Compulsive buying disorder is another way of saying that someone has a shopping addition.  Do you or someone you know having a shopping addiction?
would be me if i had money. do you have any facts for me about this disorder?
Ultimately, it is a compulsive disorder.  It is related to impulse control, or really the lack thereof.  I understand about the issues of money.  It's tough to have a spending disorder without it.  But many just run up credit cards for stuff.
oh yeah. then to be honest its not me, id just like to shop a lot but id never go so far as to run up a credit card. so yeah. what other things can you tell me about this disorder
There are three behavioral manifestations to it.  First is the attraction to it.  It is an excessive draw to leisure or products or simple purchases.  
okay what about the other two
Just continuing with this line for a moment: this excessive draw is different than just simple "window-shopping."  It is when one cannot simply look: they MUST buy.  It is the only thing they are willing to accept.  
ohh that is interesting. how many people does this affect a year?
