Do you guys ever get hooked watching Hoarders? ??

Donsky @donsky14 (5990) • Philippines 24 Nov

I started watching it “just for a few minutes,” and suddenly it's three episodes later and I’m deep into someone’s clutter problems. It’s wild, kind of stressful, but also weirdly satisfying when they finally clean everything...

Hoarder in recovery

Jaycee @fivecandles (438) • United States 17 Nov 24

I'm a recovering hoarder. I hoard two things, craft supplies and papers. Papers like old medical EOBs, kiddo's report cards, legal documents. I don't hoard newspapers or trash. The craft supplies are the worst. But the really...

Hoarders

Michelle Renee Kidwell @Michellekidwell (29953) • Sonora, California 31 Mar 21

I don't know what it is about these shows, but it always makes me want to clean, and get rid of stuff lol. Of course I know that Hoarding is no joking matter, but the show definitely gets me to cleaning.

Hoarders is my guilty pleasure

maezee @maezee (41985) • United States 6 Aug 19

The TV a show, not the act itself. Personally I am a bit of a minimalist (besides clothes and shoes. I do have to admit I love my clothes and shoes! Ha). Do you have any of the shoes that you watch that you consider a “guilty...

Are you a hoarder and if so what is your logic behind it?

Always smiling @allknowing (153529) • India 22 May 18

Yuki @yukimori (10192) • United States 29 Aug 15

My husband and I were talking this evening, and he was telling me about this crazy dream that he had last night. It started off normally, with him waking up to me complaining about finding a mouse in the house. He said I was...

He is Cleaning the Pile of Junk!? OMG, Am I Dreaming??!

NailTech @NailTech (6874) • United States 8 Dec 12

No he is not doing it on his own either, he would never actually do any work around here like that. Just what HE 'wants' to do. My mom must have suggested to my brother this morning (being it is Saturday) and he isn't working on...

The tendency to hoard: What's up with that?

sherrybelle @sherrybelle (707) • United States 23 Apr 12

A percentage of people have an easier time collecting stuff than getting rid of it. When a person is overwhelmed by material possessions and is unable to decide what to get rid of they are labeled a hoarder. Some folks say that...

I Just Saw the Worst News Headline Ever.

elmiko @elmiko (6630) • United States 24 Nov 10

Yeah, the ad is pretty messed up. It said: Over 1,000 Rescued Rats Up For Adoption My question is who would want to adopt a rat? Apparently they got all those rats from a house on an episode of the show called Hoarders. I...

Shows like hoarders, do they tread on eggshells?

hvedra @hvedra (1619) 16 Mar 10

Being a borderline hoarder myself I sometimes find the best way to deal with the compulsion is get rid of a lot of stuff in one go. I also find that going away for a time helps me focus on what I don't need. Would it be better...
