I really hate to admit it but I think I'm a hoarder. I don't have many nice or sentimental possessions but my living space and car is always littered with debris of all kinds. Whether it's clothes or papers nothing is organized and I'll even hoard trash. It's disgusting.
I'm 28, I live alone and if someone is coming over I can and will throw things out to get my place reasonably clean, but it won't be long before I'm letting everything pile up again. I'm sober for almost 2 years now so I know I'm capable of changing my habits and behaviors, maybe it's just a matter of acknowledging the reality and extent of the problem.
I understand hoarding may be a form of OCD and I completely believe that. Not sure what I'm looking for exactly I guess just some support and a place to relate to others. Thanks for reading.
