Which is the syndrome of compulsive accumulation, the mental distress that comes from living in the middle of the basura

“(The tendency) to collect worlds only to escape from the manos”, he says, “because the stress of living with the pessimistic pony in ‘modo dejame en paz'”.

Brown sufre lo that se conoce como compulsive accumulator syndromea mental trauma that generates in which a grain grows dificultad para deshacerse de objetos that for other people they do not have much value or their importance.

“It is difficult to get enough water to lead to a considerable amount of effort, as the space habitable sea is impossible to navigate” and then “habitats can not be used for the fin with which it draws dishes: you can not use the stove to cook or habitation to sleep “, explains the BBC World Cup Gregory Chasson, clinical psychologist and associate professor in the department of psychology at the Illinois Institute of Technology, in EE.UU.

From diary papers, magazines, food containers, taps and cables, even bottles or bottle caps. Things to do well or destroy by time and time, to transform into precise objects for the accumulator.

It deals with a condition that does not distinguish between men and women, culture or economic-social situation.

Affected by men and a 2.6% of the world populationwith the highest elevations in persons over 60 years of age and above with other psychiatric diagnoses as being associated with depression, as indicated by the Association of Psychiatric Surgeons.

Y, the independence of its synonyms, acuerdo and a study published in el Journal of Psychiatric Research, “has not been performed significantly” during the covid-19 pandemic.

Another important characteristic is the strong impulse that has the persons that the child is to attract and guard objects.

“It’s not the only ones that can be seen without it urgency to buy things or get free thingsor guard objects that take on passive form and life, “said BBC World Cup Christiana Bratiotis, associate professor at the School of Social Work at the University of British Columbia in Canada.

“They want to be saved by the creations that have respect to these objects and the fire emotional connection que tienen con estos “.

Bratiotis cuenta that algunos of all patients can decirle cosas as for example: “This collection of objects means only to me as a sister.

“Representation part of your identity”, explicit.

This is the sum of the creations that, algún día, pueden llegar a necesitar these objects, either for the purpose for which they are intended, for an alternative or as part of a creative project.

The pilgrims do not have to worry about having multiple and serious problems that appear, due to physicists.

“Compulsive accumulation can take up to all types of ambientes peligrosos: noises, noises, no leaks and no risk of infestation that increases the ability of children enfermedades aso asma “, note Chasson.

In terms of mental health, deja a quienes lo sufren aislados socially: guarding the secret of a condition “stigmatizing the society, which interprets it as a problem of greed, immorality or care of personal standards and not as a mental health”, Bratiotis argues.

There are many things that can be identified with the tendency to conserve objects at sea because they are beautiful, but as such, because they are often recovered or thought to have algae of the utility type – starting from the point of view of evolution we are only trying to to store and conserve objects in our screw-nos if they are not necessarily compressed in compressible batteries.

It’s important to consider that it is a behavior and, as it were, “ocurre en un continuum, que va desde leve hasta severo“, explica Bratiotis.

What do you think about a case of compulsive accumulation or complementing a person with a “collector’s alma”?

“It is only a different line of gravity,” said Chasson, “but it can be diagnosed as a problem and something that can be diagnosed when impediments or angst in the individual or in others are within reach.”

También cuando la activity diarrhea of ​​the upper abdomen and impossibility por el desorden y la accumulation.

Probably tense in your head the image of a living replica hasta the techo of cosmic inlays, where there is no alfiler cube, with an assembly of accumulated objects that open the space before it’s due to – a media person being the mayor- passing by puerta.

It is not deserted, but it is the most extreme casess, y los que llegan -por razones obvias- a la noticias y television programs.

To get an image you can very accurately refer to the photo of the abbey, which is one of the resources that are used to evaluate when the accumulative tendency is converted into a mental health problem.

It is part of a series of images that show 9 photos of a room, 9 of a kitchen and 9 of a room, 1 to 9 segments of the number of accumulated objects (1 is the order, 9 is the highest degree).

Providence of a studio published in el Journal of Psychopathology and Behavioral Assessment in 2008, indicating that, by the end of 3, we were against the presence of a compulsive battery.

The accumulation of objects, without embargo, is the only manifestation of the problem, the way of life.

“But when it comes down to it, metaphorically, literally, it’s part of the problem that it’s very visible to people, because it’s not very important impulses before it gets out of hand,” Bratiotis said.

Hay ciertos personality traits – failure to record decisions, perfectionism and procrastination– which, when combined, can predispose an individual to control the compulsive accumulation syndrome.

“We are sure that these are the people who made the most recent decisions and questions about the medically determined decision-making process,” he said.

I do not have a unique reason why this should be done. “No es solo la evolutionary biology, not just genetics, or neurobiology“pero todas esas cosas juegan un rol”, says the investigator.

“We believe that the brain of a compulsive accumulator has a different way of working”, explicitly Bratiotis and acota that these differences are observed in computed tomography, realized in persons and those whose pedestals realize tareas that involve accommodation.

“Enthemes that the combination of these causes with algae experiences of life and in particular experiences around the curtain is that the impulse is the problem “, aggregate, that five volverse obvio in the median edad, comenza a desarrollarse in la infancy or in adolescence.

“Investigations suggest that more than 50% of cases cause problems within 11 and 20 years old de edad “, said Bratiotis.

“It can be manifested with cosas as guarding objects that others consider basura, pero sobre todo the process of thinking and the creations that take away from them“, says BBC Mundo Chasson.

It’s obvious that you want to be more obsessive, psychologically trained, because not all people have the right to do so, and they do not really have the ability to collect and sell things even more quickly in life.

Hasta la fecha, no hay una cura. Pero el tratamiento m proms promisorio es la cognitive-behavioral therapy specialization in the compressible accumulator tray.

The amplitude of the TCC at full amplitude changes the shape of the pensar of the person to modify it as much as possible and as soon as it is felt.

“The results are still moderate. They are not irrelevant, they are completely out of the question,” Bratiotis commented.

“Interventions to reduce the severity and impact of their consequences, and to improve the quality of the screws (of the person who drives the tractor) and to keep the logs,” he said.

“There are other modalities as groups of car owners with facilitators or groups of group appropriations”, added.

Asymmetry, there is so much that the family or the whole family can do to help.

For example, debes acercarte al problema “con empathy y calidez, en vez de asumir una posición acusatoria, diciendo Yo en vez de Tú “, commented Bratiotiss, giving the following example:

“You can say ‘I do not care if you’re living in this house, because you’re following it because it’ s different and you can not use it because it ‘s blocked and you’re not going to do it’. porque te vas a caer ‘”.

It is important to recognize that even with the most intentions that ten, friends and family do not always have the most indicative people to bridar ayuda, agade.

Aín así, pueden offerre al accumulators apoyo to search and pursue an external intervention.

Enthusiast Edward Brown, the Blackburn accumulator, is trying to improve the situation and contribute to creating a group of people in his city, to help other people in similar conditions.

Dl dice que le “emotion apoyar a los acaparadores compulsive y ver cómo mejoran su vida”.
