Unhappy, I was just thinking this morning how I have accumulated too much "stuff"! I have a small house, to which I intentionally downsized and downpriced several years ago. I hired an auction company, when I sold the bigger house to sell most of my stuff. Now, I seem to have just filled up this small house too much. I too have social anxiety, would rather be alone than subject myself to social situations. I take a kind of pleasure/comfort in buying things I "need." I'm procrastinating in the impending job of cleaning out my garage, where now there is just a small walkway to the outside! (Like on the Hoarders TV program!) Thankfully, I don't allow debris to collect in the house, and take some pride in keeping a clean and clutter-free environment, but the garage and additional storage building (which I've bought since moving into the smaller house!) have filled up and have become impassable. When I think of the task of the garage/storage bldg, I become overwhelmed!
