What I appreciate most about this video is there’s no annoying music playing all through.

I know right? + You can hear him some vids musics so loud can't hear people talk
Agree!
Great job. You are very kind to help, and very understanding. Wish the whole world could be this way.
I agree 100%
AMEN!!!
I have severe depression and I sometimes watch videos like yours, but this is the first I watched from you. Just watching a normal guy clean like this... I dunno. It gave me a bit of motivation. I finally cleaned my kitchen counter. Thank you.
Greetings from Germany.
Hope it's going well for you xxx
Every action is a step forward❤
Good for you.
❤
I hope that you are having a good day today. I'm sending you hugs, all the way from Texas (USA).
Reminds me of my own apartment, minus the maggots. I fell into a pretty deep depression and couldn’t keep up anymore, trash just piled up. Finally worked up the courage to call my dad and we worked through it together, now I’m staying on top of things and feeling good. Remember guys, if you struggle with hoarding, please, I urge you to reach out to family, even if it’s embarrassing, they love you and want to help.
My dad was a hoarder, and I'm starting to believe Im going the same way. I lived with my mother most of my life, she has Alzheimers and she's been in a home for almost 3 months now, and she's doing great!
Four months ago, I had this same issue: the kitchen was a mess, some maggots here and there (dead and alive)... I paid like $500 to a friend to have the whole house cleaned. It was sparkling like till a month ago, when it started all over again. I have depression. I feel exhausted and anxious. I do visit both psychiatrist and therapist. I exercise regularly (some aerobics at 4:30 am before going to work) but I also have ADHD.
I recently asked my sisters, one of them is right now in my house helping me. It's so overwhelming and I'm so scared of keep having this lifestyle. Wish me luck. 😢
@@Gisellenid That’s an interesting coincidence, I have ADHD too! I know it can be super tough to get the motivation to clean, especially once it’s built up, but the best thing you can do is build up a habit of putting things right in the garbage as you make it. Use a big garbage can so you don’t feel demotivated by having to take out the trash so often. You can do it.
It doesn't matter if the house is spotless, you have to fix the root of the problem
@@Gisellenid Some of the drugs that you take may actually be causing your exhaustion. If you can afford it, find a good chiropractor or naturopath who can give you a blood test, or some other kind of test, to find out where you are nutritionally deficient. There are alternative treatments for ADHD besides drugs that do seem to work for some people.
In the meantime try to keep on top of things as much as you can. Get help to start, maybe ask someone to come in and help you out once every couple weeks. Perhaps look into changing your diet, e.g. a high sugar diet depletes your body of calcium and magnesium, which can cause exhaustion. Or maybe the exhaustion is caused by something entirely different. I'll pray for you. I know how it feels to want to do nothing at all.
I would have used the dishwasher
This man has a huge heart and a strong stomach
Goodness, how would that be to have do many flies hatching on your home 😬 I used to judge people for not keeping a nice home but having lived, & mourned I understand depression now. This is just really Really gross & so sad 😞.
And very efficient hands.
Yeah most of the time I think, "Oh I could clean that up." This one...no way I'd be cleaning that. 😮
And is very funny as well
@@karolina-vd9oc Know the lies of this world, and BE NOT DECEIVED!
lets analyse the lies which are world wide believed and origin from masons:
lie: schools are of use (fact. schools keep slavery alive and stands for dumbing down the population of mankind)
lie: moon and mars landings, (fact: even masons know they cannot leave - earth is closed system, unless you want to drown, there is no other place created for us to live in.)
lie: news channels share truth (fact: these are for politic propaganda)
lie: voting matters (fact: politic propaganda)
lie: money has a value of its own (fact: it is just a tool of this world, which value has been agreed upon world wide, it should be not loved, only used as needed.)
lie: NASA lies (globe and all....) (fact: NASA stands for TO DECEIVE and 2 members expose their own lies, one is still alive, the other (Wernher Von Braun) place a clear clue on his own gravestone) - you havn´t searched - have you?
lie: the lgbtq++++ propaganda (fact: it is a part of masonry depopulation agenda, 500 000 000 souls, thats their goal - Georgia Guidestones! - who said it be worthy to forget?)
lie: Evolution and the dinosaurs. (fact: mankind is not hybrid kind)
to keep stating that there was an evolution, then we ain´t humans, we aint then mankind, we are then hybrids. Are you a hybrid?
Lie: holidays (xmas, Halloween, new year eve and so on) (fact: PAGAN HOLIDAYS, to praise BAAL, the god of this world)
lie: U.F.Os (fact: they are demons/evil spirits in high places, against whom we fight daily = spiritual warfare)
lie: rules and laws rule the world (fact: signs and symbols of masonry do)
lie: believe in being educated (fact: found daily living with the lack of knowledge)
lie: religions are ways to heaven (fact: JESUS CHRIST is only way to heaven. Religions, no matter its name = masonic garbage)
lie: our dead loved ones stay around to “ghost” (fact: hunting and ghosting is job of demons, not of humans. We, humans, come from GOD and return back to HIM and all the stories of having been seen a ghost - terrifying, scary, dark, cold - again no job of analysing been done here by you- right?)
Lie: Humans have no immune system and we need vaccines as these save lives (fact: humans HAVE IMMUNE SYSTEM and vaccines are created for one or two purpose: to kill or to cripple. If you took all their poison shots then later in life comes all kinds of medical diagnoses = vaccines crippled you - remember that)
lie: there is no GOD (fact: There is GOD, who redeems sinners and created us directly from the dust of the earth: Psalms 139:14 (KJV)
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.)
to keep claiming that there is no GOD and we aint created directly from the dust of the earth, we soon run out logic, regardless to we place “evolution” in our claims or not and our dead, whats happening to them as they sleep in their graves? - they decay away, becoming the dust form which they were taken, if it ain`t so then we are simply reality deniers.
lie: 911 was terror attack (fact: 911 was an inside job, meaning the work of your loved government)
lie: TV watching is of use (fact: television (TV) = tell a lie vision, a weapon for our minds, keeping it under MK ULTRA)
half lie/half truth: earth is a stage where everyone plays rolls (fact: earth is stage, a freemasonry checkerboard, where both side, black and white are masons and humans both in politics and regular souls = the naive public gets daily played)
lie: children are government to raise (fact: children are parents to raise, it takes 2 to make them, it takes 2 to raise them).
