Food hoarding is a mental illness and one of the hoarding disorders.
Hoarding disorders are characterized by excessive and irrational collecting of certain things, with food hoarding being the most common.
There is a big difference between hoarding disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
People with obsessive-compulsive disorder often feel miserable, but hoarders enjoy it. They can get a lot of satisfaction and happiness from the process and results of hoarding things.
Avella didn't have this problem before.
After the outbreak of the blood epidemic, the first experience of being trapped at home without food made Elvira suffer from mild anxiety and food hoarding. Simply put, she was afraid of hunger.
Eating is the most basic physiological need of human beings, and hunger is an extremely painful torture.
After experiencing starvation, Avila always wanted to hide some food secretly when she saw it. Even if she would not eat additional food, just thinking about the food hidden somewhere,
She will feel extremely happy in her heart.
When moving to the base camp, Avella did not take the food she hid in the gospel church with her, and those were all cold hard steamed buns, which were probably given to rats for cheap.
After arriving in Jixi Town, faced with a dazzling array of food, Avila couldn't help but start again.
Of course, Avella is still very picky. She chooses high-calorie compressed biscuits, canned beef and sandwich biscuits. Avila does not like wafer biscuits.
Just like that, I stole a little bit every night, and after a while, Avila's bed was already full. The key is that she hid it very well. If Clyde hadn't installed a camera here, she really wouldn't have been able to find her.
Okay, the matter is clear. So, how should she be punished?
To be honest, the matter of stealing things is difficult to deal with. What is especially difficult to deal with is that Avila has the status of director.
It certainly should not be taken lightly. A wrong decision is worse than no decision, because it will give people a wrong psychological expectation, and a wrong psychological bottom line will make people do things more boldly.
However, Elvira's situation is quite special. First, she did not consume all the stolen goods, but recovered them all. Second, objectively speaking, she has mental illness, and stealing is a way of self-help to alleviate her condition.
Behavior.
It should be handled lightly, because Avila's status as a director will leave new members with the impression that the old members are protecting each other.
If the treatment is serious, it is easy to give the old members a sense of empathy, sadness and anger. At present, the old members are the foundation of the gospel team, and a team cannot just dig up its own roots.
It can be said that this is not a big thing but not a small difficulty.
Everyone is waiting for Iger to come back, just to hear his opinion.
Before Iger spoke, Vance first put forward his own opinion.
His meaning was simple, to directly kick Avella off the board of directors as punishment.
But Andy immediately objected. He believed that the current substitute director on the board of directors was only Iger. After all, Iger made a mistake and was sent off. Just a few days later, he was replaced. This would inevitably make the members feel that the board of directors is too childish.
weaken the authority of directors.
Sister Maria and Father Locke did not speak. Sister Maria is the kind of person who has no objection to whatever you do. Father Locke has a problem of being unable to make decisions on certain differences that sound reasonable.
After listening to everyone's opinions, Iger thought for a while.
Personally speaking, Iger really wants to agree with Vance's opinion and kick Elvira off the board of directors. On the one hand, he can avenge his previous revenge, and on the other hand, he can make a comeback.
However, from a team perspective, Andy was right. A series of large-scale defections had just occurred, and the board of directors was in shock again. Iger felt that this would affect the cohesion of the team.
If the old members themselves are not united, what do the new members think of you?
Besides, Iger's current status is a bit transcendent.
From a team perspective, he is the captain of the field team, which is a unique identity. With this identity, Iger's actual authority is very large.
Whether in theory or in practice, if Iger sees any team member he doesn't like, he can force him into the field team, wear small shoes for him, and assign him heavy work. As long as he doesn't feed the infected person , no one dares to say that what he did was wrong.
Gu base
Moreover, Egger also has the authority to report on field work. How to allocate attendance points is in the hands of him as the captain.
Egger told Clyde that this was not a threat, but a statement.
In addition, privately speaking, Iger is Father Locke's godson, and even a blind person can see the meaning of Father Locke's high-profile statement.
Iger himself is an alternate director, and he also has a long experience as a director. As long as he has the support of Father Locke, he can directly jump from the alternate director to the chairman of the board.
Therefore, the current number of directors is not that important to Iger. On the contrary, he occupies the position of substitute director, which can perfectly block the people behind him.
Anyone who wants to join the board of directors must first pass him.
This is the same as Masked Sweetheart claiming to be an S-level goalkeeper.
After thinking for a long time, Iger raised his head and expressed his opinion to the people who were watching him.
"I think theft is a very bad and intolerable behavior, because in the final analysis, theft is also a kind of betrayal of one's companions." Vance was very satisfied with the tone that Iger set when he opened his mouth. As a result, he just said it. .
"However, things need to be analyzed in detail." Egger changed his tone and then said: "When we see something, we not only need to look at the result, but also the process, and at the same time, we also need to look at the motivation. I think the motivation is sometimes arranged on top of results.
Good motives may also bring bad results. This is an accident and is not my intention.
Likewise, bad motives may lead to good results, which is also an accident.
Although the probability of accidents in life is very low, they will always happen.
If we judge good or bad purely by the results, accidents will become interference items that cannot be eliminated.
So I think that recognizing the motive is one of the most basic conditions for judging something."
Iger thinks that his speaking skills are not as good as Andy's. In fact, Andy is better at sensationalism, while Iger's language is more logical.
Egger's language habits are also the fundamental reason why he remained single until his death: girls like to hear some emotional words instead of talking about "because" and "if then".
After Iger said these words, everyone nodded.
After looking at Avella, Egger said: "I have known Avella for a long time, and she is the first survivor I successfully rescued.
In my opinion, Elvira has many advantages and many shortcomings. But these shortcomings do not include greed.
I believe that when Elvira stole these supplies, she did not think about consuming them. It was purely an uncontrollable behavior.
I think we should distinguish this behavior from theft due to selfishness and greed."
As soon as Avila heard what Iger said, she immediately stopped crying and smiled gratefully at him.
"However, it will definitely not work if we just let this matter go. Without rewards and punishments for doing things, the team will inevitably collapse." Iger said to everyone: "We must first formulate a rule. How much is the penalty for stealing?"
It is definitely irrational to give a penalty of ten for stealing. Such a high penalty will only make people take risks. In the end, everyone decided on the penalty of three for stealing.
"Okay." Iger turned to Sister Maria and asked: "Sister Maria, how many points can be converted into credit points for the materials Elvira stole?"
Sister Maria made an estimate and said: "At least 6 o'clock."
After Egger nodded, he said sternly to everyone: "My suggestion is that because Avila's special condition made her unable to control herself, in order to alleviate her condition, she stole the supplies belonging to the team.
Considering the special nature of Avila's condition, there will be no additional punishment this time. The most basic punishment will be one for stealing and three for penalty, and Avila will be deducted 18 points."
As soon as Iger said this, everyone quickly agreed.
