What is Clutter?
It's a word that has a different meaning to everyone. When you hear the word clutter, what do you picture in your mind?​
​
-
A large pile of clothes knee-high
-
Over cramped cupboards
-
Floored items due to no space allocation
​
​
Considering the official meaning of 'Clutter' is a combination of untidy, messy and disordered, do you think this is the same as 'Hoarding'?

Keeping items regardless of expiry dates

What's the Difference?
Clutter is what most of us deal with daily!
​
We’re busy, we take something out of a cupboard and in our mad rush, forget to return it to where it belongs.
​
Before we know it clutter can build quite quickly. By the time you get home from work, you’ll most likely need to prepare for dinner, and the last thing on your mind is to walk back into the bathroom and put your makeup away.
​
Even washing those morning dishes before preparing your evening meal doesn’t fit in the right order.
​
Now picture the rest of your home, the hubby too is in his usual morning rush, leaving behind a trail of his things around the home, and don’t forget about the kids….well they’re most likely the worst to tidy up after themselves.
​
All of these small items left here and there from a busy family fill your home with clutter before you even realise it.
​.
​
Hoarding, however...is a little different.
​
This is a habit centred around the persistent habit of not being able to dispose of anything around the home. This includes items such as the daily newspaper, receipts, boxes, papers, clothing….and the list goes on.
​
The easiest way to understand it is this: Most of us love to create a collection of things we love.
We feel comfort when we look at our fancy shoe collection, it brings us joy and we feel proud to put them up on display.
​
They feel there is true value in what they have collected, they buy in bulk to ensure they never run out and once they have plenty, they simply go out and buy even more of the same.
​
There is a clear distinct connection between people that hoard and anxiety.
​
Someone with a hoarding problem thinks everything is a prized collection and their home begins to overflow with belongings.. impacting their daily routine.
