Self-Help
We all have treasured possessions—a favorite pair of shoes,
a much-beloved chair, an ever-expanding record collection.
But sometimes, this emotional attachment to our belongings
can spiral out of control and culminate into a condition
called compulsive hoarding. From hobbyists and collectors to
pack rats and compulsive shoppers—it is close to impossible
for hoarders to relinquish their precious objects, even if
it means that stuff takes over their lives and their
homes. According to psychologist Dr. Robin Zasio,
our fascination with hoarding stems from the fact that most
of us fall somewhere on the hoarding continuum. Even though
it may not regularly interfere with our everyday lives, to
some degree or another, many of us
hoard. The Hoarder In You provides
practical advice for decluttering and organizing, including
how to tame the emotional pull of acquiring additional
things, make order out of chaos by getting a handle on
clutter, and create an organizational system that reduces
stress and anxiety. Dr. Zasio also shares some of the most
serious cases of hoarding that she’s encountered, and
explains how we can learn from these extreme examples--no
matter where we are on the hoarding continuum.
