So I have a problem where I obsess over stuff. It's really destressing and makes me do stupid things like taking all my possessions and putting them on the floor. It's not like I have a whole lot of stuff, but I have all these things that I obsess over.

I'm constantly organizing and reorganizing, pulling them out, putting them back in, reorganizing, and trying to find a way to downsize what I do have. Part of me really wants to just stop obsessing over it and just give it all away or sell it.

Because it's like 90% of it I've never used anyway. But a lot of it is stuff that I legitimately could potentially use in some kind of a situation. But it's like books I've never read, tools i've never used; but I keep them because I think someday I really will read them or use them.

Because I really do want to read them. or have some use for them.

But every time I sit down with a book, or whatever it is that I have, I just get really agitated and I can't focus, and I just get up and leave. So years go by, and those books have never been read or touched. But again, I don't have a lot of stuff. There's this freedom that I want to have, or I think that I would have, and I probably would, if I just got rid of all of it and just started again.

Most likely I wouldn't even rebuy any of that stuff and I shop online and in stores constantly, trying to find the perfect items that will solve some problem that I think will last forever but I usually forget it.

I try minimalism but i obsess over that too.
