Yeah, it’s pretty common. I’m sorry that you’re going through a sad time
Is it sort of like a feeling of emptiness, that you’re trying to fill? If so, in my case I try to fill it with intellectual and creative ideas. It’s about generating a sense of peace and wonder within oneself and connecting with one’s inner strength __________________ If life is screwed up then find a tool and screw it down |

Socialization I think, I keep buying things that would be fun to use and share. Kind of feathering the nest.

That’s cool then if there’s a plan for what you’re buying
It’s nice to have nice things

I have been buying a lot of stuff that I think I need lately. Just ordering random things on Amazon.
I don't know if that's my mania popping up again, or just being prepared for the things I need. I feel you my friend, I know what this is like! __________________ Tales of Love, Motivation, and An Interesting Journey - Please Subscribe to my Website on WordPress: Inspired Odyssey's Path to Wellness and Love |

I keep thinking of the dialog from Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, about how people desperately buy things.
I like the stuff I have but I’d like it better sharing. I feel like a pharaoh living in his tomb |
