I generally have a lot of anxiety about "big" purchases (anything over 100 dollars TBH) so I end up deliberating whether it's worth it for literal months if not years before doing the purchase.
I think part of it too is that I have an aversion to having any unnecessary "stuff" in my life. Especially since my lack of object permanence means that once I put something away I'll literally forget it exists unless I have an explicit need for it.
@mauve I feel less alone now, reading your first paragraph ;) Although in my case it's mostly that i'm afraid to make a bad purchase decision, and since I tend to keep things for as long as they're working, i'm worried to have to stick with an unfit thing for the years to come. And all this anxiety tends to lead to procrastination ;)
