...See more I don’t know if anyone can relate, I’m putting this out there and hoping for some light. I can’t stop spending, I’m in debt. I emotionally spend and it’s bad. I owe too much money and I have 2 young children. I feel selfish and I can’t seem to control it. I’m ashamed and embarrassed, I don’t know how to fix it. I spend my money on Makeup and clothes, I tell myself it’ll make me happy about my self and it’ll make me feel better about my appearance, it doesn’t. The worst thing is, I know this… yet I cannot fix it. The car needs fixing, I don’t have the money… If I tried to use my card it’ll decline, I’m over my overdraft and owe the bank and Klarna. I’m absolutely ashamed at myself. I’m 36, I’m a grown woman, I’m not setting an example for my children.
