That first one made me cry. The neighbor of that old woman is so awesome! So are the people who pitched in and helped.
no. no it didn't.

Go Lucy!❤

Breaks my heart for the depressed people. I have been there, and sometimes... You just don't want to care anymore, then you get overwhelmed, tired and just... Don't want to even breathe sometimes. 😔 Anyone who sees this, and feels that way. You aren't alone..
I just posted a comment detailing my experience and you're right. You try to do something about it and get overwhelmed and burnt out. Then you feel bad about it and instead of listening and understanding your struggles, people make fun of you, call you a bunch of names and say a bunch of things that aren't true. The people who actually care and want to help become overwhelmed and freaked out and don't understand, and they leave.
@@thomasbermea347 so true. When you are broken and open up to people, finally, they get overwhelmed and don't want to deal with it. They think it's an excuse. They think it's as easy as A B C. It's not. And when we aren't able to meet the standards they set immediately they are quick to quit. They think we don't care. Problem is, we got where we are by caring too much. This world is the hardest on the most sensitive souls. I hurt for people I don't even know, because, as you know, when you've been broken and beaten down, it's not as easy as people make it seem. 😣
Oh bull shit. Its lazy pigs. I have severe mental issues and my home not a nasty pig sty. Lazy pigs are nothing to do with depression
The first one was a heartwrencher. Thank God for Lucy. That sweet old lady was so fortunate that she locked herself out.
She didn't lock herself out. The flies did.
@@siggyretburns7523 Oh.
When you have them not helping clean most of there life they believe that is not there responsibility..
These old people who live like this is because they were used to having there mom clean up after them or got their pet friends they use a slave or their mentally ill family member .
Just because they old doesn't mean they were good people ..
You old and living like that ? You were use to having a laid back job where you spent most of your time in a clean building while someone cleaned your house , or you never cleaned it and just pick up and relocate,
Just like rich people do with there furniture, where if it has a stain on it or something and don't want to clean it or hire a nosey maid to they throw it out or sell it to a company that buys used furniture and have someone else clean it.
They even do that with their walls and carpet. Just paint over it or rip up the carpet and put another one down wasting resources
I'm 64, and through anxiety, depression and a back problem I'd sunk into a life like this. Luckily, I found a woman that has gutted my house, and now it's clean again. It's hard sometimes. I've just gone through Christmas without seeing a soul. I have family. But no one came. I've worked for nearly 50 years and have ended up a worn out husk.
❤
Sorry to hear that may god bless you and may you have a amazing life
I would have came bearing gifts!
Very sad situation... 🥺 God bless you...
I'm so sorry. Would love to give you a hug.
My cousin is a hoarder. Her house in Texas ended up being condemned and torn down. Ever seen mouse sized cockroaches?! Yup she had them!
Maybe they were what's known in FL as "Palmetto bugs" which are similar to what we call up North water bugs. Yeah they're big but mouse sized?
@@413smr well u know what they say, "everything's bigger in Texas"
Tasty
My cousin’s wife is a hoarder too. My cousin tried everything to get rid of as much as she can.
THE FUCK?!?!
I love Lucy. What a wonderful person she is. I'm not ashamed to say that the humanity of the story made me cry. Bless you, Lucy.
This not only makes me want to deep clean my room, it also makes me feel grateful that I even can. Every one has struggles in life that the rest of us know nothing about.
After experiencing it myself, I believe the reason for anyone not keeping their space nice is due to some aspect of life being off. Maybe illness, physical or otherwise, always a reason. A healthy person wants to have things clean and doing something productive every day. The outside stuff is just a reflection of the inner life.
Yes laziness and pigs
My sisters and I grew up in a house with my mother like these until my dad took custody of 2 of us in our teens. My dad never fully believed our stories until about 5-7 years later. Mom and youngest sister came to stay with us for a month and he got to actually see her in action. By the time they left, the bedroom with attached bath they stayed in was absolutely disgusting. My dad actually apologized to us for not believing us. My heart goes out to those kids who have to live like this because of their parents choices. Yes most of this is mental illness, but knowing you have a problem and not doing anything about it, is a choice.
Well said!
Bless your dad, and sticking by him.
Facts
Lucy is a real life angel
I think hoarding is genuinely one of the more fascinating mental illnesses. Something most people wouldn't think twice about, throwing things away, and yet its like climbing a mountain for these people. Its tragic when the sickness has taken such a hold over a person that they can't recover.
