Has anybody noticed it takes a lot of mental stamina (determination) to save money?
How do you fare when trying to save money?
I find i dont have the energy to say no to myself psychologically and i dont blame abilify, i blame the lack of mental toughness i descended into after messing up with drug usage during psychosis. Abilify must be able to be contained whereas severe drug damage deffo doesnt reverse imo
As to the rest of it, I have a weakness for guitar stuff. It seems its a rarity that I don’t buy something every week or two. I am still able to save money because my bills are low. I used to save almost all my disposable income before my guitar hobby.
Maybe you could just moderate your spending a bit. Maybe say “Ok, I won’t buy this item I don’t need this time, but maybe I will allow myself something at later date.” Split it down the middle. Don’t cut it out completely or you might not have the willpower, but make an effort to cut down some? IDK.
