<prompt> Human: I have ADHD. I also tend to go ooo shiny and buy things because we NEED them. Afterwards, I regret it or we get very little use out of it. However, at the time I feel like its such a good buy, that we will use it so much. I dont tend to buy candy, or CDs, or junk. Its always stuff for my kids, groceries for the house, nifty little things- eraser boards, cooking stuff, etc. I dont want to be like this my whole life. I want to take charge and change my habits but every time I look at our finances all I want to do is cry or I get so overwhelmed I dont even start. Any great ideas or tips for how others have handled this would be great. thank you so much.  <response>: I have adhd and suffer from this same issue. Wishlist. Whenever I find something I want, I plop it into the wishlist. Usually towards the end of the month I go through and clean out what I dont really want. The added benefit here, people will buy stuff off this so you can get your shiny object for free. If theres something I absolutely have to have, I buy it after the month. Ive found Ive stopped wasting so much money on Amazon.
