Heart indecisive

I have this thing where I can't make decisions. I spend an inordinate amount of money at the hairdressers because I am usually not satisfied with my hair color and am always wanting my hairdresser to tweak this or that. Don't worry, I tip her well.

My husband does most of the grocery shopping because when I stand in the toothpaste aisle I look around and look around and can't make a decision. Same thing on the cereal aisle. I'll walk up & down the aisle and can't decide on a box of cereal. And I tell myself just pick something already but I can't.

I needed a sweater so I went to Walmart. There was a beige one, a brown one, and a black one, all the same style just different colors. I stood there a long time and could not decide which one to buy so I bought all 3. Now that I tried them on at home I don't like any of them and already have them in the bag with the receipt ready to return. For some reason they look different in my mirror at home than the dressing room mirror.

If I'm buying bananas. I'll look at the selection of bananas and can't decide which bunch to buy. That's why I have 3 packages of grapes in my fridge right now. I stood there staring at them and could not decide which to buy so I bought the 3 I had narrowed it down to.

I could go on & on. I have been this way since at least I was in college. I was hopeful that maybe my recent med adjustment would help with this but nothing has changed as far as my indecisiveness goes. Does anyone else experience something like this? I am trying to figure out if this is part of being bipolar or just part of my own personality.
