I am ashamed of the things I bought and thrown away and just straight up wasted the past year.
I'm talking tons of clothing I have never worn and just threw away (not even donated. Ouch), never compared prices when buying something, paid dumb prices for dumb shit (like brands), have 10 of all the same things, ordered shit on Amazon I never even opened... it was BAD and I have spent THOUSANDS. I was guesstimating and came to over 10.000$ for stuff I never used more than once.
Money had no worth to me. I didn't care about "a couple hundreds" and I am NOT RICH AT ALL. I used up all my savings and every penny I had left.
Luckily I let that past me - I had a horrible time and I got totally manic and psycho with buying stuff. Now I am reusing, reducing, recycling, thrifting, and repairing or selling instead of throwing away.
However I have extreme guilt about spending so much money in the past year. I'm so disgusted with myself. :( I did not value money at all and that ashames me.
How do I deal with that?
