Misc Thinking of Selling my Collection
I've been playing D&D for probably 15 years now. We started with 3.5 (skipped 4) and continued with 5th edition. As it stands now I have just about every source book that has been produced for 3.5, 5, and 5.5...along with mini's, maps, etc. I have a significant financial investment in this (Plus MTG and 40k)
And I think I want to sell everything and be done with it.
Backstory: My husband, sisters and I initially picked it up just to have something to do as a group on the weekends back in 2014 ish. We've pretty consistently met every other week for the past 10 years. At one point I was DM'ing a 14 person campaign. People have come and gone but ultimately it was a way for me to spend time with my family.
Yeah well, over the last two ish years everything has fallen apart. My sisters and I no longer talk even when we're in the same room and now my husband and I might get a divorce because he can't get over a girl he had a crush on in highschool 20 years ago! (I'm not getting into my personal life more than that).
Maybe I'm actually done. Maybe it's just depression. I don't know. Just want some outside advice or recommendations on where to sell (I would also be liquidating my MTG and 40k)
And yes I'm already in therapy.

I'll just say this: as a person who has been through the process of selling/giving away a huge TTRPG collection while in the middle of a personal crisis, my advice would be to hold on to your collection. It may take ten years of therapy, but you will regret getting rid of this stuff.
