I’ve mentioned this in other threads but my mother got involved in a dog rescue program and she can’t control it. She has to say yes to every one of them. It is in relative control these days but at one point I couldn’t even go to her house anymore. Like it was mentioned about general hoarding it’s a deep emotional thing. Like trying to fill a bottomless hole in your heart. Rescue is a beautiful thing but it isn’t for everyone.
I am a digital hoarder I guess. I have a stack of hard drives but I suppose that’s a very contained hoarding.
