You must also be able to define a collection. If someone says, “What do you collect?” And you say “everything”. You are still a hoarder, despite your impressive cataloging system.
A collection becomes a treasure when the volume begins to interfere with your ability to clean or move your house. Accumulators often go beyond collection… usually there is also garbage.
A collector collects useful and valuable things. He can sell them. An accumulator seeks quantity, not quality. Goods versus garbage.
I am a collector, others accumulate. If you have tons of stuff in garages and outbuildings, that’s not really a problem as long as you have the space in your house to lead a normal life. The problem arises when you die and your executor has to decide how to handle your assets. Or if you can’t live independently and your loved ones have to take care of your business. Serious hoarders can live in truly disgusting unsanitary conditions because they don’t clean up or dispose of trash.

You’ll automatically feel the difference in anxiety when you’re stuck with the problem of getting things done or cleaning someone’s house.
I speak from experience – single-handedly cleaned 3 people and their 3 attachments.
Never again – the reward was insults.

The participant who knows nothing better than giving thumbs down has apparently never helped clean up someone’s cluttered house.

Hoarders are a subset of collectors whose memories interfere with their daily lives.
the hoarder is someone who keeps things that are useless to him or have no value.
a collector specializes like you a collector just can’t let go of things once in your possession is a disease and needs help takes life and is dangerous to your health a collector can also be obsessed but is usually limited by cost and availability
A collector has a large quantity of an object or subject. A hoarder is someone with a mental disorder that prevents them from throwing away anything, such as old newspapers, pizza boxes, used paper towels, broken objects, etc.
It depends – is your dining room table unusable due to piles of unfiled memorabilia? If so, you might be a hoarder. Is your kitchen unusable because of boxes piled up everywhere? If so, you might be a hoarder. Are you hesitant to invite people to your home because there is nowhere to sit? If so, you might be a hoarder.
