...is not just physical junk. I still keep going at this like a bull at a gate, then stop for a bit. I need to keep at this, get some momentum going. If I don’t, the futility of the whole thing begins to weigh heavily and eventually apathy sets in, and I even start to undo what I’ve done.

As for the mountain being more than physical, of that there is little doubt. I have to stop atttaching importance and undeserved sentimental value to stuff which is worthless. Hoarding is a type of mental disorder, that’s undeniable, but I’m convinced I can win the battle!
