• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I've always been into collecting things. But it's always been one type of collection at a time. When I get disinterested in collecting whatever, I sell the collection. So I've never really been a horder.
I have a problem getting rid of anything.

Take some advice from me, STOP. I have a house overflowing with stuff I have no way to get rid of. It is overwhelming. I am convinced it is God's justice for my being materialistic. It's also something I continue to do when I am upset.

I would get rid of all of it if I could. You will reach a point where you will feel the same way. But it will be too late.

I'm not on the spectrum, and I'm the opposite. I throw stuff away if I haven't used it in a while. I hate clutter and can't stand to see things taking up space for no reason.

No. I was curious if anyone on the spectrum had an issue with hoarding. That's all.

Do you ever watch the show Hoarders? I tried watching it a few times but just couldn't. Looking at those houses made my skin crawl and caused me anxiety. I had to turn it off. Those poor people.