Lie: we live already in the matrix (fact: we live since birth in BABYLON which is to become “matrix” as Man - us, must merge with machine aka take the mark of the beast and then matrix aka false reality becomes to be 100%)
lie: humans are not intelligent enough (fact: it is forgotten fact, we all are intelligent, many have suffered the illness from this world, being indoctrinated by masons, cause who give us the school system which we have? masons did, because they need slaves).
Lie: love is low standard and = lust (fact love is high standard as love means>
John 15:13
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Lie> do what thy wilt there is no body who has the right to judge you (fact> GOD SHALL JUDGE YOU AFTER YOU HAVE DEPARTED ON EARTH and Christians are also called to give out righteous judgment, therefore repent * born again * go and sin no more)
lie: slavery is over (fact: slavery was never over, it just changes a little as we are no longer buy`d or sold, still prepared through school systems for our future slavery, succumb to our slave lives based on our free will)
lie: BIBLE is man written and a fairytale (fact: BIBLE is written by GOD, through man, bible is not fairytale.
BIBLE IS:
BASIC
INFORMATION/instruction
BEFORE
LEAVING
EARTH
= BIBLE. A book - yes, book which we all need as it is only one filled with information and instructions we all need for life on earth.
Lie: Miss beauty contests around the world is about beauty of FEMALES (fact: these contests are about beauty of MALES IN DRAG)
lie: Medical “virus” known as COVID 19 (facts: real VIRUSES are in Hollywood and kept secret:
- THE TTM virus = being tare, trans, mason.
Lie: There is no truth, no right nor wrong and all is allowed as long as you are happy. (fact: truth is easy to find, search: BIBLE + FREEMASONRY and expose masons in masonry).

When I was at my worst depression, I begged my friends and family to just come over and sit while I cleaned to help keep me going. This guy is a godsend
I would do the same...I seemed to be able to do things if someone was with me or talking to me.Sadly,most of the time there has been noone and I end up feeling paralyzed and unable to do much.
I put on music from my day and that helps me to keep going. We each have to figure out what helps us.
When I have a panic attack I clean, it distracts me enough to pull thru it. I cant imagine how depression feels. I am glad you had good support, I hope you are doing better. Hugs!
Oh, i get that.
Same. I hated beign alone when my husband was at work. I was so depressed fr years and now my home is starting to slowly look better. I don't know if it's the natural not machine rice mexican water called Horchata that is given me the strength to keep going but i find it weird that I started drinking it daily and started noticing this energy and my brain starting to be able to think clearly and not letting me feel how I use to
I’m a house cleaner, and I once had to clean a bathroom that hadn’t seen a scrub, let alone proper sanitization, in over 30 years. It was a five hour clean for this one bathroom. I scrubbed every inch of the place. When I showed him the results, the client was elated because he could finally slide his shower door completely closed because I’d cleared the track out. What you did for this woman is genuinely life-changing. I hope this was the start of a healing journey for her.
I am from Iran and we celebrate beginning of spring every year and we call it Nourooz. Part of tradition is cleaning every corner of the house before new year. When I say every corner means nothing should be left unclean. Everything should be clean including everything in cabinets or closet. When I was a kid I hated it because my mom forced me to do some chores but now I really really appreciate it. The fact that u clean your house every year means u care about your health and well being and also your family members
I love that tradition!
man that sounds pretty nice. we sometimes all need a kick in the butt to clean
9:19 😢😢😢
Finally someone who does not shame the house owner or give their homes weird names and yet think they are the world's best cleaner. This man is way more sensible and composed,fully aware of what he is doing and so humble.❤
I so agree. He's so incredibly kind and compassionate to the home owners. He is also very educational, trying to help others understand the context and factors that go into this so that we can ALL be less judgmental towards those who are struggling.
Well, he must get youtube money though, otherwise I fully agree.
Cheers
And he loves cleaning.
@@foutchiedoutchie9978well, he is paying those clean-ups with his own money so not sure what your comment is supposed to mean
@@sidlerm1Doing things for free is not always coming from good manners or good intentions, it can be a disguise. Just being sceptic. Like the proportions of income out of a youtube video for the free service can be out of proportion (the video can be very lucrative), it's a general thing for youtube. Like don"t be naive.
cheers
I used to empty out foreclosed properties for a living, spent several years working in properties that had large amounts of mold, rotting garbage, maggots, roaches, fleas, vermin and their various forms of excrement (you should see the fridges/freezers that I've cleaned!). While none of your video content surprises me, I cannot stress how much health danger you and the house occupant are in just by being in the house without PPE, particularly a good respirator (not a cloth mask but a full respirator), even just picking up trash as you are in the start of the video. I used to make myself very sick by ignoring PPE for jobs like this. You really should be wearing a respirator, eye protection, skin protection (gloves), and a disposable or changeable garment/coveralls the minute you step foot in the property. Please don't misunderstand, I love the heart that you bring to this, and your attention to detail is superb! I just have concerns that you are going to cause yourself preventable health issues as I used to do.
You read my mind. I used to do this kind of work, and always used PPE.
Yes... Listen to this person now before you say to yourself, I should have.... And now I have this avoidable problem. I also had a fire fighter give me a tip once, don't wear the sneakers you use to clean with in your car or in your home. Make sure to keep those shoes in your car and spray the soles with peroxide.
Ap
Yes, please take care of your health. You're an angel.
Totally agree with the toxic cleaners he is using, especially oven cleaner! I wish he had on gloves and mask right from the start!
Man hearing you say you're autistic too was so cool. Sometimes I feel like cleaning is impossible but knowing you're autistic like me and do it so well is really cool. You also said it so casually. It was nice to hear. It should be normalized. Keep up the good work!!
Right? I mean he aready had my attention but I that point I was even more excited. I already saw him pop up earlier but now I definitely want to see more and subscribed.
Well said,my friend!
Yes! My 10 year old daughter is autistic. She was just diagnosed last year. Before then I just couldn't understand why some of the most mundane things (like the sound of a dishwasher running ) would set her off. It's nice to know she's not alone 💜
That is a very brave thing to say. Did you have to get the exterminator in.
