Hi I've also had a problem with compulsive spending along with binge eating,depression and anxiety but its getting really out of control at the moment.I had been getting my debt down but skyrocketing again.
Does anyone have experience of this and any tips to gain control again please.

Some antidepressants can affect impulse control. They are also used to treat some Alzheimer's patients and compulsive shopping has been found to be a side effect. It may be worth discussing with your GP.

My mum was on them for years before she passed and I only found out later- I always wonder now if that was part of the problem.
