Of all the bizarre anxiety issues I have to have this one... I don't know how else to say this but I am OBSESSED with labels on clothing and feel they always have to be PERFECT. no mistichings or crooked sewing or anything. If there are any, I feel like I am wearing something tainted and unpure. This is becoming a problem, because I find myself buying more and more of the EXACT SAME article of clothing only to keep finding different imperfections in these clothes. The main thing to understand here is that there is NOTHING wrong with these clothes. They wear fine and look fine, it's just this obsession with perfection I have. Like for instance, I once had a shirt, but the logo on the front was crooked, so now I ordered another one, even online, just received it, thought it was perfect, then noticed the label was missewn and then had to rip it out a bit to make it straight. It looks fine but there are some tiny tiny threads sticking out now, and I feel like I just ruined the shirt. Even considering buying ANOTHER one, just for another shot at perfection. How can I END this cycle?? Why can't I just be happy with it??
