Hi,
I'm new here. Getting closer and closer to asking for help. Overwhelmed, disgusted at how the house has gotten over the past 8 years, but at the same time physically can't do it myself so I procrastinate starting. Plus can't afford much since I'm on SSDI. Now have a new problem- mice- and I'm petrified my neighbors will know and act on it. Started making dump runs, maybe 6-8 bags a trip, but it's just not happening fast enough. In my last home I had a SMALL issue but once I cleaned up to sell I felt so much better. I know I'll be happier amd won't have this feeling of dread once I start making progress here. My husband is a bad hoarder stemming from many things, including parents who grew up in the depression so they bought lots cheap, bought when they could, saved things for "just in case" (even broken things.). Compound that with suffering many losses, ocd/odd.. I knew he was a hoarder & has some mental block about throwing out anything including trash, but I never imagined it could be this bad. I kept up with it pretty well until my spinal surgery in 2017 & I threw my hands up and gave up. I thought if it got bad enough he would stop. ? I can imagine getting my life and my home back, but how? I'm overwhelmed. Any thoughts, prayers are welcome. Or if you know any inexpensive people in MD who can help? I'm at wits end. Adding to add home is just 800 sq ft with no closets so that doesn't help. Honestly current plan was to move at husband's retirement and sell to a flipper to empty and gut it. But now the mice.. Ugh. Help. Sorry for rambling.
