hey.
i understand how you feel, i usually turn to food when i'm upset about something.
Its okay to shop to make yourself feel better, if thats what works for you then thats okay. ALl you need to do is learn to limit yourself.
Before leaving your house to go shopping, take some of the money out of your wallet. Tell yourself, "okay, i'm only going to brin $75" or how ever much money you want to bring. Doing this stops you from spending too much money, and it might even force you to buy the stuff you really want/need because if you have extra money you'll buy anything just because you can.
If you just want to not shop as much, maybe you can try to take up different hobbies or plan stuff with friends that does not require you going to the mall.
hope i helped =]