That's true
Some people have called me a boarder-line hoarder. I become physically and mentally attached, either to the object, the value of the object, or if it is a gift, i become attached to the thought that was put in and have the hardest time getting rid of it, even if i don't/cant use it. Such as pajamas I got from an aunt that usually didn't even usually acknowledge me, the top made me so incredibly itchy, but I would wear it when she was around just to show her (in my own way) I loved and appreciated her and the thought she put into my gifts. She never got friendlier towards me unfortunately..
@@secretdoll92831 i know wjat you mean. I do the same thing. I had pjs from an aunt that i never wore but had a hard time getting rid od them becauae they were a gift.
@@secretdoll92831 Aw.🙁
Ok, seriously, imagine walking into your bedroom and finding a skeleton in ur bed! 🤢 😱 😨
Eh,sounds like a Monday 🙂 \_("✓)_/
the first story is so heartwarming. Going as far as to help give the old lady a bath and a good pampering session proberly did more for her mental health than redoing the house did. Even though she died shorted after I'm glad those last few years were spent knowing she was loved.
Here in Sweden the ”bud light”house would have been a goldmine if the cans would have been domestic. You get around a dollar per every ten cans
Lucy is such a sweet and compassionate person ❤❤❤ Rarely do people go through so much trouble to help people 😢😢😢 If only the world had more people like her 😊😊😊
"If only the world had more people like her"
Or better, let's be like her
That’s too hard, bet 1,000,000,000$ that it nobody watching actually became a Lucy II.
My cousin was a hoarder and died on her pile at 80 and my mom and cousin's daughter went and cleaned up the house..
and oh man I feel for that old woman and God bless miss Lucy and her heart for helping that sweet old dear and it's stories like this I enjoy hearing instead of the usual depressing crap you see on the internet
I used to help my mom rent mobile homes. In October of 2020, a 600 lb lady and her three kids lived in our trialer park. We rented to her because we trusted a friend. FYI, NEVER do that! Her boyfriend died a year before and caused her mental health to go downhill. He died in that trailer and she didn't call anybody to help her get him out of the house. He sat there for 2 weeks before her neighbor friend helped get him out and cremated. The body made a mess and she never cleaned it up. The kids had to see that! Even before all that, she was not a clean person. Then she stopped paying rent during the pandemic. She was living with her parents in the next town with the kids, while she said she still lived in the mobile home. She even claimed that she had renter rights and couldn't pay because of COVID. That was true so it made it impossible to evict her. Court was delayed by 6-8 months because the judges kept getting sick or dying from COVID. Finally after a year we were able to get the mobile home back. When my dad walked in, he gagged sooo bad. He never does that! My mom was appalled. The next week, we gathered all the cleaning supplies we needed, trash bags, and full body paint suits to act as a hazmat suit, shoe coverings, and crawled in there and cleaned up the place.
There was trash up to your knees, rotten groceries in the kitchen on the floor, trash in the freezer, mice and roaches everywhere, bodily fluids on every bed sheet scattered throughout the house and so much more. The mattresses were covered in pee and period blood. The children wet the bed every night and the all slept in the same bed because of the trash. The wet laundry on the floor was next to the back door which was leaking and she never told us about it. It made the clothes to stick and melt to the floor along with the dyes that stained the floor. Both toilets overflowed and caved into the particle board of the trialer. Her 600lbs butt broke both toilets. I think they resorted to peeing in the vent ducts on the floor. There was a hole poked in the bottom of one 🤮. WORST OF ALL.... we walked in there and her boyfriends ashes were still on the kitchen table!! Who does that!! She abandoned everything including his ashes! We returned them to his family. They were so thankful.
In the end it took a team of 3 people (I was one of them) a month to clean it, two dumpsters and 4 truck bed loads later. It was awful. I can't even do my dishes without being grossed out!
One child was giving custody to a family friend and the other 2 to their grandparents. The mom was living with her parents for a while, but I think the mom is now living in a homeless shelter an hour away from that trailer park. But that was a year ago idk where she is now. I just hope the kids are in a better place then that.
If you made it this far, thanks for reading it! ❤️
I feel for you. Why would a person treat those kids that way? I know people that had their kids taken away from them because they had their water bill cut off but kids were clean and house was spotless. They also had the money coming in two days to get their water turned on. Friends gave them gallons of water to drink, kids took baths at friends and so on. Yet the dhs workers let those kids go to their father who admitted murdering someone to the cops but no body. Yet dhs wasn’t called on that woman who left those kids stay in that filth and death. Teachers and neighbors had to have smelt that. And that female I told you about has a clean three bedroom, payed for house and car and dhs gives those kids back to a admitted to murder father.
