Hoarders on A&E


Lets’ talk about the new reality show Hoarders. For those of you who do not know A&E has a show named Hoarders that offers a look inside the lives of people with the inability to part with their material possessions whether it be trash, clothes, or whatever. Basically this show gives us insight into the houses of the creepy cat woman down the street or the crazy woman up the road whose house can’t possibly be any cleaner than her appearance.

I’m sorry but I find this show absolutely repulsive! Supposedly the hoarders have some form of obsessive compulsive disorder called disposophobia which makes them cling onto their belongings, but this is just disgusting. Having a whole bunch of purses, books, or newspapers is one thing but when you have so much food and trash rotting in your house that you have a live possum in your house or your kids are reporting you because their tired of living in filth, something is wrong. 
Watching this show just makes me want to clean. Why is it that they have to be on television to realize that their house a mess? Maybe these people are mentally ill to some degree, some even in denial because there is no way you can co-exist in a house that is so filthy you have creatures in your house and are okay with it.
