I'm still running 10.8.5, I believe that's Mountain Lion. How can I get this great computer back to it's original state.

I've deleted a lot of useless stuff but I cannot figure out what is taking up so much space on the hard drive. I do not have the original start up disks, I know I should but I don't as I have literally been traveling around the world since I bought the computer and have no idea as to where these disks could be. I don't use the computer for anything but, e-mail, surfing, and I use Logic for music, but I have all of the music on an external drive, so if I cleaned the drive I certainly wouldn't lose much. I actually have no idea as to the amount of junk that is on my computer just taking up space, but it's running a little slow so I was thinking of just completely clearing the SSD and starting from square one again. I have about 12 gigs available on the 120 gig SSD. I have a 2013 Macbook Pro Retina 13' screen.
