You're trying to cure the symptom, not the disease. You need a therapist, not financial advice.

You know what you're doing is unhealthy but you can't stop. A good mental health professional can help you deal with the pain you're trying to cover up with buying junk.

I think it’s worth a try, On the other hand, figurng out how to deal with symptoms also counts as helping the patient.
And in this case, paying for the therapy is both an expense and an investment, which is probably a great combination.