I'm autistic too and I don't really understand how being autistic impedes you from doing normal things like cleaning. I'm happy you found inspiration don't get me wrong but him being autistic shouldn't matter tbh.
Your parents raised a good soul and a brave one I could not tackle that kitchen.
I think I'm going to "steam-roller" my sons tonight and if they don't like it, I'm going to say "suck it! devil worshipers!" and then spin-kick them out of my house! But seriously, this is 100% my new favorite channel. I'm a therapist and I admire your way of explaining mental illness and giving real world examples of how it affects people, and how we can show empathy even if we can't relate to others' challenges and suffering. Your sense of humor has me laughing at every video. I'm thrilled your channel and business is thriving.
I have Asperger. Before getting my US registered nurse license, I was a housekeeper. I loved it. I cleaned many “hoarded” houses, I loved the challenge and the look on clients faces when the mess was gone. I understand your system. I appreciate you for helping people. God bless you.
Parabéns pelo seu trabalho de cuidar das pessoas. Tenho um Filho Asperger.
In one of your videos can you show how to take the oven door apart to clean in between the windows
You are awesome, wish you lived around here and could help my mother-in-law. Sounds like you are a very special person.May God bless you in all you do
Well good for you! You didn't allow Asperger's Syndrome to provent you from having a life. Alot of folks would use that as a crutch but not you. In the UK Sarah Harding (1981-2021) of The Group Girls Aloud had ADHD but it didn't stop her. She would do an extra hour of choreography before her bandmates arrived. They really appreciated it.
A friend sent this to me with just the message of "It's okay." She knows that I'm struggling with depression really badly and that basic functionality has been... rough. I clean when I can, but just doing the dishes is sometimes a red letter day. I see the mess that keeps trying to grow, and just looking at it saps my strength to do anything about it most of the time. And I know what she meant. It's okay. You aren't just being lazy. You're struggling, and there are people who understand. I really needed that today. About 3/4 of the way through the video, I got some cleaned up. Not as much as I'd like, but... it's better. Thank you.
You are amazing. Congratulations for getting done what you got done. That takes a certain amount of courage and a lot of grit. Kudos! I know what it is like and I honor and respect you for pushing through... 💯 🤗👍
You are amazing! You will do a bit a time, blessings
Each night, give yourself an "okay" for each bit you cleaned or kept that way. Bit by bit.
@dagoonite--I'm on meds for depression, anxiety, mood swings, and more. Better Homes and Gardens isn't featuring you. Just wash 10 dishes, rinse and stack what
you can. Pick up 10 pieces of dirty laundry, and journal. Later on, do a little more. If you have enough dirty laundry, do a load or two if you can. Sweep the kitchen
floor, maybe. Pick up papers and trash, if you can. I use small garbage bags. Each one I fill and toss is a triumph. Tina, Al's wife
Congrats! 🎉
There’s no words big enough for what you do or how well you do it. I’m on a limited income, kinda out of shape, can’t afford a housecleaner and you INSPIRE me to clean. I never learned the products to use, so I’m so grateful to learn from you what works. Thank you.
Just stunning! I'm sure that this poor lady and her family were very grateful to you. You're right; a service like that would normally cost at least $500 because most people wouldn't clean it for less than that since it was a biohazard. Your compassion and concern shine through. Working my way through your videos here.
What an amazing business model is this. She gets a free service and you get paid by the viewers. Its a win win for everyone
and she’ll have the cleaned up areas fucked up again in less than two months time. 😅😅😊😊😂😂
Your average UA-camr doesn't make that much, unfortunately. Though hopefully the referral links help.
Very true!
I love that as well. I rather watch this that negative story stuff on UA-cam
Some people are just too lucky . Imagine you make that big of a mess and someone comes and cleans it all for free
Honestly, hearing you talk about sensory overload ( when something is too loud so your anxiety spikes ) made me feel not so alone. You're just incredibly wholesome, i love it :)
@@dechinta YES, I get that too at work!!! Oof it's so bad sometimes.
I know you clean but do you also cook ?
Me too! ❤️
I have never let my house get this bad to the point of maggots. I used to be able to keep up on the housework but since my mom has fallen 3 times due to a stroke, im Over at her house cleaning, bathing, cooking, etc.all the time. Plus, I have my own health issues, being heart related.
My brother mentioned it yesterday, that my house was starting to smell like pee and poop.( He meant the cat litter needed changing). So he came over and changed it, swept, dumped trash, etc. He got on me about my housekeeping and I explained to him that I am handling it. I talked to my mom and on Wed, she is going to be on her own so I can get stuff done in my house. But its difficult being a caregiver for a parent, and having health and mental issues of your own.
Usually I watch an episode or 2 of hoarders and that gets me motivated. But when your exhausted,you HAVE no motivation to do ANYTHING. So I can COMPLETELY understand how it got this way. No judgement from me!!!
Bless you! I'm in the opposite situation now. After many years of caring for my disabled husband, he's now in long-term care and COVID affected my heart, almost completely disabling me, so my adult son now takes care of me, despite having serious health challenges of his own. I am SO appreciative of all he does, because I know how difficult it is for him. I've watched several of this man's videos and I think he's *wonderful*! I'm autistic as well, and it's fantastic to see such a positive, productive and compassionate person who is on the spectrum. We're not aliens. We may have unique ways of looking at the world, but many of us have wonderful gifts to share!
I've shared your wonderful kind and knowledgeable video with my husband. He and I are concerned about his ex-wife and grown daughter who is also autistic. They are both suffering from her mother's hoarding. You cannot walk from the front door to the back of the house without having to move things aside. The kitchen is a duplicate of this one or worse. There is a terrible odor in the house. We are so concerned that we are considering reporting to the Environmental Health Office here in England. She would not accept help from us. It would have to come from somewhere official. Honestly, what you say in your videos is so direct, matter-of-fact, and yet so compassionate I almost wish we could import you to help. As it is, your videos have already been a great help in giving our concerns a context. Thank you so very much.
Mental health needs must be addressed, so that the person does not feel attacked. Even when the living conditions are dirty, the person may feel guilt, shame, or even panic, that can be compounded if the "helpful" actions feel too abrupt or disorienting to the person. Moving too quickly can trigger self destructive behavior in the person. Your concern is good, but please proceed with caution and respect, even though the exwife's behavior may not seem rational.
