Adler Theory

Habits are amongst everyone in the Country it could either be settled or a regular tendency that is difficult to give up. Everyone has a habit that migrated from childhood, which makes it difficult for him or her to change that habit the older they become. Habits can be positive, negative, influencing, and harmful depending on the habits and that person. When someone has been doing something for a long period of time weather it is dealing with stress, a family tradition, and etc. One’s personality forms the habits of his or her behaviors, however; in most cases some have a habit that has been formed as teens and adults rather than childhood.
One of my habits is shopping when I am in a negative stage of thought. I developed this habit by disappearing from the home whenever I was mad. I would drive to the nearest store or mall. I shopped because I felt the need to go seek what I did not have as a child. I did not have any support role models from my relatives because for a long time it was hidden. I use to watch television shows, videos and movies watching the celebrity trends such as Beyoncé, Michael Jackson, and Tina Turner. My relatives influenced my habit because whenever it was a family fight or disagreement they never once asked me where I was going and they never tried stopping me. This habit became a habit that I continue to live by at the present time, which I know is not a positive thing but with my stubbornness I allowed this habit to take control.
I continue this habit because I have been doing it for over a long period of years because this is the only way I could deal with stress from being mad. There has been a few times I have attempted to break this habit when I tried doing things such as, exercising, having more sex than usual, reading, spending time with family and friends, and taking my daughter to play in the park with my nieces and nephews but nothing worked.
