Are you a hoarder?

Simone says that she’s always been having trouble

throwing away things. Anxiety strikes her when she is 

attempting to discard any item. This is a classic example of a hoarder. Hoarding is defined as having persistent difficulty in discarding or parting with possessions, regardless of their 

actual value. The behavior of a hoarder effects all those

 associated with the hoarder.

What are the common symptoms of a hoarder?

• Severe anxiety when it comes to throwing away any item

• Constant suspicion of other people touching your items or that someone will throw them out.

• Hoarders cannot throw away possessions.

• Have an assumption that the item will be useful someday.

• The home of a hoarder has the furniture gradually moved to the middle of a room with useless objects around it.

• There is no organization to the clutter. Items are stacked precariously at random or even tossed inside the room.
