11 Signs You're Addicted to Shopping

So you love to shop, huh? Do you enjoy going to the mall on occasion or has your shopping habit turned into an addiction?

It's no secret that WWE Diva Nikki Bella enjoys the finer things in life, from Louis Vuitton bags to Louboutin heels, but on Sunday's episode of Total Divas you'll see Nikki take her shopping to the extreme!

We all deserve to treat ourselves to something nice every so often, but it's one thing when you're shopping for necessity...and another when you're just shopping for the sake of shopping!

Check out the 11 signs that you're addicted to shopping...

11. Shopping is a language.

To you, shopping has become a lifestyle complete with its own language and set of rules. (e.g. If you buy something and it goes on sale the very next day, you bring it in, return it, then re-purchase it at the sale price! Duh...)

The only other people who get it are fellow shoppers...

10. You're addicted to swiping plastic.

There's nothing quite like the feeling of swiping that credit card, holding your breath for several seconds as you wait for approval, and then voila! The items are yours.

Who knew that a small piece of hard plastic could buy you anything you want? Never mind the fact that you have to pay it all back later...

9. You feel empty when you're not shopping.

You're so used to shopping that it feels weird when you're not!

What on earth will you do with yourself? You feel empty, like those mannequins you buy clothes off of!

8. You're extremely defensive of your shopping habits to others.

When your parents give you a hard time and threaten to cut you off, you immediately start presenting them with way worse scenarios.

So what if you like to shop a lot? At least you're not doing heroin!

7. You're on the verge of financial ruin.

Your careless spending has proceeded to land you further in the hole and now you're barely able to keep up with the bills, let alone those monstrous student loans.

Sometimes you just want to run away and start a new life...

6. You freak out when an item you want isn't available.

You're so used to instant gratification from shopping that when (God forbid) an item you had your eye on isn't available, you freak out.

You know that feeling you get when you think the world is ending? Yeah, it's a lot like that.

5. You buy things you don't need.

Shopping has become second nature to you so you start to find that you're always buying something.

Places like Target and Costco are danger zones for you because everything is so cheap and you can't help putting anything and everything in your cart.

4. Shopping has replaced personal relationships.

You're happily single and barely see your friends anymore. Who has time for personal relationships when you're shopping?

Besides, when you get tired of a sweater, you can easily exchange it for another. Boyfriends, on the other hand, are another story...

3. Shopping is your workout.

The mall is like an extended version of the gym with all those escalators, stairs and heavy shopping bags you carry around like weights.

You've canceled your gym membership to save a few bucks, which will come in handy because heaven knows you need the money!

2. You never wear the same outfit twice.

You never wear the same outfit twice because you have so many clothes that you can't find anything anymore!

You've been known to buy the same thing twice because you can't even keep track of what you own...

1. Shopping is your therapy.

Shopping has become your answer to everything.

Angry? Sad? Happy? No matter what the occasion, a little retail therapy is always the answer!
