-
It's a psychopathology similar to hoarding.
-
So when we say collector
-
We're not talking about stamps or baseball cards.
-
It's not what your kids or even you
-
Might pursue as a normal hobby.
-
This is an attachment to objects that's become obsessive
-
By someone who is antisocial and extremely introverted.
-
These people attach a part of themselves
-
To their collection.
-
If you try to separate them from it
-
Or take it away from them
-
They will react violently even psychotically.
