Depression and bras

I was finally writing a little introduction for myself and it got me thinking. Wanted to share and discuss if anyone related :)

Bra shopping is... therapeutic. Like, I love getting new bras and trying them. I love stalking forums for deals, refreshing tracking all day, the excitement of getting a package. It makes me happy. As I struggle with depression and finding the right treatment this year, it's nice to have a package to look forward to. It's weird how much of a help it has been honestly, but I'm sure some of you understand. The joy of trying on a lusted after bra after a long day of work.

I guess this could be called a shopping addiction at some point, but I try to be rational with it. I try to sell bras before I buy more. I rarely pay more than $20 for a bra. I do get the same feeling buying things like shoes, but I never sell those back! :) With bras it's easy to pass them on, to exchange them, if they aren't the best fit. And then you can get another!

Thanks for being cool, Bratabase peoples.
