In this episode of the Neurodivergent Experience, we delve into the complexities of materialism, exploring its good, bad, and ugly sides. We discuss our personal experiences with collecting, the dopamine rush associated with purchases, the emotional and psychological aspects of materialism and the societal pressures that influence consumer behaviour.

Takeaways

• Collecting can be a way to commemorate personal interests and milestones.
• Materialism can lead to clutter and a sense of overwhelm.
• Personal happiness does not always correlate with material possessions.
• The importance of buying for oneself rather than for others' approval.
• True happiness comes from within, not from possessions.
