The findings? It is not our Compulsive shopping, disorders, tractors, oh my! One of my most effective fault. We can't help ourselves from binge shopping and overspending because our brain chemicals are out of balance. Dr. James Mitchell of the Uni- versity of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences says these brain chemicals get fouled up when we anticipate buying some- thing. surge. And what is it that relieves this unbearable pressure? Why, shopping, of course. Buying stuff, shopping, spend- ing money -- all of these activities are the equivalent of releasing a pressure valve to allow our brains to function optimally. It only stands to reason, then, that the more we engage in these activities, the healthier we will be. Our hearts pound, and our brains Perhaps you read about Betty Jean Barachie of Kunkletown, Pa. This woman had a brain surge to end all. During her eight-year shop- ping binge, she bought many, many things, including 3,000 books, 58 coats, 16 chainsaws and a $25,000 John Deere tractor. Surprisingly, Betty Jean did not use credit cards to relieve all that built-up brain pressure. Nope, she paid cash for everything -- with the $1.5 million she embezzled from the credit union where she was the branch manager. A psychologist called as a witness at her trial testified that Betty Jean is a compulsive shopper and suffers from a buy- ing disorder that con- sumes her life. You think? I'm not messin' with you. This story is true, and so is the study. I con- cur that compulsive shopping is real. Even for Betty Jean, who by the way is a real person and really did embezzle a boatload of money and spent every last penny, causing the credit union to go bankrupt. It's a personality trait that never goes away, but over which the afflicted can choose to take control. Sadly, the minute you think you've got it licked and you let your guard down, beware. That's when it is most likely to rear its ugly head. Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate At the very least, she needs to return the tractor. behavior modifiers is to always remember that even when it feels as if I have no choice but to act compulsively, I do have a choice. I can turn around and walk away. Of course, picturing the entire read- ership of this column staring at me works won- ders, too. Believe me. Betty Jean had 27 months in prison to think about her choices -- not nearly long enough, if you ask me. Just think of her fellow employees who had their lives turned upside down because of her choices. As for restitution, I hope she was required to make restitution for all she stole, including insurance payouts to make the depositors whole.
