[quote=Anonymous] My husband is the same way. He has untreated ADHD. He has gotten upset in the past about my throwing away his stuff, but has also made efforts to get rid of things during our last two moves. I don't think he qualifies for hoarder but I think the tendency is there, and it is compounded by rather significant, the symptoms of which are mainly disorganization, forgetfulness and tardiness. Organizing for him is overwhelming. He acknowledges he might have mild ADHD but adamantly refuses treatment. I think it would be much more profitable to medicate the ADHD rather than try to treat the hoarding, which is difficult to treat anyway. In my husband's case, at any rate! I haven't read all the posts, OP, but if your husband has ADHD traits, I think meds for that would make him more willing and able to clean up after himself and tackle the mounds of stuff. [/quote]
