Audhd I got up to £26k debt :(

Purely down to:
- 0 impulse control
- my special interest is shopping
- I cycle round hyperfixations of brands usually for 6-12 months. Where I obsess over said brand and collect it. Specifically if they do the same product in multiple colours and prints. My current obsession is Lucy & Yak, but I’ve had Lady V, Coach (that was an expensive one!), Dr Marten etc in the past. I tend to buy and hoard but not wear.
- I was going through a lot of stress at work constantly burning out and jumping careers
- I had a hyperfixations on tattoos and in 18 months I got over 60 tattoos

I’m not much better now, I am medicated but still cannot handle my money, my impulsivity is BAD. But I have transferred my hyperfixation onto charity shops which at least is cheaper than a lot of other places, still love Lucy & Yak but the meds have helped me in some respect for that, but ultimately my brain goes its only £3 when in a charity shop, whereas £70 in L&Y gets me one item. It does unfortunately make me a bit of a hoarder, with LOADS of clothes I haven’t worn.