Wow! Thank you to help to your parents, you are an angel on Earth... 🙏🏻 God bless you!
That is what nightmares are made of
OMG that must have been horrid, especially being a little place, I lived in a mobile home for many years and it was so easy to keep clean, i know she was a big lady but surely she could have gotten help for being disabled.
Oh my. That is one shocking story! I feel bad for the son.🙁 God bless him.🙏 I hope the mom is doing well, now.
Was I the only one who picked up that the mysterious hoarder literally gathered their newspapers in meticulous order. The piles were perfectly counted out lined up evenly and tied every time how odd they lived in such filth but when it came to putting those newspapers together there wasn't a paper out of place.
Shades of OCD?Note: I am not MH professional.
@@elizabethsohler6516 well I wouldn't consider myself a mental health professional but I am a family therapist and actually I think you might have hit the nail on the head. That's the only thing that would explain that type of behavior. People with OCD can be completely out of control in all areas but their illness focuses on one thing. Now that I think about it this person probably could live in that field as long as they kept the newspapers in place. So very sad. We all know what it's like to have a sink full of dishes and have it drive us crazy until we take care of it I can't imagine living like that.
@@elizabethsohler6516 Hoarding disorder is typically a subtype of ocd :) Theyre closely related! The stereotypes of OCD are mostly wrong. Its as simple as "obsessions" and different "compulsions" and that can look different for everyone with the illness
@@sageeule Thanks for the education.
A personal story:
This one hits pretty hard. I've helped to care for my elderly parents with health problems, my mom never threw anything away, always kept everything and my dad's a junker. His friends and neighbors always give him everything when they move or get rid of things. He never says no, and always says "someone can use it, better than throwing it away", and while he HAS been able to help people with some things people gave him, with his health problems, it became overwhelming for him.
Between my parents' health issues and trying to not let my parents' clutter take over to the point of becoming like one of those houses, I've sacrificed a huge chunk of my life and haven't taken care of myself physically or mentally so it dragged me into depression, so it's an ongoing battle between me, the house and my mental health.
As long as I'm trying, I keep thinking "small wins are still wins". People don't understand and make fun of us sometimes, some even laughing and saying it's a "crack house", which yes is offensive and hurts, but ignorant people who have no interest in understanding will say anything to make fun of others. Compassion is what's needed and being willing to listen and understand what people are going through instead of calling people names or speculating.
I wish I could give you the biggest hug…thank you❤ you are doing for your parents what they cannot do for themselves. You are doing your best, but you have to take care of you. Please take a much needed self care moment. You cannot pour from an empty cup😊 God bless you and your parents 🫶🏾

I owned a cleaning business years ago and we often got calls from relatives asking for us to clean a "hoarding" situation. After doing alot of these clean ups, and talking to the actual resident of the home, sometimes you realize they are actually addicted to certain behaviours (like urinating in bottles or defacating in bowls, pans,drawers..anything other than a toilet). Much of it is caused by trauma. Its very sad 😔
The guy that had thousands of rats ( 14:15 ) was actually on a hoarders episode ( if I’m not mistaken).
He started off with just 2 after his wife passed away and they just kept breeding and he couldn’t bring himself to let them go. It was a great story and I definitely recommend watching.
IIRC he got murdered in a burglary gone wrong.
@@Volundur9567 yep, in 2015 and still unsolved
Watching rats?(I rather not). I see them get crushed by cats and dogs in NY 🗽
WHEN YOU LOOAE A SPOUSE THINGS CAN FALL APART QUICK
I'd love to be covered in a pile of rats.....pet rats, not wild, lol
Amazed: “Wait, is that the floor? At this rate, his room will be tidied by the time he’s 40!”
HAD ME DYING 😂😂😂
I confess to being a borderline hoarder. I didn't have lots of actual rubbish lying around, but just lots of stuff. I lost my husband in 2019, struggled during the pandemic (living alone, but having to work in person) and I slipped down the stairs over some books and broke my ankle -- it snapped like a twig and my foot was at right angles to my leg.
My mum owns the house and she went ballistic :D. My friends really helped, but as well as having a baaaad injury (I still walk with a stick 21 months on) I got well and truly busted on the house.