Yes please do contact the agencies that can start to help them. I know there are compassionate people in the UK!!
I'd certainly consider reporting to her local Council's adult social services team. Especially if there's a vulnerable person in the home. It's not just for elderly people.
And, if possible, encourage his ex-wife to see her GP to help treat the root cause of the hoarding. X
I have a childhood friend who's house probably looks like this. I can't say for certain because she won't invite me in and actively dissuades me from wanting to visit. She does admit to agoraphobic tendencies. So she's effectively trapped in her hoarded home. It breaks my heart that she still isn't in a place where she can ask for help.
as someone suffering from deep depression, i appreciate your work so much man. what people dont understand is that everyone can end up in this types of crisis. no matter how clean you are or how disciplined you are. mental illness is something that can cost all your qualities.
If that's true....they do not need to be leaving there but need to be living somewhere where they can get help and not live in something like this.
I have lived with depression most of my life and would never let my house get this bad. This is just someone being lazy and nasty
@@ghostsamongus3370 Then you haven't lived with depression your whole life. When you are engulfed by depression you fall down exactly like this and you lose all sense of purpose in life which in turn makes the idea of picking trash or doing anything pointless. I know because I was in the same situation after being abused by my religious family
@@universecreator988 still no excuse to live in filth like this. I can understand things to a certain degree, but if someone let's it get this bad they were probably always like this
@@ghostsamongus3370
I apologize, but it seems like you may be looking at this situation from a rather personal standpoint. It's essential to remember that depression is a highly individual and subjective experience, and it cannot be generalized. The manifestations of depression can vary greatly from person to person.
Passing judgment on whether someone's circumstances warrant their struggles is not appropriate. Depression is often accompanied by a complex blend of traumatic experiences from the past and unresolved issues that one may not have been able to cope with effectively.
Each person's journey with depression is unique, and it's crucial to approach it with empathy and understanding. Instead of making assumptions, let's focus on supporting each other in our struggles and being compassionate listeners. Remember, mental health is intricate and requires sensitivity when discussing and dealing with these delicate matters.
When you said you're an autistic person I was like...
Woah.
I mean... It's so nice to see someone like myself doing something that they know how do do perfectly with all the nuances and stuff. Who can explain things the way you can understand clearly. Who know their weak spots and who accepted them, doesn't forsing themself to do them and also explains them to others.
That's a special form of passion.
Your work is amazing and extremely motivational. And the fact that you put your time and effort on helping someone in need for free... I mean... man... my heart literally melts away.
Thank you for everything.
I'm so glad you are willing to call APS or whatever services are in your area. It's extreme, but necessary.
Deaths and murders in my family enabled the hoarding habit to come back to my mother. Her kitchen isn't as bad as this, but I am watching and listening and taking tips to hopefully unravel it in time. I'm sick, but I can do it a little by little, with patience and effort. It's helpful just to watch these sorts of videos and get a game plan going.
i really appreciate how fairly judgement-free you approached this home. I know it’s easy to see a house in this state and immediately ridicule the homeowner for “letting it get this bad”, but we really don’t know their life and they probably feel guilty enough as it is.
You’re so kind for doing this
Abbey, yeah it doesn’t have to be like this! If they making this house this bad there is nothing wrong to them! For me they just been lazy to clean. If people as they go it won’t be like this bad. There’s solutions for everything.
@@yucibe5663 i can’t tell if you’re agreeing with me or not haha. I don’t think they’re necessarily being “lazy” though. Mental and physical health play a huge role in this, and if theirs isn’t great it can make it very difficult to get the motivation to clean. we need to have empathy in situations like this
@yuicibe , mental illness is no joke. My mom is a hoarder and my daughter just teeny to her house and did just what this man did. Everything was thrown out because it could not be saved . I’m moving to where she lives ( another state) so I can keep an eye on her and keep her surroundings clean and livable. I’m 68 and mom is 86. So please don’t judge without knowing the circumstances.
We are a complex species. As long as we don't endanger innocent lives and that I mean children and animals, then I hope you get the help you need to get your life back on track.
@@lindagatti7796 i 100% agree !
I love how you have such a fun sense of humour, but always talk about the clients in such a respectful and sensitive way. You are clearly a very compassionate person and what you're doing is making such a huge difference to people's lives.
- Also, my sister is autistic, so I totally get what you mean about the dishwasher noise!
Autism is a superpower not understood by normies.
Every time he said "Oh hey more dishes" I got more and more tickled.. I love it!!😂😂
I couldn't imagine this being my kitchen and the amount of stress relief I would feel seeing what you have done. It's not even my house and I feel a ton of stress off my chest. ❤
Yes these are real problems. There was an elderly lady i helped a while back. Her bathroom was piled high of used toilet paper and crammed with stuff. I couldnt stand her having to live like that. I cleared it out and cleaned it so she could use it. I had to do it when she wasnt home. She agreed and a friend took her to the park and kept her busy. I got it done and cleaned her kitchen too. She was so happy to see those rooms cleaned up.What bothered me was ppl were bringing her food each week and what she didnt use would just rot. I asked those ppl to only bring over what she will use and eat. They wouldnt come in her house 'because of the smell'. Her utilities were eventually turned off, which was horrible. I really got onto her church she went to to help her and anyone i could. Her mind was going. Her dog died and finally the pastor came over to help her bury her dog. It was more than depression, it was dementia. She was normally a very clean person. To see her detriorate was devastating. The pastor finally got her in a nursing home. It took a ton of phone calls to get help. She had no support. It was awful. I also didnt charge to clean. Another thing she wasnt doing was taking her heart medication. She had a pacemaker. I cant believe how difficult it was for ppl to help her. About 4 months later she sadly passed away in the nursing home. Thank you so much for helping this person. You did a great job! The world needs more compassionate ppl like yourself. Thank you!
Thank you for helping her. My dad died from Alzheimer's. He did not want to get help or go to the doctor and it took us quite a while to understand what was happening. It was very, very hard to get help for him or a home. Once he just walked out the door and was found in the suburbs on the other side of the city by some kind soul who just stopped him to ask how he was.
I have often wondered about all these people who don't have close family members. Thank you for stepping up and helping, it really is needed.
