People that have a hoarding problem, or those that have hoarding disorder know the toll it takes on them. It can be very stressful to live with, not just for the one suffering from the issue, but also for those that are living with them.
It can cause friction and tension between family members. Hoarding can present emotional and physical challenges for the family, whether it be a child, partner, parent, or sibling, no one escapes the negative consequences of hoarding.
Hoarding creates conflict in numerous ways:
- The build-up of objects around the house over time eventually creates an unusable living space for family members. Perhaps the living room or kitchen has been completely filled with items that now cannot be used or enjoyed properly. This surely creates much stress for them.
- A person with hoarding disorder may take control of certain areas of the house. This leads to others in the house feeling like they cannot partake in the authority of their own home. They may feel angry, frustrated, and helpless in their own living area. This is not something anyone deserves.
- If anyone attempts to clean the house, the hoarder may become upset or angry by this action. The hoarder may see this as a betrayal. This causes issues of trust between family members and may lead to disagreements over the long haul.
- Too much shopping for items can cause financial stress and difficulties. It also may lead to one purchasing storage spaces for additional item placement, due to the amount accumulated inside the home. Many times money matters are not openly discussed, which causes financial strain for the ones depending on them.
