I can't stop thinking about the aerogarden

I recently purchased an aero garden for growing my own herbs. I really enjoyed growing and eating said herbs until a few months back when the bulbs both went.

I went online to order new bulbs for the aerogarden and paid £14.95. 3 months later and 2 emails later I still don't have the bulbs.

I feel I may have now developed a problem where I can't get this out of my head, I find it difficult to function around the house or at work some days as many thoughts begin and end with this aerogarden thing.

Some days are better than others, but there doesn't seem to be any pattern to it.

Is it normal to be this affected by something seemingly minor? I've tried selling it, to remedy the situation for £40, (less than half price) on the Work 'Swap Shop', but no-one wants an aerogarden with broken bulbs.

    I do the same thing with my car.. I like fixing things on it and when something breaks in my car I like to fix it. NOW.. When it isn't fix I stress thinking about it all day and night. Sometimes I'll go out in the middle of the night and try to fix whatever it is!

    Yeah it's normal, as j007d said it can cause you stress but just try and solve your problem. Try not to make it become an obsession, I've fallen into that trap with minor issues before. You'll be fine though. :)

    its perfectly normal
    even this minor problem can cause high levels of strees which causes you to become less functional

    all you need to do is calm down and solve where ur money has gone

    once you've done that you'll be back to normal
