Shopping has evolved from being just a necessity to a form of therapy for many young people. 

It is commonly used as a way to improve mood when feeling stressed, bored, or unhappy. The excitement of buying something new, like clothes, gadgets, or accessories, provides a temporary escape from negative feelings. Retailers often take advantage of this by offering discounts, limited-time deals, and personalized recommendations, making it harder for people to resist spending.

However, while shopping can provide short-term happiness, it can also lead to long-term issues. Impulsive buying can cause financial strain, particularly for young individuals without stable incomes. Accumulating debt and overspending can escalate stress, leading to a vicious cycle. Moreover, the constant desire for material goods may shift focus away from addressing deeper emotional needs.

Despite these risks, shopping remains popular because it offers instant gratification. Social media and influencers contribute to this trend by promoting new products, which makes young people feel pressured to keep up with the latest trends. Fear of missing out (FOMO) causes them to spend money they don’t have, believing that purchasing certain items will enhance their social status or self-esteem.

To avoid the negative effects of shopping, individuals should adopt healthier coping mechanisms for stress, such as exercising, practicing mindfulness, or spending time with friends. Learning to differentiate between genuine needs and wants can also lead to better financial decisions. True emotional well-being comes from balance and self-awareness, not from accumulating material possessions.
