I get obsessive, like really hung up one one or two different things at a time. I get this pet obsession sometimes and feel really awful about it afterwards. One time I ended up buying around 7 or 8 ferrets and three or four separate cages. Then I got really obsessive about the quality of food they were eating and did a ton of extensive research on it. I went to the petstore and about bought about 6 different kinds of high quality (expensive) foods for them plus a ton of accessories and even bought fleece at the fabric store to make my own hammocks and cage liners for them. That's not including stuff for the dog and cats. That's thousands of dollars right there. Right now, I only have one ferret and two cats and I feel bad because getting rid of all those pets really broke my kids hearts. Sometimes I really hate the fact that our episodes and behavior drag down the ones we care about the most, especially when it affects our children. Anyways, That was probably my most embarassing manic spending spree. Other things I obsess about and spend excessively on while manic include typical things like clothes and accessories.
