The hoarding syndrome, how it can ruin your life

When many people first come across hoarding, they mistakenly think that it is a somewhat curious but harmless habit that some people fall into. But the reality is that hoarding is actually what is termed, as an OCD (Obsessive Compulsion Disorder), that often has disastrous effects on the sufferer’s life, and also on the lives of those around them.

The receipt of, and unwillingness to dispose of, large quantities of various possessions that seem to be of little use or value. When normal living space becomes so overcrowded with clutter as to make that space unusable for its proper purpose. When normal routine functioning is badly disrupted because of the act and results of hoarding.

It is often the elderly that become hoarders; firstly because of a natural reticence to throw things away that inspire memories, but more and more, an unnatural and irrational desire to collect things simply for the sake of keeping them. Of course with the elderly the problem becomes more apparent, because over the years, the sheer volume of their hoarding reaches devastating proportions. It is then often down to the grown children of these elderly hoarders, to deal with the problem; either because the hoarder passes away leaving massive piles of apparent junk behind, or, the problem becomes so immense that it interferes with the quality of the hoarder’s life and may also present a real danger to the health and safety of the hoarder.

People who turn into hoarders find themselves enmeshed in a vicious circle. The huge amounts of clutter that they hoard can literally destroy their social lives. This happens because they do not feel that it is appropriate to invite people to see them when their property is in such a mess. Although they realize it is in a mess, that knowledge on its own, is not sufficient enough to inspire them to deal with the problem. The vicious circle then progresses further when they no longer feel bound by everyday etiquette to even try and keep their surroundings tidy. With this constraint broken, the hoarding compulsion is given a full and a free reign.

There are of course different magnitudes to hoarding, as in many other OCDs.
