Kleptomania is considered to fall into one of the symptoms of an impulse control disorder.

Often used as a tension regulator

Kleptomania often creates feelings of :

Excitement, Tension, or Arousal before acting out

Pleasure, Euphoria, or Relief during acting out

Dysphoria ,Shame or Guilt after acting out

Secondary Symptoms of Obsessional actions and Obsessional thinking ,the Compulsions or drives

Obsessive thoughts drive a need to relieve tension and ease the suffering of the constant effort needed to control these intrusive urges and thoughts. Compulsive actions, act as a way of controlling these thoughts and so habits are formed and become rituals which in turn become a way of life.

I have listed some of the more common compulsive actions which often affect the individual suffering with Obsessional thoughts and urges

Trichotillomania - an almost uncontrollable urge to pull out or twist hair, which can result in hair loss and bald patches

Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) - sufferers imagine they have a defect in and part of their physical appearance, this leads to a need to frequently check themselves in the mirror or try to camouflage the body part (clothes, piercings, tattoos etc)

Kleptomania - a failure to resist impulses to steal objects not needed for personal use or financial gain

Compulsive sexual behaviour - uncontrollable sexual thoughts or behaviour

Compulsive shopping - excessive and unnecessary shopping for items which are often not even removed from the package or in the case of clothes ever worn.

Pathological gambling - Out of control  gambling that results in financial problems

Intermittent Explosive Disorder - violent outbursts of rage that can result in serious assaults and destruction to property

Pyromania - often over looked as a secondary symptom of obsession the uncontrollable urge to start fires, associated with a release of tension can obviously cause a great deal of trouble for the fire starter
