Understanding Hoarding Disorder
Hoarding disorder involves the persistent accumulation of items—regardless of their value—and an ongoing difficulty in discarding them. This behavior can lead to mounting stress, financial strain, legal issues, and significant health risks. The severity of hoarding is often categorized into five levels:
- Level 1 (Minimal Hoarding): Few clutter concerns; the home remains safe and functional.
- Level 2 (Mild Hoarding): Noticeable disorganization with possible accessibility issues and minor housekeeping challenges.
- Level 3 (Moderate Hoarding): Multiple blocked rooms, potential structural damage, and sanitation concerns.
- Level 4 (Severe Hoarding): Most of the home is inaccessible, utilities may be disconnected, and substantial health and safety threats are present.
- Level 5 (Extreme Hoarding): Living conditions are nearly uninhabitable, requiring immediate professional intervention.
It is important to note that these levels are general guidelines, and every hoarding situation is unique. A professional evaluation is critical to determine the best course of action to safely address the situation.
