I don't know why I have the urge to shop. There are some times where I get "obsessed" with a specific thing and then I go out and buy everything related to that thing. It's like I see a YouTube video or an ad online, and then I say to myself, "wow, that's so cool. I'm going to buy a bunch of stuff!" even though I barely know anything about said product(s). It's really impulsive and I don't know why I've been doing it lately. I mean, these obsessions can form in as little as one hour. I don't even think about them; I just buy, buy, and buy some more...
Yes cancel your cards, do just your basic need of food , gas and meds and then give them to your Mom..

You dont want to saddle your self with large payments on credit cards monthly..
