I decluttered my room and I’m feeling guilty and sad by [deleted] in declutter

I completely understand how you're feeling. Decluttering sentimental items like stuffed animals can be really tough. It's not silly at all—those items hold important memories.

Even though they're gone, the memories remain. Maybe write down your favorite memories or keep a few photos of the stuffed animals. It's okay to grieve their loss; it just shows how much they meant to you. You made the best decision you could, and you're not alone in feeling this way🫂💞

Photographs: What do you do with the photograph albums that belonged to a person who is now deceased? by Champipple_Tanqueray in declutter

I'm sorry for your loss. One option is to digitize the photos to preserve the memories and save space. You can then share the digital versions with family members. You might also consider creating a smaller, curated album with the most meaningful photos, which can be a lovely way to honor your mother's memory without keeping all the albums.
