I’m finally getting rid of my childhood stuff, and I feel awful about it.

I’m 28/m and I’m finally moving away from my parents, this weekend I’m going to go through my old room and get rid of the majority of my belongings. <br><br>My parents house is extremely cluttered and disorganised, and I don’t really want to see my childhood stuff everyday. My parents are just kind of hoarders, they’re not severe, they don’t leave trash laying around but they will keep absolutely everything thinking they’ll need it at some point in the future.<br><br>I am moving in with my partner and I want to live a more minimalist lifestyle. So I need to get anything I want to keep now.<br><br>My reason for keeping my stuff at my parents was because it’s a 20 minute drive away, and I have been back and forth between my partner’s and my parents so often.<br><br>My partner and I are buying a house in January so we will be settled then.<br><br>I feel awful getting rid of my childhood stuff, it’s like I’m throwing a part of myself away. I have spoken to my partner about it and they’re just like “get rid of it.” I feel awful because I’m throwing away things my parents bought me as child, like my PlayStation, my childhood winter coat, the push car we used to decorate when I was little. I know I’ll never use them again but I feel awful about it. <br><br>I’ve been trying to see if I can do anything with them, like sell them, donate, and I’ve been doing that so far but I’m getting tired.<br><br>I don’t want to just dump it all in landfill. I just feel awful.<br><br>Sorry for the rant, but I’m just having a hard time.<br><br>If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.
