Just did a head count of all my teas (Excluding certain samples.) and got 150 More then I expected but less then I feared.

I am really trying to cut down on making tea purchases but sometimes I cannot resist sudden urges. It’s hard when I’m paying for school and I just went per diem at my job. I work approximately 4-5 times per month because I can’t handle more than that at the moment :(

What helps me is to look at what I already have, and maybe estimate how many sessions of 7g this will be. This, and not looking at vendor’s sites.

Well, as I am officially down to about six non-caffeinated options, I placed some orders. All of them were non-caffeinated, herbal, fruit, decaf, etc. including some of the ones suggested to me here. I was good, very good.

Until I got to the Harney site, when I could not stop myself from buying my entire wish list — not just the non-caffeinated options.

But that’s a special circumstance, right? RIGHT?

Oh goodness, do I ever need this support group! The sad part is I live in an absolute hovel of an apartment, and I simply have no space for the tea… yet I can’t stop ordering more. My kitchen is smaller than a typical walk-in closet, I order more tea, and then I’m stuck with the problem of trying to figure out where to put the stuff! The worst part is I’m constantly trying to look for new storage solutions rather than getting to the real root of the problem… not ordering more tea until I drink what I have and clear out the space I do have before getting more!

I don’t know what you guys are talking about, I have no problems. I can stop ordering tea whenever I want. For example, I have a package with 2 kg arriving today and I could easily not order more (as it so happens I am just about to place another order, but that’s beside the point). I am not addicted and I could easily not do it if I didn’t want to.
But I do so I will.
