[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also she’s an incredible hoarder.  I mean I’m sentimental and keep some random stuff but we have MOUNTAINS of things we will never use.  We keep everything because “someday” we might need it or she might want to return to it.  Furniture, fabric, supplies, crafts from years and years ago, old toys, mountains of clothes, etc.  House is a cluttered mess and I’m numb to it.

I wish I could afford a therapist. [/quote]

Op, you developed “clutter blindness.”  Your wife may have experienced trauma and or has untreated ocd.  If she truly is a hoarder, it is very difficult to change and confrontation is the worst thing you can do.

At this point, you wouldn’t be able to donate anything because of the virus.

Focus on what you can control, talk to your wife and step kids about trying to institute some routine during this stressful time like putting a chore chart on the fridge of who does what when.  If there are beliefs you share as Christians, maybe suggest praying as a family.

Please call the nami helpline because you need someone to talk to.

We are all imperfect, and this health crisis is bringing a come to Jesus moment for you.  You feel alone but you’re not.  [/quote]
