You's all need a 12 Step program:
1. Admit I am powerless over the lure of the trail
2. Believe a new backpack can restore my sanity.
3. Make a decision to turn my life over to Appalachian Pages
4. Take a searching and fearless inventory of all my gear.
5. Admit that neither trekking poles or water filters are inherently wrong. (LW)
6. I'm entirely ready to sell 2 or 3 gear items I rarely use anymore.
7. Humbly ask for assistance in removing extra weight..
8. Make a list of all gear I've dropped, dragged, or scratched.
9. Make amends by patching, taping, or repairing such gear.
10. Continue to accumulate cool new gear, just in case...
11. Seek to improve my cooking and map reading skills.
12. Pledge to carry this message to non-hikers and practice these principles in all my affairs.
Give us 90 days and if your life doesn't get better, we will gladly refund your misery.
