Being a fully qualified pseudopsychologist, I'd like to kick-off a series of personality profiles by describing a type of person we all have met, the compulsive hoarder.
* When visiting their home, you notice growing mounds of newspapers, magazines and miscellaneous papers that are apparently too valuable to throw away. Before you know it, these mounds take on a life of their own and can end up covering every available space on tables, desks, sideboards and even on the floor.
* If you attempt to tidy up one of their mounds, they become agitated and stressed. They think that there is a system to their piles and you've disrupted it
* Should you throw away any material which resembles rubbish without their approval, they will head out to the bin to search through it for their "valuables".
