[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of you guys are acting super harsh towards someone who wants to help their spouse. OCD does not prevent you from having children and is not "mentally ill". A whole lot of ableism on here.[/quote]

OP doesn’t want to help his spouse, though.  He wants her to change her behavior so that it no longer annoys him.[/quote]

Hoarding, preventing him from tidying up, reckless violence, and anger issues, which he says is just SOME of the behavior she exhibits isn't only mildly annoying to him but very dangerous for herself.[/quote]

You either lack reading comprehension or you’re an insufferable liar.  Not wanting to throw out all of her possessions that OP has decided she doesn’t need isn’t hoarding.  Not wanting OP to throw out her stuff behind her back isn’t preventing him from tidying up.  And her anger issues clearly stem from being nagged and criticized constantly.  That would make anyone mad.  Nothing OP listed is dangerous for anyone involved, get a freaking grip.

You can call slamming doors violence if you want to, it certainly fits your penchant for hyperbole.[/quote]

Okay, so what's your point? You don't know the full context and the few things that stuck out to him that he mentioned don't tell the full story. Storing old papers from high school and all types of documents that take up multiple rooms is definitely abnormal hoarding. He most likely is not throwing things out but just rearranging things differently makes her uncomfortable which is unhealthy. Destroying and breaking objects is dangerous. She literally has a diagnosis that explains these behaviors which she needs treatment for so not sure how I'm a liar.[/quote]
