Chronic Disorganization? We Can Help!

Do you know someone whose home is piled high with newspapers, magazines, clothing and other items? Do they fear running out of an item or have severe anxiety when discarding anything? They may be chronically disorganized or hoarding.
 

Sometimes called hoarders, people with chronic disorganization compulsively purchase, acquire and save items that have little or no value. They have trouble making decisions about throwing anything away, including: newspapers, magazines, paper and plastic bags, cardboard boxes, photographs, household supplies and clothing. They may feel overwhelmed or embarrassed by their possessions and are often suspicious of other people who touch their possessions.
 

Individuals who are hoarders are often a concern to their family members, friends and neighbors. In the worst cases, hoarders can be evicted from their apartments or homes due to potential safety issues.
