    He was also dealing with a huge stressor. His beloved wife has Parkinson’s, and that disease just keeps getting harder to deal with. The after house was amazing! His family was impressed, and rightly so. That turned out so well. God bless Dennis.

      It's probably fairly rare that the hoarder is the one asking for help. I'm a retired chemical dependency counselor (whose mom was also a hoarder and I'm still sorting the trash from the treasures). There's lots of similarities between hoarding and chemical dependency. People that are forced into getting treatment by legal means don't have the internal motivation needed for treatment to work. This guy wanted help, and I'm excited for them!

    My brain does the million ideas thing and the urge to hoard supplies is real! But in the end, if you get too much inventory to manage your brain gets scattered with all the variations of possibilities and it can be crippling!

    He was right about that large antique horse. It was probably the most valuable object in the room.
    The kids saying "It's damaged, there's a crack, it's worthless" was infuriating.

      The hoarding was one thing, but seeing how disconnected emotionally the kids were from both parents was disturbing. And adding to that the kids not wanting to know how poorly the mother was doing. I actually had to stop watching this episode midway through because I was so disgusted by the kids behavior smh

      You must be blind and deaf. Matt talked to Dennis like dirt! Screamed in his face when confronted with FOURTEEN LAUNDRY BASKETS FULL OF HIS FATHERS TOOLS! Did some homework and they were sold! Along with giving away thousands of dollars worth of brick, cinder blocks, lumber and steel. That was horrible.

      Matt and Dorothy are the best people in the world. They try to help the hoarders with kindness and compassion. I would love to meet them both. How they manage to help the hoarder realize that what they are doing is wrong from every aspect. I would never be able to do what they do.

  • @nadinenc3097
    @nadinenc3097 4 роки тому +2

    I find it troubling that the children of Dennis were not aware of the condition where their mother was living, especially her bedroom. It was filthy. Perhaps she was better off mentally with Dennis but either the children or the city should have involved adult protective services and let Dennis visit her in a facility.

    It's refreshing to hear him say positive things about this man. It's hard to believe how negative so called experts are about some situations Ive seen. If i were a hoarder and watched a show where an expert said derogatory remarks about the hoarding situation, I'd never get help.

  • @wendyh3891

    Is any of this stuff saleable or donated to charity, or do you literally dump it in a junkyard? There’s so much good stuff that these tragic hoarders could get money for??? Who pays for all the new furniture & furnishings that you bring in?? Wow from South Africa 🇿🇦

  • @carriecoleman2450
    @carriecoleman2450 3 роки тому +1

    If you look at the cost of RVs on Craigslist, anytime I've listed something for a lowball get-it-now price, I have people calling all day until it's gone that day. Dennis could've definitely replenished some of his retirement funds had they done this. Also, California pays very well for recycling, so with thousands of pounds of metals..... yeah, Dennis lost a lot of value in this cleanup. I understand the crew needs to get paid, but Dennis and his wife should've had a lot more than a house without flooring and a new couch after this... no wonder he's tried his best to comply, and no wonder he was upset at the valuable items he lost, as you said- he's not stupid. I am glad his home is safer and remains so, but this was done so dirty!!

    Do the junk guys re-sell some of the stuff they take from the hoarders? Surely at least one of them would know that antiques, tools, etc, still have value.

    • @Upppp9
      @Upppp9 4 місяці тому +1

      But I guess that's how antiques become rare and valuable in the first place: because people who can't see the value of things throw them out.

  • @afton1247
    @afton1247 4 роки тому +6

    I don’t understand how this is an accurate assessment. Seeing the ‘potential’ in objects doesn’t have much to do with intelligence, moreso with creativity. Hoarders lack the ability to control their impulsive acquiring and don’t realize that they can’t be a master carpenter/metalworker/painter/weaver/mechanic or whatever all at once....this is almost making an excuse for the behavior by saying “yeah they’re SOOO smart and that’s why they have so much garbage everywhere”

    • @loupgarou95

    • @kitssch
      @kitssch 4 роки тому +1

      Explanations help with acceptance. I can guess that’s what Matt is aiming to do here. Make the hoarder feel safe, accepted and therefore more likely to let him help move his junk out.

    • @afton1247