@@CainXVIIOh, my God, an unfortunate end. No one wants to die like this. After years of regularity, careselfe and extreme hygiene, you become demented and old. It is something stronger than you. You cannot resist it and you cannot absorb it until you ask for help, poor old woman😢
You did a just awesome job at helping this lady! Everyone should be so lucky to have someone like you around.💛👍
That is just heartbreaking.
Im thankful she passed away in a care home with nursing staff to care for her .
Please don't call yourself a moron, you're not, you do such an important job, you're wonderful 🌸
❤
Real moron is the guy who created all that mess. Sheesh how much of a lazy bastard could you be.
Preach It Boo! I see these houses and when they go from "before" to "after" it's amazing. Sometimes these folks are so depressed and sad they don't know if they are coming or going. Also maybe they were traumatized by their childhood where they may have lived in filth and it's normal. Check out Aurikatarilna, she's amazing as well. Also remember on Roseanne, they had dirty laundry on the steps, and the like. It was supposed to be like that but even on The Conners, they still are living in semi mess.
I paused your video to clean my kitchen. Bless you young man
@@laminageI don’t know how people live like this?! How can they cook?!
I was in the beginning stage of hoarding and making my house into a dumpster, but thankfully my bf took me out of that. Watching your videos makes me appreciate the help i received even more deeply 🙏
What steps or actions did he take to help you? I might have to help someone but I am struggling with what the right and most effective methods.
@@PresidentMercury at first he tried to throw everything out but i rebeled so he knew it was futule 🤣 so then he just helped me clean regularly, and eventually i was ashamed if my trashy house when he came by so i started doing it by myself too!
Then when we decided to move in together he helped me pack and sort through things and suggested to let go of one or two things at a time that he saw i didn't use and didn't have much attachment to. I still don't let him touch certain things at all, but when i try to buy stuff he will ask me to think about it (can we use something we already have instead, can we lice without that thing at all, just sit on the decision so it's not becomes impulsive purchase) so i think I'm doing better.
But also it's important to know that I'm not a very bad case!! ( i don't think i am, i hope I'm not... Haha)
I don't know if this will help you, but i hope it helps you find a direction!
I’m dragged down to a state of inertia by illness, Rheumatoid arthritis, Fibromyalgia and stage 4 cancer. I haven’t got a cleaner because I’m too embarrassed, but boy, my little flat is a palace compared to how some of your poor clients have ended up. (The maggots made me throw up, literally.) you have inspired me to get stuck in & change the way I live. I need to throw out most of my clothes, I’m agoraphobic & only go out to medical appointments, that will help enormously, & I need to throw away a lot of stuff that I can’t even remember the provenance of.Once I’ve done all that & made room to put my feet without falling, (I do a lot of that,) I’m hoping that I’ll be inspired enough to carry on, though it’s very slow work for me. At least I won’t be such a hoarder any more & won’t be ashamed to hire a cleaner for the things I cannot do, thanks to the arthritis. You must have a beautiful heart to go through what you do without a word of judgement, God bless you.
Just do a little at a time. I try to work on one room at a time. Sending you a virtual hug.
Hope it's going well xxx
Good plan! Every thing you do, is one thing done... our hero here says break it down into smaller tasks!
Don’t feel that you can’t get a cleaner I have cleaned for people over the years and I would rather be able to see a vast improvement than just move dust around .
I don't understand how she was able to use that kitchen without getting sick. So glad you were able to make it safer
When life beats you down, and no-one is there to help, and you're living paycheck to paycheck with no avenue to improvement available, you will be astounded how well you can adjust to a new normal. You don't even realize how much you've acclimated to being... less, until circumstances conspire to improve your living conditions.
Oh trust me, it can get to you, and inhaling all of that without opening any windows will affect your health.
@@ecyor0nonono, no amount of beating can get you to accept THIS low if you are normal human being, this has to be some kind of mental sickness
At this point surprised she didn't have maggots up her arse
@@xoresgaminghub5412she does have a mental illness. She’s a hoarder.
500? 500?! You'd ONLY charge 500 for that quality with the mess that you started with. That'd be at least a grand or more ... and you did it for free! You sir are saint and the world needs more thoughtful people like you in it.
for real
There's not enough money in the world for me to do this 🤢🤮🤮🤮💀
@@ayabokti161 ö
$500 that’s an unbelievable amount for all the excellent work you did . Here in Melbourne Australia cleaners charge $90 an hour for just normal domestic cleaning. That amount of cleaning would have been $3000 plus an extra fee for the maggots!
yes more of him. he is a saint. a real act of love.
It was like a unifying, satisfying feeling I got hearing him reference his autism. That explains the whole video, and I guess his whole thing. I love it. I'm here for the dedication to cleaning. It's probably a skill that'll last as long as the Earth.
You have a heart of gold, and you will have a jewel in your crown when you get to heaven. It is beyond kindness what you are doing for this lady. This is actually a real mental illness and this is evidence of that. You know that she is beyond mortified and ashamed. These people usually do need outside intervention and usually in an extreme way. I am a recovered hoarder and I have had two consecutive hoards. (I rented both apartments from the same landlord- he cleaned the first one, but I cleaned the secomnd one myself. But that is not very common. I got psychiatric help, including medicine and a couple years of therapy. I was so grateful to my landlord for cleaning the first one that I insisted on cleaning the second one myself. (With hauling away provided by him). Mine was way worse than this; yes I had all these vermin: but also mice and raccoons. It took me two months working almost every day (at least 40 hours a week).
Lord Almighty I am so happy you are better!! You were in danger with those raccoons!! ❤❤❤
This is much more satisfying to watch than the Hoarders show on A&E. And I appreciate how you address the homeowners conditions instead of judging them.
I agree, just getting to the cleaning helps my anxiety 😬 more calming!
He should run the show! He’s amazing!!
Yesssss
You should judge them very harshly because of people like you that they'll keep doing it
I used to watch Hoarders to get me motivated to clean when I was deep deep in a depression.
Just to throw in some advice as a biologist, 70% isopropyl alcohol is actually preferable to 97%. I know it seems like the higher concentration makes more sense, but ~70% is the most effective concentration in killing things. Also that won't sterilize anything, just disinfect. Good luck (:
Good to know! What is the difference between sterilizing and disinfecting?
