I spent most my money shopping instead of paying rent?
I am late on my rent I live with my sister well I also lost my job I which is at the mall. I went up there and cashed my check and while walking I spent 60 dollars out of it and I only made $88 eh I was beating my self up on the way home especially because I have been so broke lately and have went without food and I do that yea i'll look cute while being broke but my sister has already threatened to kick me out on top of that I am suppose to come up with money for a flight to Charlotte because im moving there before the 23rd and I wont have another check for two weeks. what the hell is wrong with me and why did I do that my priorities are so out of whack I took the close back I did keep one shirt though, but I feel a little better because I have some money in my pocket for my rent I did kick my self in the A** on the way home and even harder on the way there to return them.

Discipline, my friend. You must act in a disciplined manner that is befitting of a young adult woman. Responsibility, discipline, persistence, education...these are things that will help you be successful in life.

the only thing you can do is take the clothes back to the shop and get a refund, if u cant do that get on ebay selling it. ps never cash your check at the mall again

The best definition I've seen of addiction is "doing a behavior to the detriment of the rest of your life." Eating is not an addiction until you do it too much. We need to shop...except when shopping is the goal to the exclusion of paying for the necessities. Take the clothes back. And put yourself on a "no unnecessary shopping" regimen. Get out of the mentality that you should treat yourself or look cute, and get into the mentality that you need to take care of business first. I'm guessing that after losing your job, you're down and depressed, and that you were trying to cheer yourself up. It didn't work... because the action you took to cheer yourself up caused more problems. You know your priorities are off... now it's time to get them back in line. You're letting your whims rule... you need to be in charge, not just a passenger in your own brain.
