 The New Obsession of Technology Age, "Digital Hoarding"




People collect the tools and equipment they use in their daily lives. This behavior is common to every human being. However, some people take this normal behavior further. The individual's desire to stack even "useless" items causes difficulty in his daily life. With the age of technology, digital hoarding has also been added to this pathological disease. Stuff that is kept and not deleted on computers or mobile devices is slowly driving people to this situation. In his research on that subject, psychiatrist Onur Okan Demirci stated that if this behavior affected the quality of life, the person should have received psychological support and also stated that the main reason might be the lack of self-confidence.