Yes can you please explain
@@susiethomas6909 I wanted to know as well, so I did a web search. I found a site that provided the following information:
Disinfecting and sterilizing are both types of decontamination, a process that makes something safe to touch. The purpose is to kill enough germs so the risk of infection is extremely low.
Disinfectants can kill most viruses and fungi. While disinfectants can kill bacteria, they may not be able to treat bacterial spores, which lay dormant.
Overall, sterilization is the most advanced form of decontamination. Sterilization removes all microorganisms.
Methods of sterilization may include:
pressurized steam (autoclaving)
hydrogen peroxide gas
ethylene oxide (EtO) gas
ionizing radiation (typically used for medical equipment)
dry heat cabinets (for medical instruments)
infrared radiation
advanced filtration
@@luckylunaloops Explained it perfectly. As for the alcohol concentration, there needs to be a certain amount of water present for the solution to actually pass into bacteria, etc. Turns out ~70% is just about the perfect amount of water to alcohol ratio to pass into bacteria and kill them. Also keep in mind that when you mix 70% isopropyl alcohol with more water, you're diluting it further and making it less effective. I would suggest keeping a spray bottle with nothing but 70%ipa in it to use as a disinfectant. 2-10% bleach is also a very good disinfectant.
Thank you for addressing this in this post.
I just discovered this video, and I am amazed. I am a hoarder and I have tried and gotten overwhelmed and given up for years. This video has given me hope and inspiration. Thank you so very much. I am going to try again.

How's it going for you?

Thanks to you, I am cleaning off my kitchen table today and then moving on to my cluttered corner, so suck it 🎉Thank you for the encouragement and advice. Cleaning off one spot at a time.😊
Yours is the most remarkable cleaning video I have ever seen; the horror you tackle, your methods, your industry are just astonishing to me. Thanks for a glimpse of who you are, what you do, and what is possible. Amazing. Thank you. And courageous. Did I mention courageous?
The amount of times you said "Oh hey, more dishes!" cracked me up every single time. Honestly this is me since I myself am primarily responsible of dishes in my household.
I can do the dishes, turn around and there are more. How does that happen?
@@suzieseabee I know right! It's like a living curse lol
So funny.
I laughed too, I think it was the delivery. 😂
You gave this person their life back! They were probably in such a dark and low place with no clue on how to get back from it. They just got a second chance.
My mom was a hoarder. When she died, my brother got the house. He spent a few years cleaning it up and making it livable. Then he started collecting his own stuff. I struggle with hoarding tendencies. Your videos help me.
He found his calling to the world. It takes a special skilled individual to clean bio hazard. Most people would have tore out and remodeled the entire kitchen. Bravo Sir you are one in billion.🎉🎉🎉
I have watched many hoarder shows and never seen one like this one. This video motivated me to go clean my garage and basement.
Thank you for helping & cleaning this person’s home. You’re a good human.
I love that you leave in the soft sounds of cleaning instead of overlaying music. It's much more relaxing.
Totally agree!!!
There is something therapeutic about watching cleaning being done. Thanks, I find it relaxing.
Beautiful work, you soon kicked that kitchen into oblivion. We all need help sometimes, so thanks for helping this lady that’s probably helped many, many others in her life time.
What a kind man you are. Thanks for helping others.
Not all heroes wear capes and you, Sir, are a true hero making the world a better place!!
I really appreciate you mentioning where you set the boundaries (fridge cleaning, nooks and crannies and so on). It's really helpful when I am helping my relatives clean. I don't have to do everything just the most important things.
What a man you are. You have a heart of Gold 🙏🏾❤️
My mother was a hoarder. My aunt was a hoarder. Several in the family were. I did not realise it is a hereditary thing. I am just the opposite. A clean freak. I did this to my mom's house many times. I would have to clean a path to get through it to clean it. You are a Godsend Sir. Bless you for doing this.
That musta been so tough in top of the grieving process, and everything else you had to do. Did you find it made it harder, or was it a welcome distraction?
Hoarding is considered an OCD disorder and some mental disorders are hereditary. I wonder if it's also a nurture thing? If you grow up like that are you more likely to become one?
Yep. My grandmother and mother are quite hoarders too. Things just don't make it to the trash, but I don't think that having three kids helped at all. Now that I'm on my own, I'm trying to be more of a minimalist. My weakness tends to be furniture. Empty corner? Get a small table. Small table? Get a table lamp. Got a new job? I need a work computer table, a brand new chair, and a cabinet. And in the end, these end up being cluttered because I use them as storage spaces more than what I had originally intended them to be.
Maybe it's not hereditary. Someone linked hoarding with narcissism. Look up NPD and Carol Burnett sketches 'The Family' (as a brake), then Ross Rosenberg interview 'The UGLY Truth About Gaslighting, Brainwashing ...' Narcissist hoarder doesn't want to part with anything because people do leave them but things don't, so they hold on to the, like if their life would depend on it.
I think some hoarders have Aspergers, which is hereditary.
My mom and Dad were terrible hoarders (which I believe goes hand in hand with uncleanly, unsafe living conditions) and I've spent the last 2+ years in my off time helping them do what you are doing in these videos.
It is a daunting, often thankless, extremely physically and mentally demanding task... Kudos to you sir.
Yes, Haarding and Diogenes Syndrome really destroy lives, families, houses, economies, etc. They consume the mind, time and life of those who suffer from it and those around them.
God Bless you. 🙏
Love your courage 💪
I hope that they can also get counselling for their hoarding. Without their introspection, most hoarders just go back to what they have always done. You are doing a great undertaking by helping them & I hope that they can appreciate what you have done & change.
I've spent my last 3 years (no job, just THIS SHIT caretaking for her 94/dementia) going through my gmas house. She is a CLEAN HOARDER. 70 YEARS OF SHIT. I'm at my wits end. I can't do anymore. The garage is killing me.
I am a hoarder. I hoard mainly because I am disabled, cannot walk really and my energy since being released from the hospital and skilled nursing is practically zero. I watch your videos to get ideas to share with my caregivers. We use APC now exclusively to santize. For cleaning we use Concentrated Simple Green because I have cats and am worried about them walking on the wet floor if we use any other cleaner. For my stainless steel sink I cannot afford Barkeeper's Friend, so I use Comet. Thank you kind sir for all you do whether it's cleaning up really horrible hoarding and the education you do. I do appreciate what you do, I used to in my younger days, but now, my caregivers make sure I live in a clean and safe environment.
