You should get reminders like a example have a writing in your wallet saying do I really need to buy this

Stuff like this is either hormonal or genetic; one's an impossibly long process of diagnosing, and even if you were to correctly guess, most solutions (either pharmaceutical or mindset) have a low success rate, and the other's just hard-coded into your genes.

Unless it's emotional, but it more or less falls under the first category. Ugh, all the or's lining up makes the post so ugly

nope absolutely no evidence whatsover, you are so wrong go send the evidence (does it sound familiar lol)

Assuming OP's experienced this issue for a decent time it's a probability. Muh emotional or psychological stuff's not even worth getting into since it also falls under therapy/drug treatment. Knowing you it's probably just some shill for primal slop anyways

But reading this:

i say shit or do shit without really thinking first
this goes for money and material possessions too
its fucking up my relationships and wallet lowk

Just seems to be the way he is; some people are born impulsive. Unless it's a recent issue specifically, i don't see why it's even worth investigating further

you are so wrong go send the evidence (does it sound familiar lol)

I'm not debating nuanced bullshit like genetic predispositions to behaviors. Psychology's not like arguing against the primal diet where there's a million papers to directly support my claims; it's a developing field & far less understood than biology; there's nothing to cite that's definitive.

You mostly just infer data and make your own conclusions with more abstract issues like "Impulsivity" - since the human brain's too complex for even modern technology to fully grasp.

It's why i kept it black-and-white for OP: there's not much you can do for it that won't lead you down endless rabbit holes. I don't see why he should waste time trying to fix an issue that's subject to too many variables for any-one "solution" to fix.

There's nothing either of us can say to prove why he's like this and then propose a fix; it's not like he's got full MRI scans and therapy logs floating around here
