Exactly, creating a whole new stress point for someone that honestly doesn't need it. When the stuff becomes a source of stress instead of enjoyment, what are you doing? Are you a fan of the media, or are you a fan of the physical objects? Bragging rights? It's a shame, and I wish both my personal friend and Ivey peace.

Collecting is fun, but it's not a reliable coping mechanism. I need to keep telling myself this, as well. New mantra.
