<prompt> Human: Ive been in and out of homelessness. Ive never had more than 3,000 to my name at any one time due to constantly getting right up to that point, then I lose a job, or something happens. Right now for the last month Ive been wavering at the 3,000 threshold but every time I go over I panic and buy things I need I want to get over this mental hurdle but Im having a hard time and I know this sounds really stupid. But making money feels good, having it makes me anxious. Like theres something I can lose. But if I spend it, well then I did not lose it. And Im used to being poor so having a couple thousand dollars feels like way too much. This isnt healthy and I dont know how to describe just how unsettling it is for me mentally because I know it sounds stupid to a lot of people. I dont know what to do.  <response>: This is not a personal finance issue, its a mental health issue. You need counseling for your anxiety problem.
