Messy House
About OCD hoarding, one of the most difficult OCD versions to cure. Watch this video to see what it can turn in to, sadly.
About 6-7 years ago I finally got my wife to go with me to see a physiatrist. she was diagnosed as OCD. The Doctor also told her that she … all » could prescribe some medication for her to help with her OCD. She wanted my wife to get a physical from her family doctor to be sure she prescribed the proper medication. She would never do that and we have been battling over this ever since. I’ve tried everything I can think of to help her. I even hired a company, paid them $500, to come in and straighten up our home. She wouldn’t let them in! I bought books, joined chat rooms, and watched TV shows about this same problem. Out of desperation I wrote Dr Phil and Oprah. We were invited to appear on both shows but she wouldn’t go and they wouldn’t let me come by myself. Dr Phil even called her personally and she wouldn’t answer the phone. I can’t live like this any longer. I am filing for divorce. You will see pictures from 2000 thru last week and you can see it has only gotten worse. The house looks wonderful from the outside, but inside is a different story. Oprah calls it “Dirty Little Secrets”. IThis house has 2800 sq. ft, 5 bed rooms 3 baths, swimming pool, 2 sheds and a hot tub. All this for 2 people! This is not how I want to spend my golden years.
