There is such a fine line with meds, yes we dont want a low level on going depression but we also dont want to stay on the hypo line... So damn hard to find that good content middle ground.  |

I have done very stupid things like buy a brand new car in October 2017 when I had a perfectly fine 2014 model of an SUV that I barely drove between 2014-2017 (because I was living in Boston at the time and didn't need a car to go places). So basically, the SUV was brand new with very, very low mileage on it. And I had bought this new car for NO reason, other than "oh cool. Look! A hybrid!" (I believe I made a post on here in 2017 about my stupid decision to do that.)
Fortunately, my sister needed a new car because hers sh_t the bed around the same time, so I just sold it to my parents for a chunk of change. They let me live in their house rent free, so I just told them to give me a check for some money because my bank account was shriveling up. There was NO WAY I could afford two car payments a month. It was almost $600 a month between the two! And while that was going on, I was still paying off $1200 a month in student loans with my payment plan!
I think that's what I have to watch out for... the BIG impulsive purchases. I don't want to buy a new car again, or I'll be stuck in the same situation... My current car is 3 years old and it has only 15,000 miles on it... so only 5000 miles a year. Same situation as before.
