it all makes sense now.im diagnosed.

hmm..been about more than 3 months since ive been in Melbourne..yet, havent actually felt the Emo Emoness  that most ppl often say that they will feel being away from home...n thus  this makes me wonder why..

finally, today i came to realise wat is wrong with me already...

"Feelings of emptiness, low self-esteem, insecurity, boredom, loneliness--or the pursuit of ideal image--can lead people to shopping addictions"

(okay fine.the word addictions SHOULD be there)

                                                                          Treatment for Shopping addiction.

'Retail therapy' has been listed as an official mental disorder, in a reference guide for US psychiatrists.

                                    The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 2007

MAYBE,POSSIBLY,CONFIRMED,CERTIFIED: I am diagnosed with a psychiatric  disorder.

BUT

hang on, look at this.

 

"However, it's not all doom and gloom for compulsive female shoppers; in the book, 'Keeping Your Brain Young', US doctors Guy McKhann and Marilyn Albert  argue that the reason women are generally healthier and live longer than men can be attributed to them hitting the shops"

                                                         US doctors Guy McKhann and Marilyn Albert 

 

 

SO,

 

do we shop MORE or WHAT????????? :D

lol. shopping is the cure for loneliness huh? i wonder if this remedy works for guys too. sorry, i just bumped into your blogger while searching for pictures that represent loneliness for my facebook profile pic. apparently, the word loneliness in your entry lead me to your site. well, im glad to read that your "diagnosis" is not cancer. it would be sad to see someone as pretty as you have cancer. =)
