Yeha, unless the TBR books start taking up soace in the house/living area and are creeping into negative habitable space area, it isnt hoarding.

Though tbf I do know hoarders that books were one of their main things they collected. I just doubt that is really who OP is addressing.

DA, anon who made the Steam comparison above:

Yup this. If you have 500 Steam games you bought on sale and never played... sure, whatever. Your money your hobby. Collect away. If you compulsively buy more games than you can afford and cannot stop, that's a different thing, and a problem.

Hoarding is a mental health issue, collecting things isn't.

AYRT.

Funnily enough books is one of the things my mum hoards and years ago I had to throw out a whole bunch that she had just left in the bathroom that got mouldy and rotten because she couldn't throw them away despite the smell and hygiene issues. I had to crawl over piles of books and old boxes just to get out of my room every day, my brothers room was her second clothes dumping ground(the floor of her room was covered with piles of them) just...

Having a thing you collect isn't hoarding, certainly not if it's properly stored somewhere and out of the way.

My sympathies to you nonny. I have had to deal with family members hoarding as well. I don't really find it funny to joke about being proud to be a hoarder. It was traumatizing to live with.

AYRT.

It's rough and unless someone lives with it they don't always get it. I'm sorry for you as well anon.
