Hoarding disorder with poor to absent insight – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1355001928

All definitional requirements of hoarding disorder are met. Most or all of the time, the individual is convinced that that hoarding-related beliefs and behaviours (pertaining to excessive acquisition, difficulty discarding, or clutter) are not problematic, despite evidence to the contrary. The lack of insight exhibited by the individual does not vary markedly as a function of anxiety level.
