Title: Compulsive Hoarding
Post by: Ravenfreak on February 20, 2023, 03:47:02 AM
Compulsive Hoarding is a disorder in which individuals have difficulties parting with items. This can pose a threat to their health, and can cause structural damage to their homes as well. Most hoarders start showing symptoms after a traumatic life event, and many are a shame for their disorder. This usually causes them to be hesitant on seeking help, and may not reach out for help until the last minute. Have you ever dealt with a loved one who had this disorder or known anyone that has this disorder?
