Mephitztopheles makes perfect sense. This kind of reminds me of how doctors will just make a diagnoses or say nothing is wrong when it’s something complex. Are they the all knowing brain? Shouldn’t they check in with other medical professionals??? I know they went through a lot of school, but school doesn’t give you all the answers.

Hoarding is so hard to understand and so sad. My friend’s mother was a hoarder. Believe it or not, it was worse than this. There was a narrow pathway through their house but everything was piled to the ceiling. Unfortunately, her mother died from brain cancer when Merlinna was only 20. So Merlinna became responsible for the walls and walls of hoarding that her mother had created over the years. It’s tough to understand and it’s sad. People usually don’t recover from it, even with help and support.
Yeah I was raised by my grandmother, who’s a hoarder. She only now in her 70s allowing me to go through her stuff. I’m grateful she’s accepting my help, she used to go through my trash when I threw things out “just in case” so she’s come a long way. I also started hoarding when I was younger but thankfully Hoarders helped motivate me to change that.
@@sourgreendolly7685 I am glad you didn't go down the same path, and that you're there for your grandma. How did you not go down the same path, do you think?
I was a hoarder. It was hard to accept help from friends and family, but I wanted to change. It is slow going, but I have gotten rid of several hundred pounds of stuff. I am not finished, but my place looks so much better than it did.
What’s really funny is that the lady was complaining about having to throw away 10-15$ cups when she probably kept buying new cups not thinking about the price because she needed cups because all the cups she already had were dirty and couldn’t be washed because the sink was so full.
One of my rental properties for years had a hoarder living in both apartments in the duplex. They paid rent on time but they were just dirty slobs. I had to go in multiple times to clean up and again when both died a few years ago. The one got so mad when I threw out her mayo. It was sitting open on the table next to her chair. It was turning brown. She said she was going to eat it. I had to clean all her dishes. She put her dishes, pots, pans everything back in the cabinets dirty. Food caked to them she just kept eating off them and she ate she was probably 400-500lbs. She must have scooted on her ass naked across the living room like a dog once because there was a giant skidmark the whole way through the room. She flushed Walmart bags for some reason and didn't bother to say anything or attempt to fix it herself so instead she wore diapers and shit her pants then threw the diapers into the bathtub. So she wasn't showering or anything and she was to lazy to throw out shit filled diapers I had to do it. I didn't know about it till her plumbing started leaking into the laundry room below her bathroom that was shared. So I go to fix that shitty washer and dryer and find shit filled diapers above. Made me extra happy to clean that up. Can't imagine being such a lazy fat slob you can't even throw out your shitty diapers. The one on the other side didn't like having to go upstairs to go to his bathroom so he would just piss in the trash can in his kitchen or open the window and pee out the window. I had to replace the heater for that side once he was pissing into the vent in the floor that eventually made its way into the furnance.
There's a Korean RUclips channel kind of similar to this show. It's called CleanAvengers. They help depressed people deal with their emotions and explain why their homes/apartments have gotten to where they are. Then a whole team comes in and cleans their house top to bottom. The people on there, I feel really bad for. A lot of them have gotten to where they are because of circumstances in their lives (horrible breakups, domestic abuse, etc). You guys should take a look
I second the recommendation! The people who run the show are so kind hearted too! They do their best to make the people feel better, while cleaning their homes ;_; it's really heart warming.. I ultimately do hope the people who they're helping do find psychological help but it is nice to make sure their living spaces are at least taken care of, so that's one concern off their list yanno.
they should toss everything there's probably bug eggs everywhere. I wouldn't want to bring any of the shit back into the house after fumigation and cleaning because you're just gonna get re infested
You know, you're joking, but setting up a fire on the house of a hoarder is extremely easy, worryingly so. It's because there's flammable objects everywhere. It's one of the reasons often brought up as a reason to change the situation they're in, even.
I was amazed at how many different species of cockroaches were in that single home lol! That's like cockroach world with each part of the home containing a different race haha!
I have PTSD from this show. I remember watching this one episode when I was maybe 7 and this person lost their cat. It turned out that the cat actually died in the house and they found the corpse while decluttering the house. From that day I became really organized cuz I thought that could happen to me, and I could never have anything out of place or dirty. I guess seeing that worked for the better cuz now I'm really clean, but still...
@@xXJokerAtWorkXx I'll admit I'm not that ugly, but I pick the profile pic when I was in year 5, it's been 5 years since then and I'm still too lazy to change it 💀
Although it is considered an illness, it’s never just the person that’s affected... in this case I bet the neighborhood was affected when she cleaned up because that many roaches have to go somewhere...
They probably bombed and killed them. Hopefully they treated the yard too otherwise they chill outside till the coast is clear. I do feel bad for the next door neighbors though. They probably got it the worst.
@@lala_lakeypoo That was exactly my thought! There is a neighborhood in our city that is known to have a roach problem. My friend lived there years ago. She said they would hire exterminators and the roaches that survived would just go to the house next door. Then the next door neighbors would bomb and the roaches would just find another house to inhabit.
It’s always a Bit annoying when people are like “mind your business” about messes and hoarding. Ok well mind your roaches, they’re in my damn hard. Come get your pets. It’s not just the one person- family and surrounding people can be affected negatively. It’s a healthy, physical, emotional, and psychological impact.
Hoarding is a show I watch a lot but it’s also very depressing especially when you find out what has caused them to hoard, we actually had a person that hoarded his house until he couldn’t enter his house he lived outside of it, and we aren’t sure what’s happened he may have died because he disappeared for months until finally we saw that his house was being demolished, it’s very sad not knowing if he’s alive or dead I’m hoping he just got some help but the way it looks it feels like he didn’t make it 😔
I helped someone who inherited a home from their aunt, and the home was a hoarders home. The aunt went to Kmart everyday and bought all the cheap stuff. Multiples of everything just stacked up from the floor to the ceiling. Had to climb on piles to get to other rooms. The pile in the dining room kitchen was so high that my head was at the ceiling. The only thing we found really of value was $20 in a birthday card.
