[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 79150, member: 3444"] It might just be an issue of "fit" -- but I'd definitely let the psychiatrist know about ALL of this. Perhaps they're not just random pieces... EVERYONE in my house (except me [img]:wink:[/img] ) hoards something. easy child hoards stuffed animals. husband hoards stuff I can't talk about here. difficult child 1 used to hoard Yugioh and Pokemon cards and just STUFF/toy junk -- although he's not in accumulation mode now, just retention mode (won't let me throw anything out). Maybe it's the Lexapro helping? When difficult child 2 was younger, he would hoard plastic animals and Hotwheels cars. Then it was rocks. Last summer it was live lizards, but he's much better about it now with his new medications and is happy to have just 2 in his room, compared to 15 a few months ago. <u>[i][b]WARNING: Graphic subject matter to follow![/b][/i]</u> FWIW, my difficult child 1 has been known to pee AND deficate in various containers when in the tub. I found containers stashed in various locations in the bathroom. He's left some floaters a few times as well. [img]:bath:[/img] He'd stammer and stonewall every time he was confronted. I eventually got it out of him that he had to go but didn't want to get out of the warm water... and as for the bm issues, it was often a case of not realizing he had to go and mistook the sensation for needing to pass gas. Then he'd try to clean up as best he could with whatever container was on hand. WHY he didn't bother to just dump it in the toilet, I will NEVER understand! I banned him from the tub for about 6 months. It never happens in the shower. [/QUOTE]
