My mom is a real BAD hoarder. To the point where you have to make a path threw her house. I'm scared to even take my daughter over there because I'm scared she'll get lost in there or maybe even hurt herself trying to walk threw there. I really don't believe my mom would even be willing to let someone come in there to help clean up that mess... I really am in need of some advice on what to do about this.. Someone please help...

Summer, will she admit that she has a hoarding problem? Would she like help in overcoming it?

The book "Buried in Treasures" might be useful for you, even if she won't read it herself.

Summer,
I expect you are in a situation where there may not be a lot you can do.

Look at these two threads for some discussion.

Section cleanup help; Thread: I'm in a bind.

Section: How to help a hoarder; Thread: Took her in and its now here.