I'm autistic and dyspraxic. The fatigue of working during covid was enough to push me over the edge, and of course lockdown during the winter was pretty bleak.
I can't begin to express my gratitude to my friends and my mum, who turned 70 in 2020. I got a large life insurance payment from my husband and that has helped pay for therapy.
If you're in this situation: GET HELP. Yes, it can feel shameful. Yes, it might hurt to go through it. But you come out the other side and you feel better with more space.
(Big useful tip: get a powdered active charcoal toilet cleaner. It makes so much difference in ten minutes.)
Animals and kids suffer at the hands of people enough. Don't make it worse. I'd love a cat or dog but I still struggle with my own health, so it would be a bad idea.
True

This so sad, This is what happens when people are ignored by authority and get no help. Im sure the dear lady wanted to live like this. God bless the neighbour and all the people who helped.

$$$$ for cans in AZ too
This gives you a reason to clean and help someone out
My grandmother hoarded cats. Her house was horrible. My aunts did what they could. When she died, the house was torn down.
Auri is amazing. ❤️ Watching her clean super dirty houses is so satisfying, too.
So I live in an apartment building for mostly 55+ (long story, im a few decades younger than that though). We get random inspections every so often.
I help out my friends and acquaintances to keep a lot of their places clean, as a lot of folks have trouble cleaning in advanced age.
Made a lot of cool friends here, and a lot of them have made me food and stuff for the help! 💪🖤
A few years ago I tried to clean a hoarder's house. I got the kitchen, one bedroom, and the living room. Even the backyard was a mess, but the worst was the garage. It was packed with all of his parents stuff, and then his own overflow of more than sixty years. It was a solid mess that you couldn't even pull much out. Eventually, no matter how slowly I went, he couldn't handle anymore cleaning. I was meant to return but he kept gambling and lost the house. Last time I was in the neighborhood it looked so nice i was depressed! He was a nice man, but he had major mental problems we were unable to address. I hope his doggie was okay 😢
Lucy and the other's who helped that old lady are fantastic people who deserve more people to know about their kindness 😇
They did God's work. Sadly hoarders don't always respond well to intervention.
The second house I watch on horders and this video doesn't even scratch the surface of how bad it actually was which is saying a lot considering the amount of diapers in the bathroom it got a lot worse through the whole house it was insane
Really felt pain for the blind old lady who had the skeleton of her son, still thinking he was alive. Knowing the truth must have destroyed her. Poor woman, I hope she's doing better now and have people around to help her and keep her company 🤧😔
The first story is so wholesome. I’ve always wanted to adopt a grandparent. Lucy is an angel.
we can all learn a lot from people like Lucy 🥹
Yes. You said it.😊
@@BeAmazed remember that ADVENTUROUS TELEPORTATION CRAP?
@BeAmazed It's sad that , that elderly lady's family abandoned her due to her mental health problems 😪💔 . Yes , unfortunately I was eating while watching this video & regret VERY minute of doing so . 🤢🤮 🇸🇯🇦🇺
I'm a minimalist and a single mother living in CA. Been working so hard so I can retire at 50 if things keep going well for me. Bought my first condo this month and I can't be more proud than I am right now. I'm so glad I made good decisions about my finances that changed me forever.
Hey, I’m super proud of you. I wish you can take your time to give me a little guide on how to fix my finances. I’m in a mess right now and any tip from you would really go a long way.
Hey sweetie. Apparently, I used the FIRE movement to put my finances in shape. You can research more about it. Then, lnvested in stocks, crypto-currencies and real estates crowdfunding through the assistance of an lnvestment pro I was able to achieve a lot.
That’s really nice, I would make my research like you said. Also, I would love to connect with you financial consultant. Hope you don’t mind?
Ok. His name is Robert Michael. He has been very influential in my financial journey. You can look up for *growingwithrobert* to connect with Robert.
Thanks so much. I wish you all the best and may God keep favouring you. Amen.
I'm on the border of being a hoarder (pun actually not intended), my problems are - to name a few - that I'm severely depressed, a recovering alcoholic, and *I actually can't stand how icky it is*.
In other words; people doesn't want to live like that, it's just a downward spiral, until one just don't give a crap anymore; what's another little thing going to do to all the clutter? Etc.
When I have been away from home and come back, I simply can't believe how it looks, even if it right now is pretty okay.
Please don't hate on those people!
Everyone has a back story.
Same here. I am making slow attempts to "purge" ( get rid of all things I don't use) it feels so good when I do.
