Welcome to my Blog!

Welcome to my new blog! In this blog there will be tons of useful information for not only hoarders, but for people who need just a little help getting organized as well. I do have hoarding tendencies, so I understand how much hoarders need help, whether they know it or not. I'm far from an expert on the subject, however, so if you are a hoarder who needs help, please seek out a professional in your area who is qualified to help you. Many hoarders need a psychiatrist on hand to understand how they got to the state they're in, even if it is to only try to learn new behaviors to counteract the behaviors in hoarding. I'll will talk more about this in later posts. For now, here is some of the things I will talk about in this blog:

1. Hoarding Books- Excellent resources for anybody who needs help clearing out and getting the help they may need.

2. Organization- Tips on organizing not only rooms in the house, but collections as well.

3. Natural Cleaners- Recipes for natural cleaners that not only help the environment, but your overall health as well.

4. Useful Products- I will suggest organizing products from time to time, and alternatives to get the same look for less.

5. Tips for Forced Cleanup- Some of the level 3-5 hoarders have forced cleanups mandated by their city council. I will talk about the steps you can take to work with the city management and how to contact services needed to help out with the cleanup.

6. Tablet Information- Many people have tablets these days, so I will give advice on not only how to organizing them, but also what applications are useful to many people.

7. Stages of Hoarding- There are many stages of hoarding, so I will give each one its own post.

8. Reasons for Hoarding- There are many reasons involved when it comes to hoarding. I will talk about each one and the signs to look for if you are dealing with on. Not all of the signs are for one type alone, but for some, there are common things among several people.

9. Life Organization- This is to help those who do not know how to organize and take charge of their lives. I hope this topic will help at least a few people out.

Again, I am not a qualified psychiatrist, or a professional organizer, however, I hope anybody who needs help will seek it out whether through family, friends or professionals. Hopefully at least one of each, because hoarders need a team of people to not only keep them on track, but also to turn to and trust when they need help with any issues.
