How do I stop my hoarding addiction?

[siseñor]

Seriously. I have eight windows open, all with even more tabs open. I feel like I'm drowning. As soon as I open one, it never leaves. I can't escape its clutches. I lay awake crying, clutching my pillow, praying to God each night that by some miracle the windows won't restore when I turn on my pc, even though I set them to. I can't even move, my pc is just so full of tabs. I try to open an application and my pc freezes, but I just can't stop. It's suffocating. It's a deep, unrelenting suffering that I doubt anybody could even begin to fathom. I know that one day, in the future, the tabs must go, but I just can't bear to think of it. It's killing me, softly.

What you need is a tab saving application. Depending on which browser you use, you can save all those open tabs and create groups that you can sort by day, subject or any topic you want.

Check your browser's add-ons to see whether you can find something that suits your needs. Good luck.

i'll start hoarding even more using the application, thank you very helpful

I have that same problem


Safari would reach its 500 tab max and I hated it it. I’d search through them all and painfully delete the ones I liked least if I wanted to open another tab. I recently discovered private safari and it got me around the 500 tab maximum. My brother recently deleted all my 500 tabs though and it stressed me out but not anymore.


And also you should see if you have OCD, compulsive hoarding is very difficult to get rid of when compared to normal hoarding. I have OCD and I very much do have attachment to small things

When it comes to crying if it’s that bad get rid of your computer completely and you’ll feel a lot better and go back to the old phone system where you call your friends

Save interesting websites in your “favorites” list. Then they’ll always be there when you want to see them again, but the pages won’t have to stay open all the time.

Why do you have so many tabs? Why do you feel you need to keep them all open... can't you just search up what you want to search up and let go of it?

[siseñor]

but what if i forgetttt & what if i want to come back to ittt

[Changiis07]

Then try not to forget or try to write down the website in a notebook so that it won't freeze

[siseñor]

AAAAAAAAAA

[Changiis07]

There's a solution to everything, don't drown yourself. Take baby steps if needed

Realize that it's a worse suffering for your pc than you. If you're good person, you'd stop doing this.
