Hoarding is classified as a mental disorder, and it affects millions of Americans and their families. The reason it is considered a mental disorder is because the common behaviors of hoarding are caused by underlying anxiety and depression that make it difficult for people to part with items they have brought into their home. As a result, the clutter of hoarded items will grow, creating a dangerous and unsanitary living environment. It is important to clean the homes of hoarders to restore safe living conditions, but this should not be done unless the affected individual consents to the cleaning.<\/p>\n

The Dangers of Excessive Hoarding<\/h2>\n

Hoarding behaviors start out mild but become worse over time as those affected accumulate more items and allow their home to fall into disrepair. As the clutter builds, it can block doorways and pathways in the home which make it difficult to evacuate in case of an emergency like a fire<\/a>. The clutter also increases the risk of a fire as the materials can burn up quickly and cause a potential fire to spread. As the items pile high, there is also a risk of the piles toppling over which can cause injuries.<\/p>\n

The other danger is that hoarding creates unsanitary living conditions. The clutter can harbor harmful materials like mold<\/a> and bacteria that can cause illness, and insects and pests can also thrive in the mess. These conditions can lead to serious health issues for the affected individual and anyone else living in the home.<\/p>\n
