Abstract: | Compulsive buying disorder is a condition characterized by repeated episodes of unnecessary, excessive purchases. These behaviors
are frequently accompanied by negative mood states that are reduced by compulsive buying. Those with compulsive buying disorder
are also observed to have a number of highly comorbid disorders. This clinical presentation creates a complex set of symptoms
of which clinicians must be mindful when approaching the treatment of compulsive buying. The present article examines previous
literature about compulsive buying disorder and outlines the use of an empirically supported cognitive-behavioral approach
to treating compulsive buying. |
