[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP above, forgot to add: Since your parent suffered from hoarding syndrome, I don't see a solution to your marital issues without therapy. [b]Parents with severe mental illness, like your mother, do a great job of skewing their children's sense of normal[/b]--and since you're showing signs of the same syndrome, and, importantly, you can see that you're showing signs of the same syndrome, act now. Divorce is a lot more expensive then therapy.[/quote] This. You're only thinking of the most extreme cases of hoarding. And since its not that bad, you think it's okay. Obviously, no one can see into your home but the level of the clutter, you're describing is excessive and possibly on the mild end of the hoarder scale. So definitely therapy for you, possibly a regular cleaning service, and your dh should definitely also be doing his part. For example, if having laundry sit on the sofa all week really bothers him, he can be responsible for doing the laundry and putting it away. [/quote] In theory, DH could help. But i would find that level of mess overwhelming and wouldn't be able to address it any of it. I think that's why her DH is not helping. [/quote]
