Is this a new mental illness I haven't heard of?

In an interview with PCMag, Hazel said she keeps all those tabs open because she likes “to scroll back and see clusters of tabs from months ago — it’s like a trip down memory lane on whatever I was doing/learning about/thinking about.” So, when she recovered her 7,000+ tab browsing session, she said, “I feel like a part of me is restored.”

Actually that's kinda cool. I shouldn't be a hater.

But... Firefox has a history feature that would serve her purpose much better?