Rebecca Campbell it’s so sad because the guy by us when I would go in the nearby thrift store I’d see him just buying random things, it actually even got to the point of his car and his rv that he had were completely filled, it’s so sad how things happen when it comes to a hoarder
when you got upset at the animals I was like "THANK YOU". I always get so mad when they have pets. this is animal abuse. imagine how freaking stressed out these animals are living in this mess. I saw one episode that I had to turn off because the woman had over 20 cats in her house at one point and they kept finding dead, rotting cats everywhere. I got so mad.
My sister's best friend from high school was on that show. Her episode was Diana and the daughter was Reba. We (the townspeople) had no idea they lived that way. I even went there once in high school because my then boyfriend was best friends with the oldest son. We sat in the garage and it looked pretty normal. They wouldn't let us in the house, though, and now I know why.
Fun fact: Therapists/psychologists usually have their own provided therapists/psychologists if they get affected by things they talk about with their patients, it's like a not-so-cute-little cycle of helpers.
Also wen they do psychotherapy courses, it’s mandatory for them to have clocked in a certain amount of therapy hours with their own therapist otherwise cannot become a therapist/psychologist, I’m guessing in her case she needed to stay on with hers lolz 😂
I know many dudes who start going bald young. My brothers best friend started going bald at 17, and my brothers hairline is already receding and we are only 24.
Yea balding for men sometimes is just inevitable if depends heavily on genes. However yes stress and unhealthy lifestyles can contribute to early balding for sure. To know if you will bald early or not you really just have to look at your father and ask him when started balding, most men tend to start in their mid 30's anyway. You can help combat it with hormonal type of therapy and other treatments
The fact that her son feels like can't leave his mom in *HER* alone because he doesn't feel like she would be safe really shows how far her hoarding has gotten
THE ROACHES 😫 I do feel bad for the families but I do think that it’s selfish for them to bring animals and pets because a lot of the times they end up dying or getting crushed, even getting sickness I think they shouldn’t put another living being through it but they need help understanding what’s wrong
Yes, there was one episode years ago where one lady had lost her cat and the found its corpse when they were cleaning 😱💀🤮 It's not fair or safe for the animals to live in such a state.
I think a big problem is that over time this has become somewhat “normal” to them. Like their perception of what is and is not clean & safe is totally skewed so they think it’s safe for animals to be there. The first time my family adopted a dog we had a home inspection & I thought it was weird at the time but now I understand why
@@barrymichlowitz1071 Of course it's not, but in this case the son is a grown man who probably could get out of the house (but didn't want to leave his mom alone, it seemed like). It's not like the animals can move out or do anything to improve their situation.
Honestly, if you've ever had the misfortune of living in a place infested with roaches you know despite the clean floors roaches still rule that house. Especially since they haven't cleaned everything yet. Before I saw her bathroom I thought maybe they had fumigated but considering the bathroom is still not decluttered there are roaches everywhere still. In the television for sure. It's gross where they choose to make their nests but it happens everywhere once you're infested. (I lived in a motel converted to apartments once that was roach-infested and it was absolutely horrific. When I moved out roaches followed me in my belongings to the next place I lived and we had to fumigate and treat roaches for a period after moving in)
Omg thats terrifying, i hate roaches so much i dont know if i could handle that 😭 when i see a gross insect in my room i literally cant sleep until i kill it (PETA dont come for me lol)
@@rosiered3403 Oh yeah I completely agree, it's neglect. just awful! Now that I think about it, something like that happened in my town years ago except the police got involved, it was a hoarder with tons and tons of horribly neglected chihuahuas. Thankfully they all got rescued and re-homed. Just seeing the pictures of them made me mad though, I don't understand how somebody could do that...
Don’t watch the one where the old lady literally starved her dog and cat and birds to death and kept their corpses in her house :( it’s one of the worst things I’ve ever seen.
The worst one I saw was a hoarder that had lost MULTIPLE pets and didn't really seem to care, and when the house was being cleared out, they found some of pets mummified and buried under piles of garbage, flat as pancakes
I live in an apartment and we got roaches, hard to get rid of them when there’s tenants who have varying degrees of the definition ‘clean.’ But we keep our apartment quite clean and leave traps for them, replace our dog’s water and food and when he does see a roach, he just stares at it for a bit then goes back to napping. Its minding its own business and our dog is minding his own business lol. But goddamn this video pissed me right off when it showed the roach in the dog’s food segment, what’s the point of owning a pet if you can’t take of the environment you’re putting it in? It’s just neglect and/or abuse at that point.
there are cockroaches that mill about where i live too, in the house we have a lot of cockroach killers so usually they turn up dead and they can be hastily cleared away. but omg i felt this so much- like dont?? leave cockroaches?? with your dogs food?? please??
I saw that if you buy Welch’s Grape juice and put some in a container, all the roaches will fall in and drown since it’s smells sweet to them, I hope this was useful
For roaches, once they get in it’s impossible to get them out no matter how clean you are. The people who lived in my house previously were dirty and so the house came with roaches. It took years and several exterminators for it to be okay. At the worst of it, they usually only came out at night ugh it’s terrible to even think about I’m so sorry you’re going through that
I am so thankful to live in Canada. Roaches, never! Most I worry about are fruit flies, moths, ants, june bugs and stupid cherry beetles. All easy to get rid of and disappear in the winter. Sweet winter peace.
Actually some hoarders when they go out in public, appear to be very clean. Most likely you wouldn’t be able to tell if someone was hoarding. This is a very sad and serious problem. This is not something to make fun of or make mean comments.
Bed bugs, maybe. Whether you get them has nothing to do with how clean you are. But when a hoarder does get them it's really unlikely they'll be able to get rid of them, since a proper extermination would require the mess to be cleaned up first. Bed bugs would be more likely to be hiding in the clutter in and around the bed, though, not crawling in her hair. They're too clumsy to crawl around in hair without just falling off when you move around, mostly, and they don't have any reason to go there anyway.
As a college student, I worked as a house cleaner to make partying money. I once was called into a house in North Hollywood like this, except way worse. There were cockroaches everywhere. You can see them crawling on the walls and floor. The renter had just a mattress in the living room, not in his bedroom because the infestation was worse there. I lifted a stack of newspapers in his bathroom and hundreds of baby cockroaches ran out. I left immediately. I still have nightmares.
