In recent years, a "dismissal" trend has emerged, talking about a pure life without any desire, but there are still common cases of "hoarding" patients in the community who are full of things at home, are dirty and difficult to move forward, and have no quality of life at all. If others abandon items, they will be furious. Yang Teng-Ken, a psychiatrist, said that hoarding symptoms, also known as casinopathy, hoarding syndrome or hoarding disorder, are a kind of psychological and mental health disorder. They are found in "obsessive disorder and related disorders", and need to be treated with drugs and knowledge and behavior to gradually improve.
The hoarding symptoms are better for the elderly! The incidence rate of women is 3 times that of menYang Teng-Ken said that since 2013, the hoarding disease has been included in the "Mental Disease Diagnosis and Statistical Manual" and hair plucking is one type of imperative disease-related disorders. It is defined as "inappropriate collection of items, causing life disorders." Generally speaking, cases are often accompanied by emotional disorders, such as generalized anxiety disorders or separation anxiety disorders, and women are 3 times that of men.
Clinics have also found that the hoarding symptoms are good for people over 55 years old, and the probability of middle-aged and elderly people suffering from hoarding symptoms is three times that of young people. The causes of middle-aged and elderly patients with hoarding severance may cause hoarding behavior.
6 major symptoms of hoarding symptoms. Patients may pile up the houses with foul objectsYang Tengken pointed out that the most common hoarding case is the continuous hoarding case, which will pile from home to public space, affect the living space of the family and cause harm to the home environment, public space and other hazards. Some patients did not intend to collect certain things, and collected 10 items of the same item. After buying it, they did not unbox it and piled it in the corner, causing the living space to become extremely confusing and unusable. The main symptoms can be divided into the following 6 categories:
1. Continuous hoarding of items: A case cannot stop collecting, buying or retaining various items, even if these items are not of actual value.
2. Reject items: The patient is unable to abandon them or throw them away even if the items have been broken, expired, or have no actual use.
3. Extremely confusing living space: hoarding items leads to extreme confusion in the home or work environment.
4. Social and professional functions are affected: hoarding symptoms affect the patient's social life and professional functions, which may lead to isolation, unemployment or other social problems.
5. Emotional Dilemma: Patients often feel anxious, frustrated, embarrassed or other negative emotions due to hoarding and confusing environments.
6. Health risks: Hoarding disorders may lead to health and safety risks, such as stacking items may cause fires, breeding trauma or other dangers.
The hoarding symptoms cause the cognitive function to become worse! The doctor analyzed the causeto treat the sacrificial symptom. Yang Teng-ken said that sacrificial symptom is related to dysfunctions such as the anterior brain leaf or sacrificial dysfunction, which involves the brain's operation area, which forces it to keep "sacrificial sacrificial symptom" and requires the drug to adjust serotonin to stabilize the brain system. In addition, it is necessary to treat knowledge and behavior, relieve stress and resolve concerns to reduce the stocking frequency.
Some patients with hoarding severity are caused by poor cognitive function! When the recognition function deteriorates, the ability to organize, sort, and solve things becomes worse. At this time, family members should provide assistance to help them and discard what they can abandon, so as to gradually reduce them to slowly clear the stockpiled items.
