Is The Habit Of Urinating In Bottles A Psychological Issue?
Hi, This is very odd but my 34 yr old male roommate has been collecting beer bottles in his room and he pees into them. He s not throwing them away but rather letting them sit and mold. I ve noticed that some have spilled over and he s attempted to clean it up but...the trash can is overflowing with paper debris and now those papers are sitting in the trash can. The bathroom is right across from his door. Is this a psychological condition (like hoarding or?) or a person who is just lazy? Your answer will help me to determine if I need to kick him out or use a little kindness and suggest therapy. Thank you!

your friend needs to be taken to a psychiatrist at the earliest, there may be numerous more issues which may be lurking below the surface.
he needs professional help. it would be good if you cajoled him in seeing a doctor and also accompany him to intimate the doctor the symptoms you have noticed. be a good Samaritan and help him out
