Shopping is a therapy to many people..
We can see many people mainly ladies shopping around in malls and shopping centres.According to many psychologists shopping is one form of therapy to those who are stressed and disturbed mentally...

Yes, if we think in that angle..it's true, shopping is a therapy. Let me take my life as example. I am a house wife full time at home, alone, once my husband and daughter leave home. Once in a week we go for an outing, mostly for a small shopping. It's really a relief from a lonely world where am able to see the external world. Also, if we are purchasing according to our tastes, it will make our mind happy...as acting as a stress relieving factor, of course!!!
Sandhya yours is a normal happy family, but there are some women who are going through all sorts of complications in their lives and sitting at home drives them insane and they get even more stressed out .For such people going out and mixing with crowds and being able to forget worries at least for that little period time does prove to be a therapy...
Though my life is a normal life, since we are not at home town, I don't make much friends here. So no friends or relatives. That's why I am feeling very happy interacting with you people. So, even if leading a normal life I feel loneliness here. So outing once in a week is really refreshing me a lot!!!
You may be surprised sandhya, but that is the case with many these days.I hardly interact with people unless necessary since I am busy with my own life and as you say happy to be interacting with like minded people online rather than make obligatory conversation with others...
But sandhya, if we want human can control the desires too. You know here in visakhapatnam, there is a mall called big bazar. I think it is there in your state and place also. As summer is so hot. all the people who does not AC and power in home, they used to goto that mall for AC and do window shopping.
This is a therapy mainly to housewives who need some pretext to move from house. They may spend hours shopping. Malls are meeting points for many.
Possible ! however, it makes them a little more relaxed to have spent some time outside the house and come back in a better frame of mind.As long as they are careful in their spending and dont go overboard, there is no harm in window shopping or even meeting others and spending time with other people...
Yes this may bring the temporary happiness but sometimes it is helpful.I don't go to shoppig but definitely its like releiving stress when i go out with the friends in Malls. :)
Yes thats true, just being with people and watching them gives you a positive feeling .Shopping can be addictive if one is not careful, I see some women not missing a single sale ...
For me window shopping is more soothing than shopping itself, I do not have to spend any money and I enjoy to fullest. :laugh: :laugh:
Although I don't do it often, i too enjoy looking at various things on display and generally be rubbing shoulders with the crowd and be one of them.But I wouldnt do it on a regular basis..

Do you know we have malls nearby where we go for a stroll while tired sitting for long hours you know this is one good way of having a walk if you do not find time for a morning walk.

The bigger the mall the better for your health LOL...It can be very tiring if you are a serious shopper and going all over the place to find what you want !

You see being a late riser I go for such walks in a mall to avoid sun and also have a good stroll for half an hour or so during noon.
Yes,always we can use the space and we feel good to walk there.We can also do many things there.
hhaha I know what you mean by many things although, those many things are not meant for me. :laugh: :laugh:
Come on sir !! i meant the different stores... I also meant that what you understand :woohoo: :woohoo:
