Merger discussion[edit]

I propose that hoarder house be merged into this article. I'm currently working on an epidemiology section for the article which will include the relevant information from hoarder house. Luiysia (talk) 21:22, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merging with hoarder house is not relatable because article has been redirected to Hoarding disorder as a separate disorder. Dcotos (talk) 14:55, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Linking Hoarding Disorder to Disability page[edit]

Hoarding disorder has been recognized as a disability and is now covered uner the Americans with Disabilities Act (and likely other countries' similar governance agencies). I think it would be helpful to have a formal link to Disability page. There should also be more formal references to the International Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Foundation (IOCDF), which has excellent resources for both professionals and those looking for help. This article would also benefit from updated works by Dr.Frost et al. MTshepherdess (talk) 04:58, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
