If you feel the need to declutter or tidy while listening to this episode--we don't blame you. Today, Lillian dollops Jen on hoarding disorder--an underreported, stigmatized, misunderstood mental health condition with no successful treatment plan at this time. Lillian shares her story of growing up in an increasingly chaotic and hoarded home full of labyrinthine piles, long-dead appliances, and endless Dollar Store detritus. As ever, we find grace in the heartache.
If you or a loved one is suffering from hoarding, and you need someone to talk to, please look up Children of Hoarders on Facebook, or please feel free to reach out to Lillian.
