Too many petty theft crimes!!!?

in 2002 i committed and was convicted of a burglary crime. i failed to have it exonerated. on june 2005 i committed a petty theft (misdemeanor) the DA brought back the facts for 2002. then on jan2006 again i a "petty theft with priors", which my PD was able to get me 120 days of week end work release program, i'll be done mid april...like a brain dead human that i am on feb28th of 2007 i repeated this offsence of "petty theft with priors" i was bailed out and courts on march 29th. i have no $$ to retain a private attorney and im in violation of course of my formal probation. this is obviously a compulsive obsesive behavior and it only occurs in stores. its almost like a high, the adrenaline rush but now the consequeces stakes are too scary for me to think about...does anyone have any legal knowledge....besides telling me i need a shrink...by the way i did look up a counseling ctr prior to my court appearance i hope this will be in my favor b-4 the judge and DA........cuffed4lif
