I spend unreasonably when manic. Recently, for instance, my husband told me he would take my debit/credit cards if I spent another cent. I either buy every single thing I want and think my kids want or donate the crap out of our money. I once donated $700 (of a poor, one income family) to a bizarre, charismatic ministry believing I was compelled by the Holy Spirit. I otherwise spend hundreds and sometimes into a thousand dollars in the wee hours of the morning when all sense is thrown out the window. It is a problem. I am otherwise mostly frugal.
