Wanted to say 'hi' to anyone out there reading. I am new to this forum and looking for positive support and encouragement. I consider myself a recovering shop-a-holic and person with hoarding tendencies (I was not an extreme hoarder, but definitely have / had issues). Through much self reflection and internet reading and research, I have managed to turn my situation around over the past several years.

In true "perfectionist" fashion, I had a long email written up about my whole history of saving, etc., but decided to chuck that (no pun intended) and get something posted right away! :)

Thank you for this wonderful website!
