I have been lurking for several months, I knew I had a problem, I was just in a really bad place mental health wise and wasn’t ready to face it. Posting today to help hold myself accountable. I have incurred debt that I am working on getting paid off. My problem is every time I pay something off I go and buy something else 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️.

I am also going to return some things I still can, work on selling some of the clothes and shoes I have that I don’t wear, and cataloging my wardrobe so I can track what I wear and what I already own. Hopefully this will help my break my cycle. My trouble is sticking to it though.
