Hoarding is a type of anxiety disorder where the individual is compelled to keep excessive objects and things to the point of obsession. It can be linked to past trauma but also anxiety and fear of needing or letting go of the past. Delicate hands are needed when confronting a hoarder and in many cases hoarders need guidance in steps instead of one large change. Sudden change can cause panic and distress.
