Compulsive Hoarding Disorder
Hoarding or Compulsive Hoarding Disorder makes it very difficult, and nearly impossible, for a person to discard or part with possessions because of a perceived need to save them. The mere thought of throwing away an item of perceived value or importance will cause distress and hardship for the hoarder. Regardless of actual value or worth, excessive accumulation of items will occur.
This accumulation, over time, may become so severe that the hoarder and/or other family members find it very difficult to live a normal and healthy life. So often, our initial contact with the client comes by way of a concerned family member or friend. Unfortunately, it is all too common for hoarders to live in isolation. Many family members have no idea that their loved one is in fact a hoarder.
In the home of a family member and friend with a hoarding disorder, one would typically find the counter tops, desks, sinks, stoves, stairways and nearly all other surfaces to be stacked with items. When no more can be stacked on these surfaces, these items may begin to clutter up the garage, storage barns, vehicles, and yard. Among the first signs of hoarding disorder will be the amassing of items and the difficulty in discarding of these items. These signs or symptoms may often surface during the teenage years. As the person ages, the situation becomes progressively worse and more difficult to treat.
