"Shopping can be a response to obsessive or addictive behaviour. Psychologists have recently identified a pathological condition known as 'oniomania', or 'compulsive shopping', defined in the american psychiatric association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders as an obsessive-compulsive disorder. People with oniomania find their shopping is out of control; they buy more than they need.......coming home with bags full of things they could not resist."
