Hoarding has become more mainstream with hit TV shows such as “Hoarders” on TLC and other documentaries highlighting the disease.

Effecting nearly 2%-5% of the population (According to the American Psychiatric Association), hoarding can be quite a serious mental illness, which many times can be misunderstood.

Family members, friends and community members would like to help the hoarder, however simply trashing everything in sight and cleaning up the house is not the most effective method. It requires a specific process that respects the anxiety of the hoarder, while still getting the job accomplished.

Essential Facts you need to Know about Hoarding

Recently categorized as a mental health disease, a hoarding condition is much more serious than society once though. Common misperceptions that one just simply can throw out the trash and clean the property can lead to serious rifts between family and friends.

If hoarding is effecting your life in some way, here are some important facts you must consider.

Hoarders have the best intentions in the world

hoarders-cleanup-2People who suffer from a hoarding disorder are typically not bad people. They are most likely not the most organized of the bunch and take comfort in things. Many hoarders will use material items as insulation from the outside world; protecting them from anxiety and external pressures.

In addition, many hoarders intend to find functional uses for the items in which they hoard. It is quite common that in their mind there is a purpose for each material thing which causes resistance in throwing it out.

A Major loss typically triggers hoarding

Studies show that hoarding can be triggered during adolescent years, but does not typically show itself until adulthood. Usually derived from a major loss in life, the person suffering from hoarding finds comfort in material items, and begins to use those things to fill a large hole in their psyche.

Hoarding can cause severe health issues

If you’ve seen the TV show, “Hoarders” then you know that this mental illness goes far beyond a cluttered house. Mountains of trash, animal droppings and undetected moisture issues lead to severely hazardous environments.

Over time the person suffering from hoarding becomes immune to the stench and smell, but could result in major health complications from the toxins in which they are exposed.

Do not Confuse Collecting with Hoarding

hoarders-cleanup-3Hoarding and Collecting are much different in scope. Usually a collector will place their focus on one or two types of items- keeping them organized and taking care of their collections properly.

A hoarder on the other hand simply saves everything with the intention of future use. This includes trash, rotten food, cardboard boxes and anything the person hoarding can use to insulate their anxiety from the outside world.

Hoarding is now considered a mental disease

In years past, hoarding was not necessarily considered its own psychological disorder. It usually was categorized under obsessive compulsion disorder, but never a stand alone condition.

With more research and experience with hoarding. It is now considered its own stand-alone disease, and must be treated by a professional team.
