I think I have Affluenza. I like buying various things to make me feel happy, but I always end up wanting more. I have been buying a lot of magazines on international relations and American comic books lately. Reading the magazines are useful for understanding the world today, and reading the comics are a good way to relax, but I feel guilty whenever I use money because I am still paying off my student loans.
To describe this, I've adopted the term "retail therapy" from somewhere or the other. I've been doing a lot of this kind of thing myself lately, mostly in the name of preparing for my vacation and future poor student life. On the bright side, there are far worse addictions to have.
I guess it isn't too bad, but I still don't like it about myself.
