Weird?
I feel a little panicky when I am surrounded by too many things.
It's a bit of a joke in my family that I'll throw out just about anything...that I'm like...the ANTI-clutterer. But recently, thinking of packing, I'm a bit freaked out because even though my family insists that I have the bare minimum (they are really wrong, they don't know...I just keep everything organized and put away) I feel like I need to hurry up and get rid of half of it because I just have TOO MUCH STUFF.
I don't know why it gives me such an uncomfortable feeling, but I sure don't like it. If this is psychology of some sort, ugh...I can't tell the reason. I've figured out a lot of my other quirks but the really hating to have too many possessions...it just feels like things get out of control too easily if you have too many things around to remember/take care of, even if they're just sitting in a closet or drawer. It's like...you kind of put a liiiiitle bit of yourself into every thing you own, so if you own too much, you're spread too thin.
No, that makes no sense. I just know I feel weirdly awesome after getting rid of a lot of stuff, lol. My dad says it makes him sad to see me do it, but that makes no sense to me.