Giving away the clutter, makes me feel a bit of ambition.
To me, my house is trashed, but to others, doesnt look even close to what these other peoples homes.
I have 9 cats, and take care of 2 more that live in the shed.
And a dog, but they are all healthy, well fed, and happy.
Lol no I don't hoard animals .
I haven't vacuumed in what seems like forever., there is dust everywhere, but my bathroom and kitchen are clean.
I take it one day at a time.
When I feel good, I clean, just as much as I can bare.
Then remove some clutter. So I can clean some more.
Being alone, and disabled makes it a task and a half.
I gotta disagree with you, there are those who think living in filth is perfectly ok with it and are not ashamed or embarrassed to have people visit. For the most part you may be right, but there are more of those people who'd make you think twice than you realize
I feel for you. I was severely depressed for years and a kind of hoarder too. Just opening a box to try and get rid of something triggered anxiety crises.
I suppose these objects were the only stable things in a life that was spiralling down.
I hated that mess, just like you.
The Mary Kondo method worked for me, except I had to do it very slowly, month after month. It took about a year to empty my tiny appartment, another year to arrange it while still throwing things out.
I don’t cling to things anymore. I feel happy now when I throw away broken items. I only buy a few things now, and only things I like.
My next step will be to finish organising and decorating. I did some today and it’s not even stressful anymore.
I’m confident you will find a way that works for you too. It’s going to take some time, just like healing from depression, but you’ll eventually succeed.
Same here. I know the house is messy, and I hate it. But I have Severe Anxiety & Depression, in addition to physical issues with my back, knees, and left shoulder. I desperately want to have a clean house, but at the same time it's so hard to have the mental drive and physical ability to do so.
There's a huge difference between actual hoarders who 'collect' everything in sight and think there is nothing wrong with how bad their homes are (who almost always have undiagnosed and/or untreated mental disorders) and those who have physical disabilities and/or depression who know it's bad, want to do something about it, but just can't do so on their own without help.
Even so, my house could be called clean compared to the ones on this video. That people can get to such a bad state without anyone else noticing and able to help them out is horrifying.
Yes.
I adopted a cat from a cat hoarding situation. Over 100 alive, and who knows how many dead. She was so skinny and shy.she has blossomed into her full personality. Hoarding is a mental illness. They don't actually realize they are hoarders. I can't imagine the situation or squalor that my cat lived in. She is so happy now, full of personality and full of life. There is help for hoarders. Unfortunately, a bit of tough love helps them understand the severity of the situation. I have empathy for those unable to cope with a past trauma that often leads to hoarding. I wish only for them to get the help they need and help for the animals as well.
I think the best thing about this video Be Amazed is that you said that hoarding is a mental health problem, sometimes people don't understand that 😕 This was a fantastic video in that you also featured those who help too 💖 My father was a bit of a hoarder, several rooms in his place were very bad and the same with the sheds. He did however hoard cleaning items too, over thirty packs of floor wipes when he'd never cleaned the floor in his life. Our relationship was incredibly toxic and I was too ill anyway to try help by the end, I have carers myself but we still tried again after the OT asked us. I've been catching Hoarders on CZcams and it's been an incredible insight, more and more behaviours often found with hoarders now made sense. I also realise that he had multiple different things he would hoard, plastic boxes! Then more boxes to store the boxes. So many multiples of the same items. Then I got locked out by the Executor and that was that. I do the opposite myself, I extreme sort, file and tidy or paint stuff, that's my coping mechanism. At least I know where everything is 🤣
The problem I have with this video is that, yes, he does say that hoarding is a mental health problem. Because of that, these people shouldn't be shamed, it's not going to help. Yet the rest of the video is full of gifs of disgustedness, and virtually no more compassion.
Yes
I dated a woman once, who I thought seemed to have the characteristics of a hoarder, but nothing like this. I don't think her place was anything like a hygienic hazard, the bathroom was cluttered, but not full of shit or mold everywhere. But her room was so piled with crap that she essentially carved trails from door to bed to closet. It was bad though. I dated another woman, some ten years later, who had a similar but lesser problem. Lots of crap everywhere, furniture you couldn't sit on from piles of stuff, but also not so bad that I would've called it unsafe unless a fire broke out or whatever. I tried to help the latter with it. I was happy to, I loved her and I was more than glad to clean with her. But she had gotten overwhelmed; and psychology was definitely part of it. I remember we cleared out a big portion of her living room, I thought it would be happy for us, but she had a huge panic attack and self-defeating spell. I feel for anyone who suffers in a way that these things get out of control. I don't believe laziness or indifference is the problem. It's deeper than that.
as someone who lives in germany, having that many soda cans would make me rich.
ps:
shoutout to people like lucy and aurikatarina who do amazing jobs for suffering people!
