Hoarding is a mental health disorder-my mom became one after losing a child, and my sister became one when her father practically disowned her in childhood. Often times, people become hoarders after great loss (like a fire) but they never get the mental health help they need to process their loss. It’s heartbreaking. That said, growing up in a hoarded house has made me the opposite-I need the control of a minimal/essential home to thrive.
I like your little house set-up and i like looking at other tiny house designs. Its kinda like looking at doll houses. Three years ago i had to relocate (long story). After 30+ years i had tons of clothes and other things that i had to go thru. I really needed to simplify and give away, donate, sell or just plain toss. I was a pack rat like my grandma and my uncle. Everything was just getting out of control. It wasn't easy but i ended up getting rid of approx. 75% of my stuff.i had to be 'heartless' plus i had an older sister to nudge me along. There's some things i would've liked to keep but most stuff i turns out i can live without. I now live back in the area i grew up in. I rent an apartment that i guess qualifies as tiny 42 x 13. It's an old building that used to be a nursing home. I've lived here just over two years and I've managed to keep it fairly simple. Not quite minimal but simplified. Don't know if it'll ever happen but one day I'd like to have a tiny house of my owm.
It sounds like you've done a lot of amazing work. (thanks goodness for sisters!!) ...you can totally have a tiny house of your own.... keep dreaming and start taking action toward that dream. Maybe this video will encourage you...ruclips.net/video/St33HyuBbQA/видео.html
@@thepowertogetwealth Thank you for the reply. Sometimes i think of starting to save and to put a little at a time every week/or month etc but that's as far as it gets. I'm stil a pack rat and I like to hold onto things. Maybe one day in my next life it'll start happening 😂 btw my sister is much older than me and I call her a cross between Martha Stewart and Cinderella. She's always cleaning something and she's always organizing or painting a bedroom or whatever 😂
“Stuff building up is noise.” That’s a perfect description of how I feel about clutter. Nice message.
Thanks for watching - I'm so glad to hear those words resonated with you.
