People who struggle with hoarding have difficulty letting go of possessions. Their living spaces become cluttered, disorganized, and often unfit for living in. While there can be different root causes of hoarding, one that is not very well known is that hoarding can be a behavior exhibited by people who are on the autism spectrum, including people with masked autism. In these cases, hoarding results from issues with emotional regulation, sensory regulation, and executive functioning. Deaf Counseling Center therapist, Sheli, explains this type of hoarding. #hoarding #maskedautism #autismspectrumdisorder
