Hi,
I had my LO 15 months ago and have recently been diagnosed with PND and PTSD from the pregnancy.
I take antidepressants and have been told to seek counselling however, I don’t feel ready for that step yet.
My partner is fab, really understanding and helpful and is a hard worker. He recently had a promotion at work with a substantial pay rise however, we are no better off as I have recently turned to shopping all the time!
I go to sleep thinking about what I can but for our boy, I wake up thinking the same - I’ve spent a fortune this month online.
I start looking initially because I’m feeling down, I get excited when I find something and going through the process of buying it. As soon as the payment goes through, I feel terrible again. Then in a few days time when the item arrives, I’m happy again...
It’s a never ending cycle.
I’m not sure how to stop. Fortunately, we are not in any financial difficulties but we would have so much more money if I stopped.. help 🤞🏼
