A very basic description of a compulsive hoarder is someone unable to dispose of excess or unused things to the point where their belongings are clogging their living space.
Making a cup of tea, working in an office or sleeping in their own bed becomes impossible because the spaces designed for living in have become storehouses.
Here are some basic tips for a compulsive hoarder:
- If you have a gift for someone, give it to them in a timely manner.
- Don't buy stuff to make up for your feelings. The disorder never goes away, so when you make a purchase, think about it you really need it or will use it.
- You are not the only one that this disorder affects. This disorder affects millions of people. You are not alone. It is best to ask for help, as this is a very difficult and stressful thing to do. It will take time, so do not give up if you can’t do a lot in one day.
- Make sure you are not stressed when you tackle the clutter. Stay relaxed. Starting early in the morning is the best time to start a project like clutter control, after you wake up refreshed.
- This is very emotional, stressful, and difficult to deal with. Challenge yourself to do more than you think you can, but do not work yourself to the point that you are unwilling to work with your disorder and other people who are trying to help you.
Hope these few points will help you to have a better and organized life in the future!
