Keep Calm & Shop On!

How does one cope with the breakup? When tears engulf your eyes and you’re in need of an ointment to pacify the immense pain. Teary eyed, you lean on your best friend’s shoulder. Drenched in pain, your faith in humanity has vanished in disbelief. Your friend tries her level best to resurrect and restore it back. She desperately wants to see you smile. But nothing seems to work to revive back those beautiful feelings of love. She is also feeling terrible and racing her mind to figure out a solution.
Suddenly, she screams her heart out and says, “Let’s go shopping!” A disruptive idea pitched to you which she thinks will work. You are sure that might turn out as an asinine idea. Still, when you run out of options then you just give it a try. So that’s how you fell for retail therapy suggested by your best friend without even realizing that how could it act as a healer.
Recent studies have shown that retail therapy is the way to vent out your emotions on something constructive. Psychology says that your impulsive behaviour leads to retail therapy. It can be a coping mechanism. Maybe you end up buying a lot only to regret it later. But nothing is too costly if it ends up giving you a priceless smile.
So keep calm and shop on in your favourite shopping destination when you’re perplexed at your own behaviour. Being a shopaholic can rejuvenate your mood which was ailing sometime back.  Last but not the least; don’t forget to thank retail therapy. Oscar Wilde once quoted, “Crying is for plain women. Pretty women go shopping.”
