some notes on hoarding
so i'm talking to kathy, a friend at the study, about my hoarding issues, and she says
make priorities, three boxes, keep, donate, throw away.
keep
donate
throw away
i'm not certain what she means by priorities. so we'll talk more about that.
keep
books i plan to read
enough clothes to wear between laundry
tools
revereware
2 cars.
canned goods.
3 stuffed animals
paper: enough for tax records, study records, open cases, closed cases for 5 years.
anything real estate related.
get: washer dryer.
donate
maybe the windows in the garage. take to auction? make an auction list in the donate category?
the computers in the basement.
i'm having trouble finding the right people to donate to, and then there's the question of what's good enough to donate that's not good enough to keep.
donate: half the stuffed animals , if that room doesn't have bugs. not the ones i'm close to (wump, bimbo jr). maybe shepard center.
throw away
most of the clothes in the basement.
put a fan down there. so a power strip.
spray for bugs.
most of the stuff on the front porch
most of the stuff outside.
email re that volvo.
fix eaves again. we have the ladder. sell the ladder? save for nemo? save till it gets stolen?
half the stuff in the toolroom and the furnace room.
so get a dumpster.
sort thru the stuff in steve's room.
get rid of any spoiled food.
find that one paper re werle.
the more organized i can get, the more i can keep.
try getting paper into the file cabinets.
scrap: the washer, the dryer, the broken fridge. the broken volvo
the pile of metal in the yard goes to tom.
action item: today, call mark or steve, ask for ken's phone number. discuss house issues.
future action item when i can deal with it: talk to health and hospital. see about counseling, but mostly see about interfacing with the inspectors.
notes from internet sites:
http://208.88.128.33/hoarding/diagnosing.aspx
from international OCD association
different from ocd, with some overlap.
more than just lack of energy from major depression
A.
B 1 guilt about wasting - it might be useful someday to somebody
2 info junkie. that's me. that pile of junk mail has info that i need.
3 sentiment - nostalgia, emotional triggers.
4 aesthetic - it's an art thing, the objects are beautiful or could be made into art.
Hoarding Disorder:
Because of the distinctiveness of hoarding symptoms, the DSM-V diagnostic work group on OCD has recommended that hoarding be included in DSM-V. However, the committee is still examining the evidence to determine whether to include “hoarding disorder” in the main part of the manual or in an appendix for further research. The proposed diagnostic criteria are:
A. Persistent difficulty discarding or parting with personal possessions, even those of apparently useless or limited value, due to strong urges to save items, distress, and/or indecision associated with discarding.
B. The symptoms result in the accumulation of a large number of possessions that fill up and clutter the active living areas of the home, workplace, or other personal surroundings (e.g., office, vehicle, yard) and prevent normal use of the space. If all living areas are uncluttered, it is only because of others’ efforts (e.g., family members, authorities) to keep these areas free of possessions.
C. The symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning (including maintaining a safe environment for self and others).
D. The hoarding symptoms are not due to a general medical condition (e.g., brain injury, cerebrovascular disease).
E. The hoarding symptoms are not restricted to the symptoms of another mental disorder (e.g., hoarding due to obsessions in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, lack of motivation in Major Depressive Disorder, delusions in Schizophrenia or another Psychotic Disorder, cognitive deficits in Dementia, restricted interests in Autistic Disorder, food storing in Prader-Willi Syndrome).
Specify if:
With Excessive Acquisition: If symptoms are accompanied by excessive collecting or buying or stealing of items that are not needed or for which there is no available space.
Specify whether hoarding beliefs and behaviors are currently characterized by:
Good or fair insight: Recognizes that hoarding-related beliefs and behaviors (pertaining to difficulty discarding items, clutter, or excessive acquisition) are problematic.
Poor insight: Mostly convinced that hoarding-related beliefs and behaviors (pertaining to difficulty discarding items, clutter, or excessive acquisition) are not problematic despite evidence to the contrary.
Delusional: Completely convinced that hoarding-related beliefs and behaviors (pertaining to difficulty discarding items, clutter, or excessive acquisition) are not problematic despite evidence to the contrary.
People who hoard have a variety of reasons for doing so. The most frequent motive for hoarding is to avoid wasting things that might have value. < yes
Many hoarders describe themselves as information junkies who save newspapers, magazines, brochures, and other information-laden papers.
Hoarders are often intelligent and curious people for whom the physical presence of information is almost an addiction.
A third motive for saving is the emotional meaning of objects.
4th, Finally, some people hoard because they appreciate the aesthetic appeal of objects, especially their shape, color, and texture.

Individual Treatment for Hoarding
Hoarding is a difficult problem to treat. Neither medicine nor psychological therapies that work well for OCD seem to be as effective for hoarding. A special form of cognitive behavior therapy has been developed to treat hoarding. This method combines:
- elements of motivational interviewing
- several features of cognitive therapy and behavioral practice for OCD, and
- skills training
The treatment focuses on three hoarding behaviors:
- excessive acquisition
- difficulty discarding or letting go of possessions, and
- disorganization and clutter that impairs functioning.

New computer. It's 4:20. I'm sitting in the lobby of the clinic, waiting till, I hope 5 pm, when they open the doors to our clinic. I can't get online and I don't feel much like working on the brief. Walked here through falling snow. I bit down. What I got done today: 1. fixed my other computer for $20, by buying a battery and a power cord. 2. emails to my lawyer's office. 3. a load of laundry. 4. caught 2 buses to get back to the clinic. so 4 things, not too bad. maybe i can do one or two more things.
to do: scrub social media of any mention of the accident. call 4015 ask if they got wifi hooked up. suggest they get rat poison, rat traps, get reciepts, i'll pay for it when i get back. mouse poison too. $20 or so.
did not sleep well last night either. they get us up at 5, keep the bunk rooms locked, people snore or make calls. i should start going to sleep after dinner.
Wow really nice interaction with mohammed. he got me online, got me water,
we talked about the different languages he knows. a nurse, i know her name, came by and we talked shop about my new computer, because she remembered my pink one; this is the same model in blue. she says, and she's right, that it doesn't have enough internal memory, 2 gigs, so i'll need to remember not to save pictures except online, and no movies and such. Parriss, I think that's her name. Which ties in with Mohammed, who speaks French when he is home in Toronto, the home office of this company.
He also speaks arabic and some spanish because he's from Morocco. He doesn't look like a Moor but could pass as Spanish. English and French and Arabic and Spanish, I might be forgetting one. I dont know if he's a doctor as well as being a tech guy, maybe just IT but probably more than that.
So that was a fun adventure all in the past 15 minutes. I'm online so I could make a comic. Plan for tonight: check-in, shower, nap, work on brief. See if other computer powers up ok, email myself files. Ah, this would be a good time to try again to download openoffice.
