Do you know someone who you think might be a boarder line hoarder?
Let’s admit it—at some point in your life, you have probably gone through a slob-like phase.
But hoarders are on another level.
A slob’s life is characterized by lack of cleanliness and tidiness with food and belongings scattered over everywhere.
To some extent, we all have probably gone through a slob-like phase. Many even resort to this style of living as they transition from adolescence to coming to grips with the responsibilities of adulthood. Most people live like slobs during their university years particularly if they live in dorms. The same also holds true during that first year as fresh graduates when people are looking for a job and running for interviews everywhere.
You might even become a slob after a breakup or heart break or any other emotionally traumatic moment. Since this is a coping mechanism for some people, that shouldn’t bother you much. What you should not allow yourself, however, is to completely adopt a slob’s lifestyle for that can affect you in multiple ways.
- Risk to Health
A slob’s lifestyle is one associated with lack of activity and messy surroundings. Living like a slob is characterized by not bothering to wear fresh clothes or bathe and instead opting to plop down on the bed to eat and work.
This creates a breeding ground for germs and diseases which can impact your health. Not to mention a sedentary way of life is not good for your health—whether physical or mental. If you don’t catch yourself at the right time, you might develop problems for life.
- Disorganization
With clothing and other objects everywhere, a slob’s life is primarily characterized by disorganization and chaos. You will never know where things are and what their proper places are. This means you might not find them in time when the need arises and thus shortchange your prospects.
This disorganization slowly begins to spread towards other facets of your life and personality.

- Risk of Injury
With a disheveled room buried in half eaten food or clothes, you are more likely to hurt yourself.
You might not be able to see where you are placing your feet in the dead of night or trip against some hidden edge or corner and hurt your toe or knee.
Chances are that if you let things devolve to such an extent, you are likely living alone and then no one will be available to help you.
- Isolation
Lastly, a slob’s lifestyle will increasingly make you insular and isolated. The apathy extends to your view towards mingling and socialization and you begin to avoid meeting people.
Even if you do want to invite people, they will avoid you because of the state of your dwellings.