My Mom died 3.5 years ago. Last week we finally emptied the last of the stuff in her house to be able to sell the property. I am still feeling numb. After all this time, I expected to be elated, but mostly I'm sad because of the devastation of mental illness. This show is actually what taught me and my sister what was going on with our mom. It was so helpful, but we ran out of time to help her.
You know, as long as it keeps their mind in check I won't bother anyone doing this about it. I know this show has taught me to keep the amount of items at home to a minimum. Because when they reach a certain amount, you can't keep track of them anymore and they become useless because you either forget where they are or just, that they exist altogether.
I don't think it's messed up. It's always good to get a reminder of how bad things can be. You solidify the standards at which you want to live. It's a way of checking in on your mental health, too. Of course, it can go to the extreme - like if you watch hoarders and then clean your house with a toothbrush and bleach, or watch 600lb life and go on a starvation diet out of body dysmorphia. The human brain is a complex and difficult place! 😂
It's hard to understand at times why people hoard and let themselves live this way. But by watching the British version of this show on YT, I found out that it's a form of sickness that needs to treated.
It’s a condition where those who have experienced loss project that fear onto objects so they’ll collect (fulfilled connection) and then fear throwing them away (loss). It builds and builds if, like you said, it goes untreated 😥
To add to the other person’s reply, the common denominator of hoarders is that they have big trauma/s they experience and that’s when they start hoarding. Usually it’s a loss of a loved one. They try to surround themselves with materials to kind of psychologically fill the void they feel. You know when you feel sad and depressed and you just want to wrap yourself burrito-style in a blanket and cry in your bed all day? It’s like that, but on a bigger, house-scale. It’s really something.
@@wendyshandcrackedeggs6791 It's referring to how the Cobbler makes and repairs shoes all day but when he is done with his work, he neglects to repair or make shoes for himself or his family because that's the last thing he wants to do when his work is over. I thought that it applied to her because she practices taking care of her clients' emotional needs but she doesn't take care of her own emotional needs and issues when she's at home. This has caused her to use hording to try to remedy the emotional issues that she's dealing with. (sorry for being so long-winded with the answer )
This proves two things: 1. No one is immune to psychological disorders. One can be really good at taking care of other people yet be neglectful of him/herself due to unresolved issues which manifests as disorders if not properly addressed. 2. Psychological disorders can be managed if not fully treated. This is through therapy, support from loved ones and insight as seen on the video. So happy for her! Recovery is possible everyone! ❤️
@@cutiekoo7162 The poop lady? Oh no I don't think I've seen that one... The 2 that I was thinking of was the one where she had diapers piled in the bathroom, and they ended up finding 4 dead cats in the house. The other one was an older couple, and they had filled the house, to where some rooms weren't even accessible anymore. Those were really disturbing.
@@salia3542 yup and then she started pooping in buckets and throwing it out in the yard. She also swore that other people were dirty when she went out in public. That episode was wild
Most psychologists need a psychologist or doctor. Everyone needs therapy or help every now and then. Just to clear up the stigma. Alot of helpers in this society tend to forget to look after themselves because their focus is so much on helping others. Also to treat or diagnose oneself you should also get someone to help for support and for second or third opinion.
She needs a therapist and a shit-ton of self-care, hoarding is just the symptom of the problem spilling out, since the house symbolises herself & her being and all the junk in the house is her state of mind and her own issues
i used to live in a cheap house that had a roach infestation under it (tiny little roaches not big ones thankfully) and that was enough to make me paranoid about roaches getting in my ears. How do people live like thisss arrrrrrhhghgg. I feel so sorry for them!
@xXaRIANa HilTONxX hahah yeah I used to sleep with a spare pillow over the side of my head or if i had any, I'd stick cotton balls in my ears. When i was little i had a baby sitter who got a roach in her ear that latched onto her eardrum. When her husband tried to pull it out it broke in half still attached to her eardrum and had to go to doctor. No wonder I'm paranoid hahah
@@TorgoMazing when I was 7 I woke up to a spider hanging down and was 5 centimetres away from my face. I rolled out of bed (literally) and cried for the rest of the day. And showered and cleaned my whole bedroom. Now I'm scared of spiders and it doesn't help that my friends own tarantulas.
I think Hoarders on A&E is the better of the two hoarding shows. It's a little more in depth and they offer aftercare services. I'm not sure if TLC's show does.
I wonder if they have similar time constraints? I've never seen this one, but on all the episodes of Hoarders on A&E that I have seen, they only have 2-3 days for cleanup.
I remember being severely depressed a few years ago. My room looked kind of similar to this (smaller scale though, no roaches and stuff just rotting foods and trash), and it didn't really phase me at that time because I just stopped caring about everything. I saw no point in doing things because I was in a habit of convincing myself that everything was pointless. I think the thing that pulled me out of that mindset was finally finding what I wanted to do with my life, and then subsequently coming to the realisation through logic that I won't be able to live that way with that mindset. From there I began gradually shifting myself back to some sort of "normal" through firstly cleaning my room from as much clutter as I could (still some extra things in there because of lack of space elsewhere, but getting rid of those things soon), and then setting myself a daily schedule and forcing myself to complete it. It's really difficult to get out of situations like this when you're already deep in them, because you're forced to give up what you've become familiar with entirely if you want to turn things around, and it's tough to do so because at the same time your living environment becomes your primary source of comfort and sometimes the only thing you're familiar with. Depending on how long you've been in this situation, and how severe your situation, you also may have to re-teach yourself basically everything in terms of self care, control etc. It's embarrassing to admit that you have a problem that's this bad, but at the same time it's completely necessary to acknowledge otherwise a full recovery isn't possible. In my case, therapy wasn't an option, it actually just made my depression worse because the therapist was only there for the money, so I stopped going and had to go through this battle myself. Luckily I managed to beat my own depression, I still get mild cases occasionally due to another condition I'm currently in the middle of dealing with, but the furthest it gets is a plate of food left out overnight or something nowadays. I'm very grateful for TV shows like hoarders that show the impacts that such conditions can have on those suffering and also others around them. Even though it shows these struggles publicly, and these struggles are more on the long-term severe end of the spectrum most of the time, it's one of those conversations that needs to be had but people find it difficult to talk about. Shows like these help to demonstrate to people that misinterpret conditions or don't really understand what the reality is like to suffer from them that it's a debilitating illness, not some sort of aesthetic or personality quirk..