I’m autistic and the exact opposite of you - I need a dishwasher because doing dishes by hand immediately makes me gag and I can’t do more than a couple without straight up vomiting, but here I am watching biohazard cleaning without batting an eye 😂 You’re doing some incredible work here and I can’t imagine how this lady must’ve felt after this, it probably changed her life and hugely helped her mental state having a lovely sparkling clean home for the first time in years. All power and love to you, you are amazing!!
That first minute where you had no gloves on gave me so much anxiety - thank you for helping those in need!
Same! I was just at the beginning of the video and came to see the comments to see if he eventually got gloves on and thanks God he did 😆
@@jillianthorpe7672 I bet an arm and a leg you wouldn't ever be able to do 1% of what he does
This was such a good voiceover; you kept anticipating every question that arose, you addressed the issue if hoarding (and other mental and physical issues) so respectfully and your sense of humor is great. So thank you for that. Oh, and for the actual cleaning and the filming of the process - thanks for that too. 😊
Flipping off the cabinet door that kept closing made me laugh. I do that type of thing to objects too when they annoy me in just the right way. Rewatched that a couple times.
Thank you for helping people! It feels so good just to watch you cleaning up the mess!
Really happy that you discuss hoarding as it relates to trauma and explaining to the audience. It's not about being lazy or not caring.
It's weird having to explain to the world that some people need help but can't cry out or are simply ignored
And their family does not give a f, no help.
I bet it's laziness. Trauma is an excuse for that. All the hoarders and 500lb fatass landwhales say they been molested. I don't believe that.
@@uan9166 I want to speak to your comment as I believe you have not ever had to live or deal with a hoarder, let alone in an ongoing way for what may be years. You likely have no idea how many times the family has helped or tried to and when a professional comes in the hoarder doesn't curse at them, call them names, talk down to them, tell them how they are going to use this, that, and the other, make accusations of the person stealing from them when they lose things in the home, risk their own health repeatedly, and I could go on with things a family member or members of a hoarder have had to endure. Trying to get the person help. Calling adult services. It's the hoarders house and they can tell family member's to get the F out and never come back and as a family member of this person you can sometimes only take that kind of verbal abuse and maybe seeing your parent and childhood home or your sister/brother declining for years and years before you can't take the abuse on yourself anymore and you need to step away for your own mental health and your own life. That is what it is like being a family member of someone who hoards. The accusation this person's family does not give a F, when maybe they have given so much of themselves they have nothing more to give because the person sees nothing wrong with their behavior and doesn't want any help.
Until you have lived it and lived the absolute heartbreak every time you go to your family member's home and are not even allowed to help pick up because you will get yelled at or accused of taking something they lost days ago you have no idea what it's like dealing with a hoarder. Maybe it would be 100X worse without the family doing all they could to this point.
99% of the time the state won't have them get treatment. They can refuse and live in unsanitary conditions. It's their place so they can tell any daughter, son, sister, brother, etc. to go F themselves and get off the property and while it hurts and tears the family apart . . . .there is nothing anyone can do.
What kills you is when you have tried and tried for so many years to help someone and they don't want help and don't see any issue with living like this and you simply can't do anymore without taking from your own family, your own mental health, w/o risking bringing you kids to see grandma/grandpa living like this, but you can't risk your kids health and the family member blames you for never bringing the kids over bc "you don't want them to have a relationship with the kids" or w/e reason they say, but the blame is always not their issues. You can only do so much as a human being and give so much of yourself before experiencing caregivers fatigue. It kills you inside that your family member lives like this and there is not a dang thing you can do about it.
Don't blame the family members for this person's issues as you have no idea what they may have been through with this person for years and years and years. The family members may very well be in therapy themselves from this behavior and the horrible things it can do to a family, not just the one person you see on the screen. You are judging people you don't even know for what took years to become the way it is, not a day. Maybe the family members need empathy and sympathy as they can't help this person with their behaviors either.
in some it is.
I really don’t think I could’ve done cleaned this without gagging to death. You did a great job.

Thanks for the service. I just feel happy watching your cleaning. The person who through depression, will appreciate your video.
I would take one look at this and feel so overwhelmed I wouldn't know where to start! You're wonderful that you can begin and take one step at a time.
My advice for her daughter is to have her mom go through all her dishes. She doesn't need all those dishes for herself. Break it down to three plates, cups, saucers. Then she won't be using every dish and if she does she won't feel overwhelmed in doing the dishes again. I know my mom felt this way before she went into a nursing home.she used a larger and medium pot for cooking. One frying pan and small amounts of cooking and eating utensils. My heart goes out to this woman. God bless you for helping her and her family.
I agree! Thank you! You know I should apply your advice to my home. Even thou there only 5 of us. Definitely make it easier on me as a mom
Great idea...I'm 70 and I think I'll do that now 👍.
I agree. I had issues with too many dishes getting piled up so now I have 4 plates, bowls, forks, etc. Making that change helped a Lot.
That's actually good tip!
That need demolished, would not injure my health, hope he has a lot of injections, covid for sure, sick, I've cleaned house but this is contagis
I love that you don’t put music over your videos and we just hear your narration or the sped up cleaning sounds. It’s really relaxing and actually calms my anxiety a bit. Thank you for these videos ❤
Same!!!!
True this kind of videos really help my anxiety and sleep
The narrative is awesome. Man has a gorgeous voice. The rest of the guys like me appreciate no nasal which I suffer
I too enjoyed watching with no music
I hate videos with music in the background. Usually not my taste and it is usually so loud it's hard to hear the narrator.
