So, I learned recently that hoarding or collecting specific things and then feeling immense anxiety and feelings of danger are associated with OCD!

So, I want to know, what are things you hoard or collect!

I collect pill bottles and makeup boxes.

Hello mentis: The Skeezyks is not a hoarder. Neither is my wife. In fact, we have a tendency to get rid of anything & everything we're not using at the moment. Over the years, I've dumped some stuff I wish I had back now...

I don't really collect much of anything anymore. I've pretty-much made a commitment not to spend any more money than I absolutely have to. One thing I guess I do sort-of collect though, I guess, is books of classical Chinese, Japanese & Zen poetry (in English translation.)

I collect a lot of things but I'm just a collector. The only one that is worrysome is my empty deodorant bottle collection. Can't seem to throw them out.