Lucy is a lovely lady. I can relate to the woman with depression and the sliding slope of neglecting yourself and the home. Thankfully, I got help after a few months so my flat was untidy but thankfully not filthy. I was hoarding newspapers. Looking back at that time, I'm still amazed. I still have depression but it's better now and while not an obsessive cleaner, my home looks nice.
As a former rent a center employee I can say I've been In dozens of hoarder homes and it was always disturbing esp when I'd be maneuvering through decades of trash while stepping on roaches
The first was so sweet. Lucy is a really good person, and that lady was so lucky to have her as a neighbor
The Bud Light dude gives new meaning to alcoholism. Poor man. The hoarder stories shocked me.
8:39, If you melted down those into Aluminum bars or just took them to a Recycling center, you could make SEVERAL THOUSAND dollars of this Haul of cans.
I know what it’s like. My house isn’t like these, but it isn’t the best. I was so ill - still am - with fatigue last year. It’s hard to keep up cleaning and conserving enough energy to even function. I have no true friends either really. I really feel for these people.
😔 God bless you...
Bless your heart 😢❤️ I can only hope and pray it gets better
I can relate. I have fibromyalgia and now a sleeping disorder. That means I can't clean everyday and that the bigger projects, like deep cleaning, take me longer to get to. Most days, I manage laundry and a few dishes, and that's it. Our home is in good shape, and my husband helps out, but it's really frustrating.
Regarding the elderly lady. I'm surprised she wasn't placed in a care home, or assigned with a carer. Unless she was good at hiding her needs from the council. I will also point out, I think most people here in Britain hardly know their neighbours.
I can relate to some of these stories. I suffer with depression and I am a hoarder. I had a home that was too much for me because the stuff I had. It wasn't filthy and smelly it was just extremely cluttered which made me feel even worse. I was ashamed to ask for help because of the embarrassment of letting people see it. Unfortunately I lost my home due to financial circumstances and I lost most of my belongings. Now I have pretty much nothing including a place to call home. I do know if I have the chance of a home then I will never let it get messy again.
Oh my goodness!! I almost cried on the first story. We need more Lucy's in the world. God bless them both. ❤️
Hoarders “making a new start in anew place” is just certain misery for the next homeowners. Someone in my family was pretty afflicted with it. It was the unspoken family secret, but people in town started to find out and gossip.
Yeah I know someone who needs to be on this...my sister...she got mad at me for wanting to throw out her trash she throws all over her floors and bed in whatever room she's talking over with her junk.and my parents for letting her do this to their house🙄 its discussing and super frustrating because she and my parents thinks this is normal and it's not and then she gets mad at you when you try to help her out..ugh🙄
Yep, when my uncle passed his entire house was covered in Bud Light boxes. He made tables, chair's etc..Every single wall was covered by the boxes and he built a fricken pyramid with them in his movie room. Took us almost 3 weeks and 4 rolloff dumpster's to clean his place. Sadly he had a massive stroke and passed in his sleep. We think drinking may have played a part in his passing.
Hmm 🤔 Drinking just maybe might have possibly had something to do with it(Also my condolences 😞)
@@alicemallard4385 Oh it definitely had everything to do with it. Thank You.
One of my exes used to have a bedroom full of crap-it took us 3 continuous days to dig through it all! He honestly wasn't bothered by it-I was😊
About the rat horde... That is crazy. I had a few pet rats and the first one, she was a absolute sweetheart. Rats are really intelligent in their own capacity because she cared for us like we did her. The second one we got was a little fiesty though with a few disapproving nibbles from time to time. Unfortunately, their life span is very short and usually end with them getting a cancerous tumor. It was devastating when the sweetheart passed. I can't own another rat because of their short life span makes my life more difficult handling all my grief.
But have you ever heard about the diseases that they carry?
@@demo2497 absolutely. Domestic rats are checked for diseases first. But the fact that that horde was being kept as pets completely unregulated is dangerous.
The short lifespan is what stopped my from getting rats. I love them, but I get so attached to my animals. It's hard enough losing a cat at 18 or 20. 😔
My mum used to wach a TV show named "How clean is your home" and the houses that were there were almost as messy as these ones and some even worse.
