Don't worry. I will stick with hoarding. The author of a book I read on decluttering claimed that if you let go of your physical clutter, you will be able to let go of your emotional clutter and you will also be able to lose those extra pounds you've been battling with for years.
An interesting aspect. So is being overweight just one more symptom of my hoarding? Or am I overweight because I am worried my hoard will suffocate me if I am thin and fragile?
Shouldn't it also work the other way round? If I let go of my extra pounds or my emotional clutter I should be able to part with all those unnecessary items?
Well. If decluttering helps me lose weight I am even more motivated to finally learn to let go!
Realizing I was a hoarder was both a shock and a relief. A shock, because nobody wants to have a mental disorder. A relief, because my situation finally had a name. I found people who could relate. Knowing the problem helps solving it. I can step aside and look at the situation from a more neutral point of view. Why am I blogging about it? 2 reasons. 1. Putting my thoughts into words helps me think more clearly. 2. If this helps just one, who is like me, see the light it was more than worth it!
