt off – no matter how long it takes me!!
I am currently looking to get additional jobs to pay off debts!!
Stay tuned for more….

I admire your courage to admit your addiction, to yourself and to the world in this blog.
You can do it. When you feel like yiu have to shop, grab a tablet and pen and get as far away from your temptation and just write. I have a feeling you will find your genius in these tough moments.
You can do it.
Thank you for your kind words and encouragement!!