3:09 all I could think of was an episode of Hoarders where a lady had so much garbage layered on top of her floor, that when people came to peel away the layers, they found multiple flattened cat carcasses
really interesting that she is a psychologist who treats addiction... definitely a "Do as I say, not do as I do" scenario with her... I recall the first time I'd ever heard of hoarding was on an Oprah show a long time ago and similar situation where a lady (with 3 dogs) not only was reluctant to throw things away, but didn't even clean up after her dogs, and the poop was everywhere... the show paid for professional cleaners to redo her place (and you could see the lady had problems throwing stuff away, as everything meant something to her)... and when they revisited her some time later, she was slipping back into her old habits, and that's when they had her see a psych and she was diagnosed as a hoarder.... can't recall if she ever totally recovered or not.... it was disgusting.....
Okay, why tf is LPD so beautiful. I tryed to watch the hoarders but could not keep my eyes away from her. I love her style. She looks like a ball of sunshine. So cute🥰
Theres a lot of people in mental health care who are battling their own mental illnesses. You can help those you can relate to but that doesnt mean you can be your own saviour. I hope she get a good doctor who doesnt judge her and she continues getting help.
@@ChiZillaaa that show freaks me out! The food rubbish and dirty dishes just makes me cringe! There was one with a clogged toilet. So don't understand!
@@cherylmedeiros6287 I saw one (UK version of hoarders) where the bathroom was inaccessible - so he peed in the sink and went to the pub to poop. Another one had the boiler broken, so she had washed herself in cold water for years because a repairman couldn't get to the boiler D: I keep thinking nothing can shock me, and then I get even more shocked lol (like a woman who had her entire hallway covered in kitty litter because she never threw it out, just poured more on top)
@@Tanjaaraus ok sometimes I barely make it to the next room to pop let alone somewhere else. I'm sure the pub isn't 24 hrs. And peeing in the sink and cat litter in the hallway? How does the health hi department not get involved.
@@cherylmedeiros6287 If it's private homes I don't think the health department can do anything? I guess someone could decide to condemn a building, but that is more if there is a huge structural fault or fire-risk. And yeah, he was this little old man too, so I don't know how he did it either! All I know is that I want to clean and keep a minimalist style after I watch an episode lol
I appreciate the people who try to get better. I remember this one dude who lived alone and instead of getting mad and telling people to not throw his stuff away, he let them do their thing. They cleaned up the house and he got a new house. I think he’s much happier now.
There is one episode of UK hoarders I think, where a narrow hallway is just feet upon feet of solid kitty litter. Because she didn't empty the litter boxes, just poured more on top, and then the sand went outside the litter boxes and she just kept pouring - so it was a mountain of litter with years worth of cat pee and poop in it. It was sooo satisfying to watch her apartment get nice(r) again! I really hope she kept at it for the cat's sake
Zoey, helping her friend expand her fanbase, is as selfless as always. 😊 ...and Mini Vom 🤣 I am going to use that in a sentence at my earliest convenience 🤣
Total guess but I’m thinking part of the hoarding extends to old/rotten food which attracts a TON of roaches then it’s just too overwhelming to clean all the time and, like the son said, they just give up
I love how all your videos are wholesome. Even this one started wholesome but then BOOM. ROACHES. and all wholesomeness stopped XD I couldn't. Roaches are where the line gets drawn
It's novel of them to attempt to clean that but they need to burn that house down... roaches are hard to get rid of. I also love that Zoey and Lpd judge the situation more than the person.
My grandma had a medium case of hoarding (I couldn’t go upstairs in their house for almost 20 years because it got so full), my dad has a mild case, and honestly sometimes I feel like I get a bit of it sometimes too. The executive functioning messes up and I’m sitting here going “JUST. SWEEP. THE FLOOR. JUST. DO IT!!!” and I can’t. And once the clutter starts it’s hard to stop and it just gets more and more depressing. I don’t have that much stuff (except craft supplies and books lol but I feel like a little bit of accumulation there is normal haha) so it can never get that bad, but it’s still rough. Anyway, I get grossed out easily so I’ve never watched this show, but it’s sobering to see. Hope I never get that bad!

Hoarding is so hard to understand and so sad. My friend’s mother was a hoarder. Believe it or not, it was worse than this. There was a narrow pathway through their house but everything was piled to the ceiling.
Unfortunately, her mother died from brain cancer when Merlinna was only 20. So Merlinna became responsible for the walls and walls of hoarding that her mother had created over the years. It’s tough to understand and it’s sad. People usually don’t recover from it, even with help and support.
Yeah I was raised by my grandmother, who’s a hoarder. She only now in her 70s allowing me to go through her stuff. I’m grateful she’s accepting my help, she used to go through my trash when I threw things out “just in case” so she’s come a long way.
I also started hoarding when I was younger but thankfully Hoarders helped motivate me to change that.
@@sourgreendolly7685
I am glad you didn't go down the same path, and that you're there for your grandma. How did you not go down the same path, do you think?
I was a hoarder. It was hard to accept help from friends and family, but I wanted to change. It is slow going, but I have gotten rid of several hundred pounds of stuff. I am not finished, but my place looks so much better than it did.
Diane Thoroughman You can do it!!
@@jaessoul Thank you. 🙂😷
What’s really funny is that the lady was complaining about having to throw away 10-15$ cups when she probably kept buying new cups not thinking about the price because she needed cups because all the cups she already had were dirty and couldn’t be washed because the sink was so full.
