Why do we hoard things? We discuss in the podcast "Who would say"
Miscellaneous / / April 04, 2023
An innocent “what if it comes in handy” can develop into pathological hoarding.
Each episode of the new season of the Who's Talking podcast features real-life stories and questions from the hosts listeners about what excites them, and together with experts discuss how to overcome difficulties and get out of the situation.
This time, the presenters Mikhail Volnykh and Daria Bakina, together with psychologist Elena Kotova, talk about storing necessary and not very things. How to understand that pathological hoarding is close? How is collecting different from collecting rubbish and why is one approved and the other condemned by others? How to help a loved one who risks drowning in their garbage "treasures"? The answers are in the latest episode.
