Book Reviews of Overcoming Compulsive Hoarding: Why You Save & How You Can Stop (New Harbinger Self-Help Workbook)

Book Review: Very Helpful, easy to understand, Makes me want to keep it!!
Summary: 5 Stars

i was told i had "the disease" from my mother when she came to visit me one time, which i had gotten from her. I tried to pass it off as saying that it was because i was getting the ceiling painted and things were a ruckus then, which was partly true. But then after she told me that i lost all ambition to return all the things i had to move around. This book made me realize that i did get the "disease" from her, and little does she ever admit it at least i am willing to get some help and clear the clutter. This book helps you step by step if you do the activities and take the time to seriously do it.

Summary of Overcoming Compulsive Hoarding: Why You Save & How You Can Stop (New Harbinger Self-Help Workbook)

This book, the first ever written for savers and their families, provides an overview of compulsive hoarding and how it relates to obsessive-compulsive disorder. It discusses hoarding broadly, offering readers perspectives on the physical, behavioral, and value-oriented aspects of the condition. Readers can use its assessment tools to help decide why they or their loved one hoards. Skill-building exercises help readers determine how to beat the hoarding problem by addressing issues that often underlie compulsive saving. Even though this is fundamentally a self-help book, it contains a frank discussion about the need for professional help in some hoarding cases, how to find it, and what medications have been proven effective for savers.
