Insights from Chapter 1

#1

Joan and Paul, who were lawyers, had tried to find a way to avoid surrendering their three boys to CPS. They had tried to think of every possible way to avoid today’s decision, but they had come up empty. Their home was 70 percent filled, and there was nowhere for them to sit or eat as a family. They had to surrender their kids to CPS.

#2

Terri, who is dealing with her parents’ move, takes on their extra stuff. She feels overwhelmed by the responsibility and the lack of free space in her new house.

#3

Hoarding is when a person accumulates an excessive amount of items, to the point where their house is filled with junk and they cannot move around in it. Nancy was hoarding, and she realized it.

#4

Hoarding is defined as excessive accumulation and failure to discard things, animals, or both, even when items appear to be of questionable value. It can be a problem in other areas of your life, creating heightened anxiety that you carry with you everywhere.

#5

The prevalence of hoarding disorder is still unknown, as research on the disorder is limited. However, studies have found that between 1 and 2 percent of the general population hoard.

#6

Hoarding is a worldwide problem, and it is difficult to help those who hoard. However, there are websites that can provide support for those who hoard and for the professionals trying to respond effectively.

#7

Hoarding is a complex disorder that affects everyone I know who has it. I have learned how to help people with hoarding problems, and my practice has become very diverse as a result.

#8

If you are unsure whether hoarding is becoming a problem for you or a loved one, ask yourself the following questions: Are there areas of your home that can't be used for their intended purpose without shifting things around. How easy is it for you to find things when you want them. Does clutter make it difficult to walk through any of the rooms in your home.

#9

If you rated questions 1, 4, or 5 above a 2, assess your situation and ask for feedback from someone you trust who knows you. If you need to try to do it yourself but are not making progress in a month, call for help.

#10

The garage is where you should keep all of your unwanted items. The items in your garage should be things you use in daily life that don’t get put away. They should be excess recycling materials that don’t get recycled, and clothing.

#11

Hoarding’s inclusion in the DSM-5 confirms it as a separate disorder in its own right. Many thought of it as a syndrome of OCD, but now it has its own diagnostic criteria and treatment requirements.

#12

If you are unable to manage the items in your home so that each has a permanent place and you are constantly adapting your life to access them, you are suffering from hoarding.

#13

People who clutter do not necessarily go on to hoard, but conversely, every person who has clutter has told me that creating clutter was the starting point. You decide.

#14

I divide hoarding into five distinct types. Indiscriminate hoarding is when people who hoard gather and acquire indiscriminately. Discriminate hoarding is when people who hoard discriminate between items they see as extremely desirable and those they do not, acquiring a specific type or group of items excessively. Combination hoarding is when the excessive accumulation reaches a point where the valued items are mixed up in piles with large numbers of unimportant things.

#15

Animal hoarding is when a person accumulates a large number of animals to the point where human and animal health and safety are compromised. It is a complex subset of discriminate hoarding, defined as an accumulation of animals to the extent that there is failure to provide minimal nutrition, sanitation, and veterinary care.

#16

Hoarding can cost you so much of your life. It can cost you relationships that would have enriched your life and sustained you. By investing in your relationship with your possessions, you spend your time, focus, and emotional energy with objects, which can’t love you back.

#17

There are three paths to hoarding: inheriting the vulnerability to hoard as a result of genetics or environmental factors, having a high-risk comorbid factor, or being mildly chronically disorganized and then becoming vulnerable.

#18

Hoarding disorder is a high-risk comorbidity. That means that the presence of a certain factor makes another specific factor more likely. People who have any of the disorders or other issues listed below are at a higher risk of developing hoarding disorder.

#19

There are four questions to ask yourself when deciding whether to keep processing the things of everyday life or stop: How well are you taking care of your physical, mental, and spiritual health. How close are you to being overwhelmed. How would you react to becoming overwhelmed.

#20

There are three types of attachment relationships people can have with their things: a sentimental relationship, a functional relationship, and an instrumental relationship. The more items you keep as a reminder of a person, the more you buffer yourself from having to deal with the loss that person represents.

#21

The three types of attachment are aesthetic, when you get a strong, immediate rush of adrenaline when you see an item; intrinsic, when the item itself is seen to have significant or potential importance; and extrinsic, when you are attracted to a specific type of object and experience anticipatory pleasure.

#22

Hoarding is associated with either having gone through the Great Depression or having parents who went through the Great Depression and passed on the effects of deprivation. But not all who hoard have gone through the Great Depression or had parents who went through the Great Depression.

#23

Hoarding is caused by experiencing significant loss. Some people who hoard have experienced loss, and some haven’t. When you first realize that you are becoming overwhelmed, reach out right away for help you trust to deal with the problems weighing you down.

#24

There are two types of situations in which the person with no discernible risk factors for compulsive hoarding has a hoarded environment. Aging with mobility issues and managing inherited items while grieving.