Hi @Rono’s Creations That show is on CZcams still if you want to watch it. The spin-off is Kim’s Rude Awakening (or something like that). Enjoy! Hoping 2023 is more peaceful for you than you expect! 🙏🏼🇨🇦
Same situation
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a “hoarded” house, *without a box of baking soda* 😂🤷🏻♀️
This video might have been a bad idea. As you said at the beginning, hoarding is a mental health problem. This video is more shaming than caring. These people need help that's all. No matter what anyone says, they really can't help themselves and need someone to support them. If an elderly person doesn't have friends or family, they have no one to reach out to.
Aurikatariina has a CZcams channel and she's amazing. She doesn't judge, she just helps.
Especially that crack the narrator made at the end of the segment regarding the guy who picked up a handful of trash a day.
Just go seeing "Hoarders" episode if you want a caring video!!! Here the youtuber just made a "top of..." and the goal wasn't caring but just sharing with people that horrible hoarding exist!
Lucy wasn’t horrified like the title said
She was just shock
yes u r 101% rit
and sertenly not HORIFIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIED
Regardless, bless Lucy; and I'm not even Religious. But Lucy definitely has earned my respect.
Yeah you’re right
You have a point🤣🤣🤣🤣
This makes me want to clean my room up. My rooms not all that messy but I could re-tidy it up a little bit since I haven't moved things around in a while.
Thanks to Lucy! We need more people like her.
She sounds sooo freaking hot and sexy doesn’t she?
Lucy is not a human...she is a real live ANGEL....as for all those who helped...wow wow wow...and more wow...thumbs up to all.
He could have paid rent if he cashed in on the recycling cans.
This is what it truly means to be human. We are ALL family, friends and neighbors. If we don't look out for one another, who will? Take a moment and check on or visit a neighbor...
But...social interaction...
My grandmother was a hoarder. I don't remember it being as bad when I was little but when we went to clean the house after her passing it was bad. It's a very sad thing to see.
I was dropped off to clean a home and saw the kitchen and cried, really cried because the large kitchen floor was COVERED wall to wall with pots and pans that all had mold in them. Someone was cooking and buying new pots instead of washing them and putting the old olds on the floor. I cleaned it all up and found a nice-looking kitchen under all of it and the owners jaw dropped when she came home and saw it cleaned. I found that I like a challenge.
Bless you work ❤
We need more people like Lucy in this world. Add Auri to that, we also need more people like them.
I had a horrendous nervous breakdown, followed by bouts of depression. My home became pretty nasty. Since I have recovered I have so much sympathy, many people who either through health problems, depression and many other causes end up in situations like these. God bless and much prayers
Guy with all the beer cans and bottles could have paid his rent cashing in all the return deposit.
I thought i might share my experience.
I was a hoarder myself. It really is a life full of crap, depression and isolation.
It always starts with some little dirt. Som trash you think "i will bring that out tomorrow." Soon you realize: Youre always saying that. And the trash is already scattered on your desk and floor. What happens next?
Right. "I will do that tomorrow." You just cannot bring yourself up to do something about it. You start to hate yourself. You stop inviting people, making friends, because friends are a possibility for someone to see this. Day by day, it will get worse and worse. Not even my parents knew about this, until one day they had to drive me to the hospital because of an infection i got. So i was kinda forced to tell them, altough i really didnt want to.
The shock was great and i felt no longer human anymore in front of my own parents. Sure, they helped me. For now, its clean again.
But even although they helped. No one ever asked me: Why? People think, cleaning that stuff and renovating fixes those problems. But it wont. Years of isolation made an heavy introvert out of me, and im struggling to keep my home clean. I realize the same habits repeating again.
I always thought about the many different reasons it could have. Maybe i have some mental health problems. Maybe im just lazy. Maybe i have that thinking of "If no one else cares, why should i?"
Fixing a problem like this is not easy. And i know, how quick humanity is to judge the hoarders instead of offering some help, not in terms of cleaning, but also mental health.
My parents just said "Hes given up" and thats it for them. No questions asked, no concerns raised. Sadly, humanity is quick to judge.
Please dont just say "Those hoarders are dirty people, they should just clean!"
Its not as easy. We are trying. We are fighting. But we are always loosing that fight.
I've done a similar thing as the first story but when it comes to cleaning my own house 🙄 unfortunately council authority really don't care for humanity they are far far from caregivers
Rats are beautiful, amazing creatures. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for a rat. It tears me up when someone calls them "vermin" as they're definitely not.
