Re: Shopping to lift my spirits - December 6th 2021, 07:44 PM

I know I shop too, but for me my bipolar can lead to impulsive spending. Make sure shopping and spending money don’t become all you think about. It’s okay to buy yourself nice things though if you’re able!
I agree about minding your budget and setting aside money each month for “serotonin,” aka buying stuff that isn’t a necessity but will make you happy. If you’re low on cash, think about if it’s something you need and will use more than once, or if you can wait until you have more money.


Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
