Thank you everyone, I really do appreciate your time to answer my post xx

Thank you, it’s eating awa at me but I will try and forget it x

Thank you for your reply, I’m ringing my GP on Monday. No items were damaged and no loss to B and Q. I’m just so ashamed of the accident I had I felt so degraded when I asked for help. I feel so much better for sharing this and I’m so happy to make a donation. You have made me feel a lot better and I thank you for that x

Hi, first of all like everyone that gets caught, I’m very very ashamed of myself but glad I got caught. Let me just explain as quickly as I can, not wanting sympathy or anything like that. 2019 I got diagnosed with breast cancer (that’s when it started) I for some reason started stealing things of little value to give to the charity Brest cancer research. This has continued until I released I needed help. I’m showing all the symptoms of Kleptomania but too ashamed to get help. I also suffer with Crohn's disease. I went to B and Q to get a few items, then I had the urge to steal things I didn’t need. To cut a long story short, I got caught and escorted to a little room. I told the security guards I needed the toilet as I have Crohn's disease, he just ignored me and told me to sit down, I constantly told him I really needed to toilet and showed him my medical card but just got ignored. I can’t remember everything he said because the inevitable happened (i soiled myself) I just remember him saying I would get a fine from CRS for £218 because the items I hadn’t paid for came to £31. As a Crohn’s sufferer I’m used to accidents but so upset this happened when it could have been avoided but that’s not my concern. I’m now worried about the fine, I have little income and don’t know how I’m going to pay it. I can’t sleep for worrying, I darn’t leave the house, but I know I’ve brought this on myself so I deserve everything I get.
