[quote=Anonymous]Hoarding is one of the most difficult disorders to treat. What is scary is that it can progress very quickly to an unimaginable state. Hoarders end up going bankrupt, being evicted, dying in a fire when ems can’t get into the house, dying years earlier due to respiratory or other diseases from bad hygiene. It’s a horrible disease and horrible death. Previous posters are correct that you can’t just get her to stop with a hint or conversation. You could try finding a family therapist that works with OCD and hoarding disorders. Talk with her adult children. The therapist may be able to guide you or participate in an intervention. She will need to work with a therapist to start addressing that she is a hoarder, get professional help to get rid of her hoard, and stay in therapy to keep it from accumulating again.[/quote]
