Dude I clearly don't know what you are saying. So you can collect but if you get dopamine from it, it is now unhealthy?

If you don't care then why say that about dopamine? Like you make it sound like the moment you become happy with collecting, it is now unhealthy. Like I agree that if someone ONLY gets happy from buying then yeah, gotta step back and look at that, but you are seeming to make a blanket statement. The moment I am happy from collecting, now it is unhealthy.

Like I said, cool that you don't collect. I actually collect electrical junk so I can reuse them for other purposes. Do I have a closet full? No I got like 2 shelves of it, so is this unhealthy? Because I get a dopamine hit from finding junk and thinking of all the parts I can use it for OR thinking of why it is broken? You know what I got for Christmas? A soldering mat so I didn't accidentally melt my table as easily.

Like seriously WHAT are you trying to say since clearly I am not getting it. Like collecting is bad because you get dopamine hits? Like collecting is a drug? Dude I earn my money and can use it how I like. If you don't care about what OP collects then why make the statement? I feel like you are trying to be holier than thou but you arent. I am really happy that you dont really collect, I really am. But just let people be happy in their own way. As long as they arent causing harm (physically, financially, mentally, etc) then what problem ARE they having?
