I was able to cancel a bigger purchase before it shipped. That should be good to get us to the next payday. The rest of the items would be a waste to send back (because of return shipping costs) or they won't offer a refund on auction sites.

I've read this is a major symptom of Bipolar Disorder. I just thought I liked to shop. Thankfully I'm into the couture punk/grunge look so almost all my family's clothes are primarily recycled or it could be a lot worse.

Ugh, I'm just frustrated with myself right now. My husband was trying so hard to not be angry. Poor guy. When, I look back, and the bipolar wasn't so bad, he used to let me spend what I wanted as long as it didn't drain our bank account to nada. That was even before we were married. Now we have to file for bankruptcy.

Did some of you kind of embrace your bipolar diagnosis at first because your life started to make sense for the first time in a long time?