Ally Cazares I think she was just eating and drinking out of the dirty stuff, some people aren’t really phased by stuff like that
One of my rental properties for years had a hoarder living in both apartments in the duplex. They paid rent on time but they were just dirty slobs. I had to go in multiple times to clean up and again when both died a few years ago. The one got so mad when I threw out her mayo. It was sitting open on the table next to her chair. It was turning brown. She said she was going to eat it. I had to clean all her dishes. She put her dishes, pots, pans everything back in the cabinets dirty. Food caked to them she just kept eating off them and she ate she was probably 400-500lbs. She must have scooted on her ass naked across the living room like a dog once because there was a giant skidmark the whole way through the room. She flushed Walmart bags for some reason and didn't bother to say anything or attempt to fix it herself so instead she wore diapers and shit her pants then threw the diapers into the bathtub. So she wasn't showering or anything and she was to lazy to throw out shit filled diapers I had to do it. I didn't know about it till her plumbing started leaking into the laundry room below her bathroom that was shared. So I go to fix that shitty washer and dryer and find shit filled diapers above. Made me extra happy to clean that up. Can't imagine being such a lazy fat slob you can't even throw out your shitty diapers. The one on the other side didn't like having to go upstairs to go to his bathroom so he would just piss in the trash can in his kitchen or open the window and pee out the window. I had to replace the heater for that side once he was pissing into the vent in the floor that eventually made its way into the furnance.
There's a Korean RUclips channel kind of similar to this show. It's called CleanAvengers. They help depressed people deal with their emotions and explain why their homes/apartments have gotten to where they are. Then a whole team comes in and cleans their house top to bottom. The people on there, I feel really bad for. A lot of them have gotten to where they are because of circumstances in their lives (horrible breakups, domestic abuse, etc). You guys should take a look
I second the recommendation! The people who run the show are so kind hearted too! They do their best to make the people feel better, while cleaning their homes ;_; it's really heart warming.. I ultimately do hope the people who they're helping do find psychological help but it is nice to make sure their living spaces are at least taken care of, so that's one concern off their list yanno.
YES. I love that channel soooo much.
Oh interesting
Oooh I'm definitely gonna check it out. Thanks 😊
Woah I actually recently started watching a lot of their videos, they are really great and have helped a lot of people live better 💕
they should toss everything there's probably bug eggs everywhere. I wouldn't want to bring any of the shit back into the house after fumigation and cleaning because you're just gonna get re infested
This wouldn’t work out well, you cannot let them throw out everything, this would be shocking to the person
Yeah, they're in the walls and electrics. She'd have to live very very clean and dry for a year or two before they would be totally gone.
fr at that point i was just like throw the whole house away...
I could never be a member on the cleaning crews they hire for these shows. I'd literally just set a match to the house and call it a day. 👩🏭🔥🏠
a bulldozer would work too.
You know, you're joking, but setting up a fire on the house of a hoarder is extremely easy, worryingly so. It's because there's flammable objects everywhere.
It's one of the reasons often brought up as a reason to change the situation they're in, even.
@@nodezsh Yeah I know, with all that stuff everywhere, the house would probably be up in flames in five minutes max.

I was noticing that. Different kinds. Im no roach expert but oh my god.
Lol cockroach world. True though, I could see so many different types of roaches

How do you know this?
I feel sorry for this woman. Of course she is sick. She cannot handle her life without help.
I have PTSD from this show. I remember watching this one episode when I was maybe 7 and this person lost their cat. It turned out that the cat actually died in the house and they found the corpse while decluttering the house. From that day I became really organized cuz I thought that could happen to me, and I could never have anything out of place or dirty. I guess seeing that worked for the better cuz now I'm really clean, but still...

Although it is considered an illness, it’s never just the person that’s affected... in this case I bet the neighborhood was affected when she cleaned up because that many roaches have to go somewhere...
They probably bombed and killed them. Hopefully they treated the yard too otherwise they chill outside till the coast is clear. I do feel bad for the next door neighbors though. They probably got it the worst.
@@lala_lakeypoo That was exactly my thought! There is a neighborhood in our city that is known to have a roach problem. My friend lived there years ago. She said they would hire exterminators and the roaches that survived would just go to the house next door. Then the next door neighbors would bomb and the roaches would just find another house to inhabit.
@@debstrout1844 Roaches are like Whack-A-Mole it seems.
It’s always a
Bit annoying when people are like “mind your business” about messes and hoarding. Ok well mind your roaches, they’re in my damn hard. Come get your pets. It’s not just the one person- family and surrounding people can be affected negatively. It’s a healthy, physical, emotional, and psychological impact.
At that point the only option was to commit chemical warfare
Hoarding is a show I watch a lot but it’s also very depressing especially when you find out what has caused them to hoard, we actually had a person that hoarded his house until he couldn’t enter his house he lived outside of it, and we aren’t sure what’s happened he may have died because he disappeared for months until finally we saw that his house was being demolished, it’s very sad not knowing if he’s alive or dead I’m hoping he just got some help but the way it looks it feels like he didn’t make it 😔
I helped someone who inherited a home from their aunt, and the home was a hoarders home. The aunt went to Kmart everyday and bought all the cheap stuff. Multiples of everything just stacked up from the floor to the ceiling. Had to climb on piles to get to other rooms. The pile in the dining room kitchen was so high that my head was at the ceiling. The only thing we found really of value was $20 in a birthday card.

Hoarders inspires me to clean
Rebecca Campbell it’s so sad because the guy by us when I would go in the nearby thrift store I’d see him just buying random things, it actually even got to the point of his car and his rv that he had were completely filled, it’s so sad how things happen when it comes to a hoarder
@@strawberryblaze3292 yes! I went into the backyard at one point and there was a full sized school bus back there crammed with trash also!
when you got upset at the animals I was like "THANK YOU". I always get so mad when they have pets. this is animal abuse. imagine how freaking stressed out these animals are living in this mess. I saw one episode that I had to turn off because the woman had over 20 cats in her house at one point and they kept finding dead, rotting cats everywhere. I got so mad.
The new FOX show "Housebroken" has a crazy cat lady in it as well.
My sister's best friend from high school was on that show. Her episode was Diana and the daughter was Reba. We (the townspeople) had no idea they lived that way. I even went there once in high school because my then boyfriend was best friends with the oldest son. We sat in the garage and it looked pretty normal. They wouldn't let us in the house, though, and now I know why.
Can you give us link on the episode I'm really curious
@@memecenter9gag859 episode 79
U know now
That'd crazy how well they hide their conditions
Fun fact: Therapists/psychologists usually have their own provided therapists/psychologists if they get affected by things they talk about with their patients, it's like a not-so-cute-little cycle of helpers.
Mmh not necessarily. It is called supervision, it is NOT therapy.
