Online shopping & Impulse

This is something I still do and here is what I should do. If you take meds for adhd, if you think I will just wait for 20 minutes to kick in, do not go online shopping as your adhd reward centre will say you need this and you will end up buying stuff that you do not need and sometimes buy it twice. You will forget about it and when you get that pair of silver boots or inappropriate rhinestone dress ( thank god I waited see photo below, i probably would think it’s ok to go in the post office like that plus it’s over 300 dollars) you will think what the hell made me buy that. The other hack is do not run into your hairdressers demanding a haircut that is impossible to maintain see photo or demand a wolf cut and wonder why you look like Rod Stewart. Do not go to the post office in your pjs and say next time you see me, I will be wearing Gucci or demand to know if they know anyone that in their country of residence that sells rare gems and could you have their address. Forgetting that you have to face them at least twice a week because you work online. Do not use Temu as you will end up with loads of crap you do not need. MY TIP AND HINT is wait two days and if you still want those Prada sunglasses you can’t afford then look at something alternative that is cheaper but don’t use Temu as you will end up with sunglasses, welding gear, tattoo gun and everything you do not need. If you think you still need those sunglasses wait another two days. At one time after shopping on Amazon I ended up with four of the same tarot decks and 3 henna kits, this happens regularly so hopefully using app and taking my own advice, I will not be done the post office asking for chicken pot noodles …. Oh wait I already did that and I’d gone off pot noodles and he had bought the brand I like and stocked on shelf.

During my time at university and school I really liked to buy fancy clothes more than anything - didn’t have a clue I probably have ADHD and never heard of impulse buys… 💡💡wouldn’t it be great to have an ADHD Specific version of Craig’s list where you can sell off all the Magic stuff you accumulated by buying unnecessary stuff??🫠
