British expert: online shopping addiction should be defined as mental disorder. How to prevent online shopping addiction?

In order to prevent online shopping addiction, the most important thing is to cultivate consumers to develop the concept of rational consumption and rational consumption. At the same time, it is necessary to standardize the consumption means and deliberate propaganda of some online e-commerce in the policy system to avoid guiding some people with imperfect consumption awareness to over-consume. This psychological barrier is also largely caused by the current pressure of life, so it is difficult for people to have time to go shopping. Online shopping has incomparable advantages over physical stores.

Convenient and fast, people don't have to waste too much energy. At the same time, due to the relatively developed express delivery industry, online shopping has been promoted. On the other hand, things that people are ashamed to buy in physical stores can also be bought smoothly through online shopping, which will also make these consumers less likely to fall into an embarrassing situation psychologically.

Moreover, we should increase the propaganda of social rational consumption, cultivate consumers' concept of rational consumption in many ways, and pay attention to their habit formation in this respect. As ordinary consumers, we should live within our means, control our money reasonably, and don't blindly follow the trend and buy things we don't need. You can make a reasonable plan for your expenses in the form of bookkeeping, and you can also avoid spending money indiscriminately.

In many cases, this form of online shopping has to rely on the network platform for some restrictions. At the same time, many consumers will collectively burst into online shopping because of some activities done by related platforms. Therefore, in this respect, these platforms have to improve themselves, and the publicity and guidance of related shopping activities should be reduced.
