As a former home health aide seeing the pained thanks in a hoarder's face for not judging them or pitying them will forever stay with me. There's such a dehuminization towards mental illness, especially hoarders. Its not a moral failure on the individual. Its a moral failure on society for abandoning then shaming them
My mom recently passed away. We went into the home we grew up in for the first time in 20 years (We live in different towns and when we did visit our home town she would make sure she met us away from home). When we went in, this was what we found. I can only imagine her the deep mental pain she was going through. Mom, I love and miss you.
I really love how you understand this is a mental and physical health issue, and not just laziness. And I especially appreciate how you understand and don't care that it very well could go back to the same state as before! That's one reason why it's so hard to accept help, because it almost always comes with so many conditions and judgements. This is an act of pure love that so many people need right now ❤❤ you're doing so much good in this world
The fact that someone could think this is a result of laziness is wild to me. Who would choose to live like that just to not spend energy that they actually have? It is so obviously a mental/physical health issue; every thriving person could be one life catastrophe away from the same situation. Thank God there are people who care and offer help.
I can’t imagine the relief she must have felt to finally have a clean space for her and her dog(s). You are an absolute Angel, and you deserve every blessing! Thank you for all you do and for sharing it with us. ❤🥺✨
You are so INCREDIBLE and thank you for doing the cleaning you do and for showing that no one knows what's going on in your life if you don't let them in.
I remember coming home from vacation and our house being clean... It was... I cried... I'm tearing up now. I'm so thankful for you and your loving soul
I, too, spiraled quite a bit after losing my dad when I was 15. I couldn’t be bothered to get out of bed. Had panic attacks almost every day. Didn’t eat for several days straight. And I’m still spiraling. Even now, at almost 20 years old, I’m still struggling severely. So I totally understand. And I wish more people would understand, too. Or at least empathize a bit.
This will NEVER be wasted time on your part!!! Whoever could say that has no compassion. Everyone needs help and a second chance at one point in life, and if you don't consider yourself blessed. Thank you for being a blessing to this world ❤🥰🤩
its amazing how often people take being raised by cleanly people for granted. if this was the condition she was used to her Entire Life, and her mother passed before ever being able to get help or learn to clean- where would she learn?? where would she get a fresh start as a good jumping off point for learning on her own, for the first time in her LIFE???
Exactly. Cleaning isn't an intuitive thing. Pretty much everything humans know is a learned skill and if that skill is something you're 'just supposed to know', I really think that impacts when and if people seek help.
I love the zero judgment from this women and how she really genuinely feels for and cares for the person she’s helping every though she doesn’t know them on a personal level ❤
Great job! Not only did you help this girl but you also probably saved that poor dog's life. Good knows what he could have been eating, living with all this trash and dead bugs. I really hope is healthy.
All I can say is you are a beautiful human ❤. Everyone could take a page from your book of life and implement it into their life 💯. I love that you do this for people who need help and love so much ❤️. You are just an amazing human . Sending you and your client prayers and love 🙏 ❤. I hope this is a brand new start for her ❤.
Oh, the poor Lady! 😢 I guess, when you live this way for years, you don't even notice it anymore, it's a kind of resignation... I wish all the best for this young lady and for her cleaning angel! ❤❤
You're a freaking goddess. These people are so lucky to have you. I know everyone says this, but I really wish you could help me start over as well. You're the best❤
Thank you for being a saving grace to so many people. You are an advocate for people who struggle with mental health. Thank you from the bottom of my heart 🩵
