COMPULSIVEHOARDINGDiogenes syndrome:The unbridled compulsion to accumulateThe case of the Collyer brothers, which is reported inthis FACTA issue, is a classic example of pathologicalaccumulation, the compulsion to gather things and theextreme difficulty to get rid of them. Preliminary studieson Compulsive Hoarding (or Pathological Collecting)are relatively recent. Only at the end of the last decade,in the UK, that the first group therapy for people whosuffer from this evil took place. [I know this looks weird,but: …the UK, did the first group therapy for people whosuffer from this evil take place] Over the last few years thetraces of typical compulsive collectors were detected, theproblems they usually face, the possible probable causesof this behavior, and even a neurological map of them.Depression, anxiety, attention deficit and hyperactivitydisorder are common symptoms in people who developthis obsessive-compulsive disorder. The highest incidenceoccurs among older people, who are no longer commonlyattended by family and thus can transform their homesinto tight deposits of everything.Also known as Syllogomania, Disposophobia orinformally as Packratting, compulsive hoarding has directand indirect risks associated with it, such as diseases thatcan arise with the dirt (respiratory problems caused bydust) or brought by rats, cockroaches and related animalsattracted to waste, as well as the risk of fire and, in themost extreme case - the example is of the Collyer brothers- the risk of being crushed by the debris. According tosome current medical thought Compulsive Hoarding cannot yet be considered a clearly configured mental disorder,and many accumulators may have no other symptomsof obsessive - compulsive disorder. Nor do they oftenrecognize a disorder in themselves.Homes of compulsive accumulators may have roomstotally blocked by stuff and, therefore it is normal forthese people to avoid and even prevent visits, becomingincreasingly isolated. Compulsive Hoarding can be dividedinto specific variants, so to speak, such as bibliomania, inwhich the focus of attraction are is books, catalogs andtexts in general, or Animal Hoarding, which deals withthe obsession with pets.Researcher David Tolin, from the School of Medicine atYale University, wanted to find out what happens in thebrain of these accumulators by using images obtained withfMRI. In this work, he and his team diagnosed the problemas an "excessive acquisition and the inability to discardobjects, resulting in a debilitating disorder." The testsshowed that the accumulators had important differences inthe brain, both in the anterior cingulate cortex, associatedwith attention and the ability to concentrate, and in theanterior lobe, linked to risk assessment and the importanceof stimuli and emotional decisions.The collectors subjected to Tolin's experiments showed alower processing capacity of brain activity in these regionsat the moment of making decisions, often motivated byuncertainty about the outcome. The conclusion was thatthey do not necessarily need to keep what they havebecause they love their belongings. In fact, they avoidmaking decisions about what to do by extreme fear ofmaking a mistake by choosing to throw anything away(because they think they may need it later).Besides the emblematic case of the Collyer brothers,there are others - which also have been the subject ofdocumentaries and TV shows - such as the man whohad a compulsion to save information: magazines, books,newspapers, all scattered through the rooms of his home.He came to scour the garbage regularly to see if therewere any writings that could be recovered and saved. ButCompulsive Hoarding is not exclusively linked to waste,junk or things of no use. There is a recorded case of awoman who was a hoarder - consumer, i.e. the stuff thatmessed the rooms of her house was almost entirely theresult of her purchases. Quite without necessity, but movedby an ungovernable desire, she would buy everything. Thereport, which focused on the drama of the woman, showedthat the stairs that led to the second floor of her house hadbeen blocked by the objects, and in the living room it wasnecessary to find paths among the mountains of stuff,most still sealed and with tags.It is worth mentioning also the story of another womanwho said she did not think she accumulated things butinstead she was "saving" them. The detail is that her fatherwas a garbage man and had always brought home objectsfound in the streets, which denotes a kind of hereditarycompulsive hoarding. Already in advanced age, with fivechildren raised and already independent in life, livingalone, she justified her hoarding by saying the objectskept her company. She and her husband - an alcoholichospitalized several times for schizophrenia - wereexpelled recurrently from the places where they lived byneighbors troubled with the rubble that spread across theyard and with the stinking animals the garbage attracted.These cases are not as rare as one may think, and rightfullyso they have been worthy of attention, both by the scientificview as by the sphere of entertainment. Characters who arecompulsive accumulators, real or fictitious, already populatethe literature, films and even television. The focus of theapproach is what naturally ranges from humor to drama.137