Also wen they do psychotherapy courses, it’s mandatory for them to have clocked in a certain amount of therapy hours with their own therapist otherwise cannot become a therapist/psychologist, I’m guessing in her case she needed to stay on with hers lolz 😂
omg the son is only 24 but is balding like that, must be from all of the stress his mom gave him
I had to go back like 3 time to confirm I heard it properly.
could be, but most likely genetics, some guys just bald super early
Im not trying to be mean or anything, but i thought he looked like 30... true, stress really does make people age faster..
I know many dudes who start going bald young. My brothers best friend started going bald at 17, and my brothers hairline is already receding and we are only 24.
Yea balding for men sometimes is just inevitable if depends heavily on genes. However yes stress and unhealthy lifestyles can contribute to early balding for sure. To know if you will bald early or not you really just have to look at your father and ask him when started balding, most men tend to start in their mid 30's anyway. You can help combat it with hormonal type of therapy and other treatments
The fact that her son feels like can't leave his mom in *HER* alone because he doesn't feel like she would be safe really shows how far her hoarding has gotten
THE ROACHES 😫 I do feel bad for the families but I do think that it’s selfish for them to bring animals and pets because a lot of the times they end up dying or getting crushed, even getting sickness I think they shouldn’t put another living being through it but they need help understanding what’s wrong
Yes, there was one episode years ago where one lady had lost her cat and the found its corpse when they were cleaning 😱💀🤮
It's not fair or safe for the animals to live in such a state.
I think a big problem is that over time this has become somewhat “normal” to them. Like their perception of what is and is not clean & safe is totally skewed so they think it’s safe for animals to be there. The first time my family adopted a dog we had a home inspection & I thought it was weird at the time but now I understand why
It is okay for her son to live there, but not pets?
@@barrymichlowitz1071 Of course it's not, but in this case the son is a grown man who probably could get out of the house (but didn't want to leave his mom alone, it seemed like). It's not like the animals can move out or do anything to improve their situation.
Yes they dont understand what they're doing though, they're in total denial.
i want to give the son who lives with her a hug, he seems so sad.

Honestly, if you've ever had the misfortune of living in a place infested with roaches you know despite the clean floors roaches still rule that house. Especially since they haven't cleaned everything yet. Before I saw her bathroom I thought maybe they had fumigated but considering the bathroom is still not decluttered there are roaches everywhere still. In the television for sure. It's gross where they choose to make their nests but it happens everywhere once you're infested. (I lived in a motel converted to apartments once that was roach-infested and it was absolutely horrific. When I moved out roaches followed me in my belongings to the next place I lived and we had to fumigate and treat roaches for a period after moving in)
Omg thats terrifying, i hate roaches so much i dont know if i could handle that 😭 when i see a gross insect in my room i literally cant sleep until i kill it (PETA dont come for me lol)
Damn roaches
the situations with animals in these shows always makes me upset too D:
A lot of hoarders seem to have pets. I view it as animal abuse.
@@rosiered3403 Oh yeah I completely agree, it's neglect. just awful! Now that I think about it, something like that happened in my town years ago except the police got involved, it was a hoarder with tons and tons of horribly neglected chihuahuas. Thankfully they all got rescued and re-homed. Just seeing the pictures of them made me mad though, I don't understand how somebody could do that...
Don’t watch the one where the old lady literally starved her dog and cat and birds to death and kept their corpses in her house :( it’s one of the worst things I’ve ever seen.
@@florencelove1895 oh my gosh that's horrifying. noooo thanks :(
The worst one I saw was a hoarder that had lost MULTIPLE pets and didn't really seem to care, and when the house was being cleared out, they found some of pets mummified and buried under piles of garbage, flat as pancakes
"It's not their house, it's the roaches'" lmaoo 😭
I live in an apartment and we got roaches, hard to get rid of them when there’s tenants who have varying degrees of the definition ‘clean.’ But we keep our apartment quite clean and leave traps for them, replace our dog’s water and food and when he does see a roach, he just stares at it for a bit then goes back to napping. Its minding its own business and our dog is minding his own business lol. But goddamn this video pissed me right off when it showed the roach in the dog’s food segment, what’s the point of owning a pet if you can’t take of the environment you’re putting it in? It’s just neglect and/or abuse at that point.
there are cockroaches that mill about where i live too, in the house we have a lot of cockroach killers so usually they turn up dead and they can be hastily cleared away. but omg i felt this so much- like dont?? leave cockroaches?? with your dogs food?? please??
I saw that if you buy Welch’s Grape juice and put some in a container, all the roaches will fall in and drown since it’s smells sweet to them, I hope this was useful
For roaches, once they get in it’s impossible to get them out no matter how clean you are. The people who lived in my house previously were dirty and so the house came with roaches. It took years and several exterminators for it to be okay. At the worst of it, they usually only came out at night ugh it’s terrible to even think about I’m so sorry you’re going through that
I think we can all unanimously agree that roaches are just ridiculously hard rid of
I am so thankful to live in Canada. Roaches, never! Most I worry about are fruit flies, moths, ants, june bugs and stupid cherry beetles. All easy to get rid of and disappear in the winter. Sweet winter peace.
Now I feel an intense desire to clean my house, at 12am. That show ALWAYS makes me want to clean!
LMAOOOO “the roaches are the landlords”
Watching shows like this makes me thank my mom from being a neat freak
If you tell me she had lice or any bugs in her hair, I’d believe you 100%.
That's a myth. Head lice actually prefer clean hair
@@inmyworldkindagirl And I oop-
I definitely thought of bed bugs though 😷
Actually some hoarders when they go out in public, appear to be very clean. Most likely you wouldn’t be able to tell if someone was hoarding. This is a very sad and serious problem. This is not something to make fun of or make mean comments.
Bed bugs, maybe. Whether you get them has nothing to do with how clean you are. But when a hoarder does get them it's really unlikely they'll be able to get rid of them, since a proper extermination would require the mess to be cleaned up first.
Bed bugs would be more likely to be hiding in the clutter in and around the bed, though, not crawling in her hair. They're too clumsy to crawl around in hair without just falling off when you move around, mostly, and they don't have any reason to go there anyway.
