    He's making me cry. Sentimntal saving. Yes.
    The idea that this could be useful, if I toss it, I am guilty of being wasteful.
    Crazy definition of things' intrinsic value. Hoarders have a complex way of valuing things. To see the aesthetic value in things as a gift? A positive in all this? Yay.
    Disorganized categories. The piles of things are mixtures of important and unimportant stuff. This is th er hellish problem of emptying my mothers mess.
    Anyone need a 1968 Encyclopedia Britannica set in beautiful condition?

    The hundred dollar Bill reminds me so much of my husband. Every time he finds something valuable or important in his stash he will make sure I know how bad it would’ve been if he hadn’t gone through it.

    Thank you for this upload. This is a good dissection of the surface drivers of the phenomenon of hoarding. I am familiar with the cardboard tubes! Do you have views on hoarding as a mental illness? Why people hoard (apart from the surface, rational or rationalizing drivers as described)? Treatment which goes beyond the clearing of the hoard? Which touches the raw nerves and modifies the behaviour?

      Only form of treatment I know of that has the potential to „cure“ this illness permanently is trauma therapy. There is one / multiple reasons for this do be developed, if you can get behind the „why“ through a professional in many sessions you might be able to get rid of it...

    In my opinion it’s not a „gift“ they’ve got. It’s a mental illness that changes the perception, telling them that a certain type of behavior is correct even tho it’s not. Maybe it’s through loss, loneliness or trauma, or all of it together, it changes a person to retreat ein their own world, where value is represented by attached feelings they have to objects. It changes the core „attachment“ style of a person, that’s why it is so hard to get rid of it. The person has to not only be treated for the why but also integrated into reality again

      Can't fix attachment. It was baked in during those first 18 months of life.
