Why am I Addicted to something so Sh**ty!!!!

Ok Crappy...Rotten...Silly

Yes I am a recovering nicotine addict but I am also a mini pack rat.

My neighbor --that --had never--ben in  here before expressed his discomft with my relaxed sytle of arranging my possesions thrpough his body language.....I come from a family of pack rats,smokers and OVERreactors!!!

WHY why can't I be addicted to somethinmg cool like painting murals where there are ugly dilapitated buildings or cutting my hair razor sharp and looking dangerous all the time...

So to me freedom is not just another word for nothing left to lose...it is quite the opposite... its a pile of paper...some jeans with sentimental value..Why can"t I be addicted to oak trees at midnight or seeing that perfect robin......cigarettes and piles of paper are SH**ty!!!! Quitting is cool...Finally I am doing Something Cool!!!!!!!!

You are doing something VERY cool! And being a pack-rat is much more awesome than being a judgmental neighbor 🐵

I can relate. I lived with a hoarder for 30 years. Wouldn't do that again.

If you have ever seen "My Strange Addiction" you will feel so much better about your addiction. Atleast you don't eat mattresses.
