Are you a hoarder?

I personally know a hoarder and have heard of stories on hoarders other people know. This is how I came up with this list. You know you are a hoarder if:

- you wear the same set of clothes over and over again cause you can not find your other clothes from the pile of stuff.
- you do not welcome people in your home cause you are too ashamed to let them see the mess from all the stuff you have.
- you eat in your bed cause your dinning table is full of stuffs.
- you can not even take in your old sick mom cause you have no space in your house from all the stuff occupying your spare bedroom.
- you have to park your car in the street cause your garage is full of junk.
- you keep pile and pile of newspapers or magazines from the previous century.
- you can barely walk around your house cause the floor is littered with stuff, boxes and junks.
- you can not let anybody ride in your car cause it is full of stuff and junk.

Complusive hoarding of junk/things is a mental illness. The reason why so many of people who have this are not being helped is because most of these people are functional in society. They have jobs and seemingly normal social life. But if you peel behind the obvious, you will see their compulsive hoarding. The bottom line is if you are a hoarder, please seek psycho therapy to help you rid of this unappealing habit.
