I have helped quite a lot of lovely people with hoarding disorder. This is now a recognised condition and if you are a tenant we can work together with your housing provider to help you stay in your home and to try and secure funding to help with the decluttering.
I have been a member of a local Borough Council run hoarding team and can offer strategies to keep you organised following our sessions.
Chronic hoarding is defined as the level where items are being stockpilked and it is restricting space and compromising basic functions of the rooms. There is difficulty disgarding anything and strong feelings associated with letting go.
