EDIT MY COMMENTS TO PROVE YOU ARE THE REAL CUCK <| sep |> Doesn ' t matter if it ' s a first world problem , it ' s still a real problem . You ' ve got the right idea by acknowledging to yourself what ' s going on and looking for ways to manage it . A good first strategy give yourself a hardcore budget . At the beginning of the month , put $ X some reasonable amount in an envelope in cash and spend it on whatever the fuck you please BUT , when it ' s gone , no more art supplies ! No more skincare stuff ! Until the next month arrives . Try that for 3 months and see where you ' re at . You do have to take it very seriously , but choose an amount $ X that lets you have some fun , but not too much , each month . <| sep |> Not at all , you ' re actually pretty cute
