Hi to all who struggle every day. I've been struggling with anxiety, panic attacks and depression for most my life. I have been struggling since I was a child with these disorders and have seen terrible downward spirals.

What Is Hoarding Disorder? Symptoms, Causes, and Evidence-Based Care

Hoarding Disorder is a mental health condition that makes it very hard for a person to let go of their belongings, even things that may not be useful. Over time, these items accumulate into substantial clutter in the home. This clutter can make it difficult to use living spaces and may even create safety risks. It can also affect a person’s health, relationships, and daily life.
