Hoarders: Meet Jake and Shirley

Meet Jake and Shirley... While most 21 olds see a world of possibility
in front of them, Jake wakes up every morning despondent at the state of
his life--a prisoner to his hoarding and OCD. Jake compulsively hoards
garbage. Shirley has always been the kind of person who could never
turn away a stray cat. But eventually she lost track of just how many
cats she had. When her situation caught the attention of the local
authorities, they discovered that every room of her home is cluttered
and cat feces and urine soak the carpets and furniture. Now Shirley must
cooperate and allow authorities to remove over 75 living and dead cats
from her home or face criminal prosecution for animal cruelty. http://www.aetv.com/hoarders

My mom hoards. I've tried dumping her stuff out. It doesn't work. It's pretty frustrating, I get pissed off at her a lot. But, it is a mental illness. Gotta de-clutter her mind first, before her room.

@ghostsintheforum You just proved you dont have the same mental condition as these people, these people dont have self control, that is part of their mental disorder.

Co-dependanvy with a drunk can leave many living situations unbearable. Jake is only an example of that. I had rats living with us because of the control issues in the house. And, this was a nice house. Hard to judge these people really.

My parents are hoarders too. They hoard nice stuff though but there's no place in the house for "display" items any more. I don't care if it's designed by some dude named Le Corbusier or Picasso.

Hoarding isn't all ilness, it's just laziness and stupidity. These people are fucking morons.

I love how she says she has "20 to 25" animals. LMFAO! If you love them, wouldn't you know how many there are?! ha!