They are sacred creatures for me.
YES!
Wow. What a big heart on the lady that goes to clean houses for free.
Way to go Lucy! This world needs more people like her!🔥💜🌍🌹
It's amazing to see people come together and what they accomplish is amazing kuddos to everyone that helped the eldery women ❤️❤️
Auri Katarina is an amazing cleaner! I love to watch her videos! Thank you for including her in your video!
Another soothing, relaxing, funny, informative and entertaining episode!
its nice of people to help others in time of need like this cuz not all older people can clean there house and it gets hard for them
I bet Monica would be running around all those houses to clean up 😂
I would be happy if i bought a house with about 500 dollars worth of beer cans
My dad had a problem with a hoarder that rented out his house and never left untill my mum started to work on the house and kicked out the elderly hoarders and started to renovate the house. 4 years later our house is as good as new and the hoarders were kicked out of their house 5 months ago and apparently the house was so bad it was considered a crime scene.
to you whose facing thru a tough times never lose hope keep going, you are doing fine! no matter how slow your progress, each new week is filled with tiny steps forward. be proud of yourself you got this. ☺️ Happy Holidays! ❄️🎄
Shut up.
Nobody cares
Your just filler.
Hoarding is such a mental health problem and once you get caught in it’s trap you find it so hard to get out. You can be a clean hoarder too, do the cleaning you need to keep the place sanitary but still have piles of unsourced items that have some irrational meaning to the person who it belongs to. The hardest thing in any hoarding situation is that no one usually knows how bad it is and the person shuts everyone out knowing they don’t want to be seen living in this condition. They mostly just need help and support and linking to services that can continue to check in on them and keep them healthy.
The first story gives me hope for the future of humanity.
This was really hard to watch..but I made it to the end..I immediately started cleaning..that's how gross I felt 🤭🤭
8:30 definitely “cracking a cold one” EDIT: I think I know why he couldn’t pay rent
Can you please tell why?
If he recycled he could have... LoL
@@silverphantomme99 it’s because all the money he spent on the beer he couldn’t afford rent
That guys liver is probably deteriorating inside him or he died from liver or stomach cancer... ;..(
@@Sfsandroblox0093 Okay. That makes sense.
Oh, it's Aurikaterina! I had to stop watching her channel because she kept doing close ups of rotten things which made me hurl, but it's so great seeing her work
Why did I laugh so hard with the dancing skeleton on the bed 😂😂 I was 10 again for a minute 😂
This the kind of content that is actually good Keep it up! And honestly this guy should have more subs like really he should
....He already has over 11 mil subs
True
I legit put this video on just to feel better about my life. I'm not even ashamed.
And you shouldn't be.Sometimes you just need that little pick-me-up.
No way!!!! I'm from Hanover PA! Super cool to hear it mentioned. Sad it had to be in a video about disgusting homes.
I took care of a hoarder, when he died, it took 14 huge C containers to clean his house out. In his refrigerators there was food in there from the 1970s, like that fridge was full of nostalgia, however the joy finding items I remembered having as a child, quickly turned to a stomach turning situation and I had to hire people to do that. It took me 4 months to get it clean enough for the workers to come and put in new flooring and subflooring as he has many cats and they went wherever they wanted to. I decided that after this experience, I wouldn't do anything like this again.
Essentially these are Hoarders episodes.
I feel kinda bad for those kids who had to live in that horendes house for so long.
The beer can one got to me, an old friend of mine's uncle passed away, and it was actually really sad how they found him. My friends mom went to visit because they hadn't heard from him in a few weeks, and he didn't answer the door so she called the police for a wellness check and to get in the house. He was passed away in a chair (heart attack), absolutely surrounded in beer cans. His whole house was a pool of beer cans. He was a very awkward and lonely guy and always kept to himself except for coming to occasional family outings. He had died of a heart attack and my friends mom (his sister) had to find him dead in a pool of beer cans in his own house. Absolutely awful and sad situation.
I think it would be nice to do another series on a topic
And I thought my room was dirty 6:05
True me to
15:20 This could've been me a few years ago, and I still struggle to stay out of deep ruts of depression which cause minor versions of this woman's situation. I think the only thing that's prevented it is being poor and having to move to new rental rooms often enough I don't have enough time to let it get as bad as this. But I did cause a roach problem in a city apartment some years ago.
Depression is a terrible disease...
