When I was a kid collected and hoarded everything. Now I'm older I've moved around and lived abroad a couple of times, so I don't have much stuff at all now compared to most people, but still I feel I have loads of stuff I should get rid of. Possessions almost make me anxious these days, to the extent I don't even like getting gifts that I'll feel bad getting rid of.
I've got loads of CDs. I play them and love having them, but I'm not a homeowner with space to keep stuff - I rent a small bedroom, but the thought of not being able to up sticks and go without having to sort through a load of things makes me anxious. The idea of having nothing feels really liberating to me but I think I've probably got some underlying issues going on..
