It's honestly probably kleptomania. It's a serious problem for a lot of people, and there's no way this woman needs to shoplift, she could probably afford everything she steals.

I liked to steal stuff when I was a kid, but when I did, I always felt extremely guilty and gave the stuff back.

What I did was develop a career in IT Security over the last two decades. I can "steal stuff" and get paid to do it. Kind of. (It's not malicious nor is it glamorous.)

When I was a teen, it was the challenge/thrill. Not saying I stole but saying if I had... This would have been why.

I did it to just see if I could. It was 30 years ago. But we stole t shirts or magazines. Nothing horribly expensive. It was "can we get away with this?"
