Answers:
Are you old enough to get therapy on your own.? Keptomania is stealing things that you have no use for. It is a sort of adrenaline rush and becomes addictive. Can you talk to a school counselor. You have good ambitions, but it you keep this up you will be arrested one of these times. That will prevent you from having the career you want. Please you need to get help, it doesn't get better it gets worse without help. This is worth telling your parents about even though they have dealt with issues. Your life is most important and your problem may affect it.Health Question & Answer
