I have an overwhelming urge to unburden my heart by giving away all my possessions?

Just the things that I don't NEED. I would keep sentimental things (such as my grandmothers jewelery) the toys my daughter still uses and the clothing we use.

I wouldn't keep MOST of our clothing. 90% of what my daughter and I have including shoes bags etc.. does not get used. Entire floor to ceiling built in wardrobes are full. We don't use most of it. I have so many nick knacks and bits and pieces, jewelery, craft stuff and beads worth up to $10,000 or more alone, bits of antique and vintage jewelery, glassware and trinkets that I bought and never looked at again... as well as a lot of furniture, an extra fridge etc..

Every time I go into a shop I find a reason to buy something I saw - a reason to convince myself its ok to buy it! I KNOW - SHOPAHOLIC!!! lol but I am not broke, don't use credit cards don't have debts etc... so I am not one of those... I KNOW I do it. I don't want to do it but I do.. for some reasons I like the feeling of being able to buy whatever I want and I love getting a bargain. Its not a bargain though if you didn't really need it and never use it!

When I spring clean my house I feel refreshed and positive like a weight has been lifted but the feeling always disappears.

I want to do this but I cant get over the feeling that I am throwing MONEY into the bin. A lot of stuff is new, unused even valuable

There is so much it would take me a year and a day to sell it all online on ebay. You need to take pics, upload them , fill it the sell an item forms for each little thing, wait for the pic to upload, list item, wait for it to be processed, wait for it to sell, send invoices, buy envelopes, fill them out, send item off at post office, wait for feedback leave feedback...you get the drift!

I don't have time for that.

I cant get over the fact that I paid for this stuff thinking I needed it or was getting a bargain, then I go and throw it out. I may as well have just taken the money from my purse and put it straight into the bin.

I am a single mother, I don't have money to spare but I do OK with what I have and I'm not complaining but I cant let go of thousands and thousands of dollars worth of stuff...

I want to but I cant...

I want to feel that light, no strings attached feeling you get after you do something or have a good clean out. I mentally need it. My life feels like its weighing me down... the contents of this house is weighing me down. I want to be free to move around if I want to... I'm heavy with things I don't use.

Any suggestions?

Serious answers only please.