Respect for the hardwork. Doesn’t matter what anyone says but you deserve a standing ovation for the work you do. And even if you are making money on youtube for views and all, you truly deserve it. It takes patience, determination, courage and commitment to do what you are doing here. I wonder how dirty people can be sometimes because in my house we don’t even let a dirty glass sit in the sink for more than few hours. In India we clean our house every single day. We worship in our house, live in our house, make memories in our house. So we must respect and cherish the house itself for always keeping us safe, sound and happy. Moreover, cluttered homes are the doorway straight to hell. The more your house gets dirty the less happier and progressive you will become in your life. Once again, great work man! Hats off to you for your efforts.❤
I like the style of your work, the way you clean. You do it methodically, thoroughly. You don't just clean superficially, you also disinfect surfaces - which is essential in places like this. And that's what I call deep cleaning. Keep up the good work! Greetings from Poland! : )
I have found that men (if one can get them to clean) do a thorough job of cleaning, I know my brother did.
Home neglect is not always from depression. Catastrophic incidents, being overwhelmed, issues with pain and health, also contribute to home neglect.
You are a blessing, Sir. I pray the woman will be okay. I know she must feel extremely grateful and relieved.
The amount of professionalism and empathy you bring to your work and the person living here is really admirable.

It always makes me sad to see the conditions some people live in - hoarding is a terrible illness, and I'm so glad that there are people like you out there, who don't judge, but just try to help. Great job!!
I love you naming hoarding as an illness.
@@suecarbajal1199 I also find hoarding fascinating and have studied it a bit. As best I can understand, having things around them is a form of comfort and protection - it keeps anxiety and depression at bay. Just ripping it all away and cleaning up can make the anxiety worse to the point where they can't take it anymore, and bad things happen.
be care full
If I live in a filthy house my anxiety will go through the roof I could not take that
@Salty Vixen Podcast ,
Oh my god a man that not only knows how to clean but also puts time and effort into it! Amazing. Didn't know that was a thing. Job well done

Flicking off the cabinet door was so funny lol. You should try carrying painters tape with you so you can keep doors taped open in the future without damaging them
Seeing people do this restores my faith in humanity. Thank you for showing this person compassion. I hope she finds help to manage her life given everything she is dealing with.
It truly takes a special kind of person.
No matter the situation, it's so sad to know that someone is living in that. Watching these makes me realize my dirty house isn't as dirty as I thought. But you are doing God's work sir and I applaud you ❤️
You're a generous and compassionate person. Thanks for helping and not judging someone in need. You help make the world a better (cleaner!) place. I learn a lot about how to deep clean from your videos. Thanks!
I keep seeing comments from people here that these videos motivated them to clean their house, even if it was just one small area of a kitchen or bathroom. The same has happened with me a couple of times over the last few months since I've found videos like yours. I really believe videos like these could be used (along with other treatments) as therapy.
The world needs more people like you. Many times not even the family helps out the way you just help this person out.
I like when you narrate while you work it's very informative and I like the way you discuss how hoarding is an illness and that her house is like this because of depression I think a lot of people need to hear that
Me too
Amen. Chronic illness + PTSD + depression = hoarding.
Yes, it’s almost always attached to mental illness. People don’t ask to be mentally ill. If they could wave a wand and be rid of it, they would do it in a second. They’re trapped in their own brain.
Also, she had multiple surgeries and is now barely mobile. I wish I did not understand that, but I do. I’m facing my first shoulder replacement in 6-7 weeks (12-14 months total recovery time), I need the other shoulder replaced, as well, then I’m looking at both hips needing replacement, then rods & screws in my lower spine. My husband works almost 7 days/week, and cleaning is not his forte, plus, he says it’s not in our budget to hire a maid service. I do whatever I can-sometimes laundry; I sit on a rolling stool, then pick up clothing items with a toy “grabber” and place them in the washer. Some would judge us by our home, but we do what we can when we can. I cannot begin to describe what a blessing you are to people who find themselves in these situations. Rock on, Punk Cleaner!
@@marinashear3818 I'm sorry to hear that. If you haven't already, might you strongly consider finding a Functional MD and/or really good naturopathic Dr. to see about naturally approaching healing?

Never thought watching somebody clean would be so much fun
I use to be a clean freak and while I understand lived in and slight dirt... I never use to be able to comprehend why people let things go. Lifestyle, lazy, drugs... but after being extremely ill myself (covid - just before pandemic hit, I was sick for 4 months) it led to Chronic Fatigue, chronic sinus's or sinus disease. I can barely wash dishes now. My house is NOWHERE near as dirty as any house featured on any cleaning channel, but for me it's dirty. I also have CPTSD. While I'm trying my hardest, I've realised that I am a bit of a hoarder... I keep ripped clothes or broken things to fix them - though my hoarding is small enough to be in cupboards or suitcases, not just all over the place, but I feel that mentality. I'm going to work on that and also getting rid of OLD bills I have from 20 years ago!!! like WTF! Love watching your cleaning
“Im going to spray the countertop with oven cleaner. At first I thought well I don’t really know how that’s going to react with this old cheap laminate on this countertop and then I looked at it again and said I don’t actually care how that’s going to react with that laminate…” Love it!!🤣
Another channel I follow uses oven cleaner for a lot of stuff as they've tested it over time when they're doing hard stuff like this.
You’ve got to make a go fund me so we can support, this is beyond compassionate. This is so heartwarming.

I have already watched this video but UA-cam automatically started playing this video. I wanted to share an idea that came to my mind.
Bring newspaper with you next time you go to a hoard like this.
After cleaning the stove or other surfaces you can lay down newspaper to at least protect the stove from getting the crusted pieces/dead maggots on it from the appliances. Than you can fold up the newspaper and dispose of it.
Recycling grocery bags that will be used again, from a room with maggots?! NO way! You have a big heart.♥
Very good cleaning. I think people who let their homes get to this state should also be encouraged to go to therapy after it's clean.
After this pandemic, I would not be surprised if there are more people with a hoarding problem than we know. Thank you for being non-judgemental and kindly helping this person. Her mental health will be greatly improved when she sees this clean kitchen! I am autistic too, and in my case the sound of a vacuum cleaner is hard for me to deal with.
My daughter would jump on the couch and cover her ears when she was little.
I am not the best housekeeper. I'm a single mom to 3 boys, one of them being autistic. But I could not handle maggots. Bless you for doing this for her and i think it takes a special type of person to do what you do.
Im imagining the home owners happiness at seeing this.
Around 4:07 - "even if it could be saved like I'm not going to. I'm not cleaning a pan full of 50 000 live maggots in it. "
I'm 100% on your side.
Thank you for your good work and all the best to people who need help.
