Figure. Pharmaceutical satire from the July/Aug 2001 issue of Adbusters magazine. The inset reads:
How do I know if I have Shopping-Related ICD?
· Recurrent failure to resist impulses to buy objects that are not needed and which contribute to personal financial or psychological harm and/or social or environmental harm.
· Increasing sense of tension or arousal immediately before committing the purchase.
· Pleasure, gratification, or relief at the time of committing the purchase.
· The purchase may be in response to a delusion, but must not be in response to a hallucination.
Experts now know that Shopping-Related ICD is an epidemic condition in North America, Europe and Japan. If you experience these symptoms, it's time to talk to your doctor about non-drowsy, 24-hour DOLORAX, the Shopping Solution™ most recommended by medical professionals*.
* Of those surveyed.
