Compulsive hoarding – people that have a large number of useless possessions but can’t discard them. It causes significant clutter to basic living activities such as mobility, cooking, cleaning, showering and sleeping.

Characteristics:
· the acquisition of many things and failure to discard a large number of possessions that appear to be useless or of limited value
· living spaces sufficiently cluttered(very disorganized) so as to avoid activities for which those spaces were designed
· significant distress or impairment (deterioração) in functioning caused by the hoarding
· reluctance or inability to return borrowed items; as boundaries blur, impulsive acquisitiveness could sometimes lead to kleptomania or stealing
If you have your fridge filled with expired food, and you are reluctant to throw it away, maybe you’re a compulsive hoarding in some degree.

I am such a compulsive hoarding, OMG!!!
ResponderExcluirOk, my bedroom is not as messy as the ones showed, but it hasn't been organized lately, which would kill me some time ago...
I think I am evaluating some concepts, because I'm not at home so I don't care so much as I used to. Well, of course I LOVE seeing my bedroom organized, but I haven't had time recently, so I just keep putting the organization off for as long as I can...