As a college student, I worked as a house cleaner to make partying money. I once was called into a house in North Hollywood like this, except way worse. There were cockroaches everywhere. You can see them crawling on the walls and floor. The renter had just a mattress in the living room, not in his bedroom because the infestation was worse there. I lifted a stack of newspapers in his bathroom and hundreds of baby cockroaches ran out. I left immediately. I still have nightmares.
The cat looks so angry. I would be too living in a house like that. Please rescue the pets!
Cats are quite clean...

Me too and I also watch 600lb life to not over eat. Both these shows keep me in check.
You know, as long as it keeps their mind in check I won't bother anyone doing this about it.
I know this show has taught me to keep the amount of items at home to a minimum. Because when they reach a certain amount, you can't keep track of them anymore and they become useless because you either forget where they are or just, that they exist altogether.
SAME. Even if I didn’t want to clean my house, this show fixed that RIGHT up.
I don't think it's messed up. It's always good to get a reminder of how bad things can be. You solidify the standards at which you want to live. It's a way of checking in on your mental health, too. Of course, it can go to the extreme - like if you watch hoarders and then clean your house with a toothbrush and bleach, or watch 600lb life and go on a starvation diet out of body dysmorphia.
The human brain is a complex and difficult place! 😂

BRUH I-💀💀
Hoarding shows always make me feel soooo energised to clean my house .. it’s an amazing motivator
It's hard to understand at times why people hoard and let themselves live this way. But by watching the British version of this show on YT, I found out that it's a form of sickness that needs to treated.
It’s a condition where those who have experienced loss project that fear onto objects so they’ll collect (fulfilled connection) and then fear throwing them away (loss). It builds and builds if, like you said, it goes untreated 😥
To add to the other person’s reply, the common denominator of hoarders is that they have big trauma/s they experience and that’s when they start hoarding. Usually it’s a loss of a loved one. They try to surround themselves with materials to kind of psychologically fill the void they feel. You know when you feel sad and depressed and you just want to wrap yourself burrito-style in a blanket and cry in your bed all day? It’s like that, but on a bigger, house-scale. It’s really something.
When the mom said “wait that’s brand new” I had to scream this woman 🧍♀️
I wouldn't even step on their block much less go into their house
I love to see the huge smile on the lady’s face when her home is clean and her family helped her. Made me cry.
When that refrigerator was being moved and he loaded it on the hand cart and the roach feces slid off onto him🤢🤮
I feel like this is a prime example of the phrase “a cobbler’s children have no shoes”
Sorry but now I'm curious, what's that mean?
@@wendyshandcrackedeggs6791 It's referring to how the Cobbler makes and repairs shoes all day but when he is done with his work, he neglects to repair or make shoes for himself or his family because that's the last thing he wants to do when his work is over.
I thought that it applied to her because she practices taking care of her clients' emotional needs but she doesn't take care of her own emotional needs and issues when she's at home. This has caused her to use hording to try to remedy the emotional issues that she's dealing with.

This proves two things:
1. No one is immune to psychological disorders. One can be really good at taking care of other people yet be neglectful of him/herself due to unresolved issues which manifests as disorders if not properly addressed.
2. Psychological disorders can be managed if not fully treated. This is through therapy, support from loved ones and insight as seen on the video.

Most psychologists need a psychologist or doctor.
Everyone needs therapy or help every now and then. Just to clear up the stigma.
Alot of helpers in this society tend to forget to look after themselves because their focus is so much on helping others. Also to treat or diagnose oneself you should also get someone to help for support and for second or third opinion.
She needs a therapist and a shit-ton of self-care, hoarding is just the symptom of the problem spilling out, since the house symbolises herself & her being and all the junk in the house is her state of mind and her own issues

I think Hoarders on A&E is the better of the two hoarding shows. It's a little more in depth and they offer aftercare services. I'm not sure if TLC's show does.
I agree! Maybe theyll watch that too
I wonder if they have similar time constraints? I've never seen this one, but on all the episodes of Hoarders on A&E that I have seen, they only have 2-3 days for cleanup.
Hermititis the new season started a couple weeks ago. It seems like there’s more like 5 days to a week now.
They do. Isnt it the same show, just switched channels
I remember being severely depressed a few years ago. My room looked kind of similar to this (smaller scale though, no roaches and stuff just rotting foods and trash), and it didn't really phase me at that time because I just stopped caring about everything. I saw no point in doing things because I was in a habit of convincing myself that everything was pointless.
I think the thing that pulled me out of that mindset was finally finding what I wanted to do with my life, and then subsequently coming to the realisation through logic that I won't be able to live that way with that mindset. From there I began gradually shifting myself back to some sort of "normal" through firstly cleaning my room from as much clutter as I could (still some extra things in there because of lack of space elsewhere, but getting rid of those things soon), and then setting myself a daily schedule and forcing myself to complete it.
It's really difficult to get out of situations like this when you're already deep in them, because you're forced to give up what you've become familiar with entirely if you want to turn things around, and it's tough to do so because at the same time your living environment becomes your primary source of comfort and sometimes the only thing you're familiar with. Depending on how long you've been in this situation, and how severe your situation, you also may have to re-teach yourself basically everything in terms of self care, control etc. It's embarrassing to admit that you have a problem that's this bad, but at the same time it's completely necessary to acknowledge otherwise a full recovery isn't possible.
In my case, therapy wasn't an option, it actually just made my depression worse because the therapist was only there for the money, so I stopped going and had to go through this battle myself.
Luckily I managed to beat my own depression, I still get mild cases occasionally due to another condition I'm currently in the middle of dealing with, but the furthest it gets is a plate of food left out overnight or something nowadays.
I'm very grateful for TV shows like hoarders that show the impacts that such conditions can have on those suffering and also others around them. Even though it shows these struggles publicly, and these struggles are more on the long-term severe end of the spectrum most of the time, it's one of those conversations that needs to be had but people find it difficult to talk about. Shows like these help to demonstrate to people that misinterpret conditions or don't really understand what the reality is like to suffer from them that it's a debilitating illness, not some sort of aesthetic or personality quirk..

OH... I miss yum...
엘피디LPD next time you see her you should vlog or something! i would love to see that!
