In reply to Reformed packrats--how to declutter?, posted by DannaB on December 27, 2006, at 22:58:43
Hi DannaB,
You are discussing one of my favorite subjects. I AM a recovering clutterbug. Books and internet resources actually helped me alot. I realized mine had to do with learned behavior and control issues. The problem was, my suff started to control me rather than the other way around. I had to start small and go slowly but I found decluttering my environment was REALLY REALLY helpful for me. It did require a paradyme change and for me, it needed to become a new "lifestyle".
I have not regretted anything I've tossed or donated despite thinking I may be making a horrible mistake when I began the process. Decluttering is very freeing.
Good Luck to you.
