Tile question. Hoarding is very clearly a manifestation of mental illness and the act of hoarding creates a hostile environment for people to live in. This creates an even greater problems for incels because we don't have much of a life outside and our homes are now an awful place to live in.
 
By hoarding, do you mean people who buy every shit they see without thinking of their use?

Yes. It can be grocery hoarding, not throwing out expired food, buy things you don't need/have too many already or not throwing things you haven't used in years because you might use them again someday.

That's completely my parents, especially my mom.
Always buying completely useless stuff just bc "it's cheap". :feelshaha:
 
They stole my call of duty game for nintendo ds
 
Yes my Dad, if it wasn't for Mum the house would be a shithole. The man has random bolts and shit he's brought home from work in his bedside drawer and the garage is a no go zone.
 
yes both of my parents are retards
 
My mom. My house is worse than a literal dumpster. And i have been living in that house for a lot of years. Hopefully will be able to move out in the near future.
 
My mom is like a hoarder but with food. She cleans the kitchen obsessively, so it's not filthy like a hoarder, but she won't throw any food away until it's absolutely black, or she will wait until the food starts going rotten before cooking it, tries to get everyone to eat her rotten food, and then throws the leftovers out. The cupboards are totally full of expired food, the freezer is jam packed with expired meat. Cans of food that expired a decade ago. She will not throw out any expired food because she doesn't eat any of it anyways. She goes grocery shopping almost every day and buys just random food she has no intention of eating.. cans of tomato sauce, spaghetti, etc, meanwhile she probably has never cooked spaghetti in her life, theres like 4 boxes of spaghetti thats have been sitting there for years. There's a bin with like 100 packets of spices that are god knows how old. The refridgerator is always full but she never eats any fresh food (no vegetables, no meat), she only eats crackers, frozen pizza, and potato chips - that's it. So all the fresh food she buys just sits around until it goes rotten.

It's absolute insanity. It's all clearly an elaborate scheme to conceal that she has a terrible diet, or eating disorder, and only eats junk food.

Here too, they buy things they don't need just because it's cheap. And avoid expensive things they need.

My father isn't so much like this, he hoards mostly groceries and has some junk around the house. Mother enables him.

Brutal. Your mother has hardcore issues to risk food poisoning like that, even worse that she tries to push rotten food on you. Parents should be responsible.
 
Recently I've been getting rid of a lot of my belongings that serve no purpose other than to take up space because they have no use to me anymore which made my parents become hostile and question me on this. I simply explained to them that there's no reason to keep things for no reason.

Recently I realised my bed was comfier without my mattress firmer than it was with it and so I took it to the living room and asked my parents where I should put it because I wanted to either throw it away or sell it and they immediately became defensive about me getting rid of it and I asked what the point is in keeping it and they said "it's too good to get rid of" even though it was literally never going to be used by anyone in the household again. Then my dad showed me his bed and he had his mattress firmer under his mattress because he also didn't like to use his and said that I should do the same so that we don't have to get rid of it. Makes zero fucking sense.

This is quite common with me too. They get defensive and offended when I try to throw junk out, like I'm throwing a part of them out. I think this comes from lack of self-esteem.

I agree. Being emotionally attached to meaningless man-made objects proves that your life has no meaning and that you're disconnected from reality.