I like your profile picture. Poppy is cool
3:09 all I could think of was an episode of Hoarders where a lady had so much garbage layered on top of her floor, that when people came to peel away the layers, they found multiple flattened cat carcasses
NO WAY WHAT
These poor animals im going to cry
My cat oh-so-slightly touched my leg while I was watching this and I freaked out because I thought it was a roach. 😅
Watching this makes me want to tidy up
really interesting that she is a psychologist who treats addiction... definitely a "Do as I say, not do as I do" scenario with her... I recall the first time I'd ever heard of hoarding was on an Oprah show a long time ago and similar situation where a lady (with 3 dogs) not only was reluctant to throw things away, but didn't even clean up after her dogs, and the poop was everywhere... the show paid for professional cleaners to redo her place (and you could see the lady had problems throwing stuff away, as everything meant something to her)... and when they revisited her some time later, she was slipping back into her old habits, and that's when they had her see a psych and she was diagnosed as a hoarder.... can't recall if she ever totally recovered or not.... it was disgusting.....
Me: drops one thing in my room
What my mom sees:
Lol, as a mom I'm sorry. It's not dropping one thing that infuriates me. It's when they don't pick it up!!
Okay, why tf is LPD so beautiful. I tryed to watch the hoarders but could not keep my eyes away from her. I love her style. She looks like a ball of sunshine. So cute🥰
For real! She is absolutely stunning!!!
Dang zoey's look is 🔥🔥🔥
Theres a lot of people in mental health care who are battling their own mental illnesses. You can help those you can relate to but that doesnt mean you can be your own saviour. I hope she get a good doctor who doesnt judge her and she continues getting help.
There is a Korean show where they clean homes and there are some nasty ones. A lot of takeout rubbish.
I JUST commented this! Lol. Clean Avengers are awesome guys!
@@ChiZillaaa that show freaks me out! The food rubbish and dirty dishes just makes me cringe! There was one with a clogged toilet. So don't understand!
@@cherylmedeiros6287 I saw one (UK version of hoarders) where the bathroom was inaccessible - so he peed in the sink and went to the pub to poop. Another one had the boiler broken, so she had washed herself in cold water for years because a repairman couldn't get to the boiler D: I keep thinking nothing can shock me, and then I get even more shocked lol (like a woman who had her entire hallway covered in kitty litter because she never threw it out, just poured more on top)
@@Tanjaaraus ok sometimes I barely make it to the next room to pop let alone somewhere else. I'm sure the pub isn't 24 hrs. And peeing in the sink and cat litter in the hallway? How does the health hi department not get involved.
@@cherylmedeiros6287 If it's private homes I don't think the health department can do anything? I guess someone could decide to condemn a building, but that is more if there is a huge structural fault or fire-risk. And yeah, he was this little old man too, so I don't know how he did it either! All I know is that I want to clean and keep a minimalist style after I watch an episode lol
I appreciate the people who try to get better. I remember this one dude who lived alone and instead of getting mad and telling people to not throw his stuff away, he let them do their thing. They cleaned up the house and he got a new house. I think he’s much happier now.
YOUR MAKEUP LOOOKS SOOOO GOOOD!
My psych prof told my class that every good psychologist should also have their own psychologist.
Oh hell naw I would’ve been whipped for leaving one cup in my room
You look so good with and without makeup .... butttt Dammm gurlll you look so good with this makeup

Me too sis 😤 especially with the roaches, now I'm paranoid that theres a roach somewhere in my room 😖
There is one episode of UK hoarders I think, where a narrow hallway is just feet upon feet of solid kitty litter. Because she didn't empty the litter boxes, just poured more on top, and then the sand went outside the litter boxes and she just kept pouring - so it was a mountain of litter with years worth of cat pee and poop in it. It was sooo satisfying to watch her apartment get nice(r) again! I really hope she kept at it for the cat's sake
Zoey, helping her friend expand her fanbase, is as selfless as always. 😊 ...and Mini Vom 🤣 I am going to use that in a sentence at my earliest convenience 🤣
I always feel like in these cases it’s best to take out anything clean and can be salvaged and just knock the house down and start over
I’ve never understand why having a lot of stuff had to mean things weren’t kept clean at least? (specifically, in regards to hoarding)
That's kind of what hoarding is. It's never really organized.
It's because their minds and emotions are a mess...
Yah, like why couldn't the son clean the toilet and sink at least if he didn't like those conditions?
Erika Mononoke ok, but organized is different than clean, you know?
Total guess but I’m thinking part of the hoarding extends to old/rotten food which attracts a TON of roaches then it’s just too overwhelming to clean all the time and, like the son said, they just give up
I love how all your videos are wholesome. Even this one started wholesome but then BOOM. ROACHES. and all wholesomeness stopped XD I couldn't. Roaches are where the line gets drawn
It's novel of them to attempt to clean that but they need to burn that house down... roaches are hard to get rid of.
I also love that Zoey and Lpd judge the situation more than the person.
“STOP ZOOMING IN ON THOSE ROACHES!” If this isn’t me💀💀🤚🏾
10:03 WTF? Was that an albino roach!? tf
I had one in my house a few months ago! I was so fascinated I let it live for another 5 minutes before killing it. I didn’t know they existed
albino roach? I think they are fresh born. idk. seen a number of them in my day
it had just molted (shed its exoskeleton). while it is white it is soft and its new skin will slowly turn darker and harden.
No 🤦🏻♀️
My grandma had a medium case of hoarding (I couldn’t go upstairs in their house for almost 20 years because it got so full), my dad has a mild case, and honestly sometimes I feel like I get a bit of it sometimes too. The executive functioning messes up and I’m sitting here going “JUST. SWEEP. THE FLOOR. JUST. DO IT!!!” and I can’t. And once the clutter starts it’s hard to stop and it just gets more and more depressing. I don’t have that much stuff (except craft supplies and books lol but I feel like a little bit of accumulation there is normal haha) so it can never get that bad, but it’s still rough.
Anyway, I get grossed out easily so I’ve never watched this show, but it’s sobering to see. Hope I never get that bad!
Mostly Westreners do Hoarding because they have a bigger house as compaired to a person but in asia we have smaller homes so management is easy.
