I watch it and find myself disgusted all the time. I personally know someone who is like this, a few years back she was pending eviction from her apartment because she lived in filth, she had a daughter who at the time was 15, we rounded up a bunch of people and we were all going there to help her get the house clean so the fire department could do the inspection. There were 6 of us all raring to go, when we got in her house there was litteraly just a path way through the house, I kept thinking to myself OMG how are we going to do this!! We all had big trash bags in this mountain of " stuff" , it was useless stuff, she had infant seats, ( no baby) , 10 electric fry pans, bags of expired food, clothes that were not only outdated but would fit no one in her family .I was sooooooooo sick to my stomach that he poor daughter lived like this and knew nothing different!! It was just like the show reveals, she couldnt part with any of it, she went into panic mode as soon as we touched things... every little thing we went to put in the bag she found a reason to save it , or why she couldnt part with it, It made my skin crawl... She is known to pick through dumpsters etc , its crazy because half the sh*t she had in there was broken, expired , no use for but she NEEDED it all incase this or that!! Its sad we all ended up leaving after she flipped her lid and started yelling that she needed everything and for us to get out!! Her daughter ended up having to go live with her uncle, I understand it is an addiction but how could you let the state take your child away so you can have stuff and live like a filthy pig!
