I reflected over that as well. I suspect that the hoarders more often may have been made aware at an earlier stage, they can't use the space as to what it's intended for. Friends and family have said that they can't visit etc. Excessive cleaning is not that disturbing to other's around.

And then the other one proudly throws half a bottle of bleach in the toilet. And then I hear myself thinking; "One was technically supporting the environment and the other one destroying it.

I think Tuesday and her mom should live separately and deal with their OCD on their own, they have a codependency relationship and feed off each other. Its almost as if they compete with each other with their OCD. One always wants to be more obsessive than the other.

@mayalove9672

It totally can be, if you are raised to believe something is extremely dangerous and terrifying and that's all you've ever known it can be incredibly difficult to see the common sense side of things. However often times its developed as a coping mechanism to deal with stress or loss or any number of mental challenges. You see lots of people develop it after getting out of a relationship or losing a loved one. Often children who have no control over their lives, like the girls raised and participating in REF military, grow up and learn to take control in an unhealthy way like hoarding or obsessive cleaning. Most of these people are born with a predisposition for OCD tendencies and the way they manifest depends on the way they were raised or the struggles they face. That biological aspect could play a part in the fact that it can run in families.

There is also a form of OCD that comes from PANDAS or PANS (acronyms) - which is when the brain becomes inflamed due to streptococcus, Lyme disease and a few other viruses and bacteria. Usually when this is the case the OCD comes on suddenly.

Richard is such a lovely person.

I couldn't watch the mother and daughter, they clearly feed off each other's phobia. I don't know if Tuesday has a partner but I'd feel sorry for anyone she might meet as she and her mother would be sterilizing the poor bugger every time he/she popped round. Michelle, bless her, my heart went out to her. How awful that she's had to carry the burden of believing her mother cared more for cleaning and what the neighbours might think than she did of her own daughter! She says she hated her for it yet couldn't let her mother's possessions go. The psyche can be so cruel. I love dogs but I almost vomited when Linda was talking about the stains on the bedroom carpet etc. But it was wonderful to see how she acknowledged she needed to change. Richard certainly worked his magic.

At least the people in this episode were grateful for the help.

This is one of my favourite episodes, the understanding and willing to learn on each side of both of these stories is making me want to get up and scrub!

For Louise to impose HER military expectations onto her small daughter is monstrous!

I believe she can have OCD but I also believe that most of it is learned behaviour because if you look at it, they react in the exact same way. She is mirroring the mother. When they went to the first gym, the mom had a reaction when she walked thro the door. The daughter didn't have the same reaction until she saw her mother. She exaggerated her behaviour but I don't think she did it on propose. There was an episode where the mom had to get a haircut and she started freaking out, jumping up and down and saying " it's so dirty" while crying. In an other episode, the daughter had the exact same reaction down to the words, body language and the voice when they went out shopping for shoes. I don't think the daughters OCD is as bad. A lot of these challanges are done as a group and the mom often reacts in front of the daughter. Almost immediately, she copies the behaviour even if 10 seconds ago, it didn't seem like she was bothered. Maybe it started as a way to help her mom feel normal, or to get closer to her only to later evolve into an illness. I think that if the girl was to be alone without her mother or the camera crew, she wouldn't do the extreme things that she does. She might still clean but not as much. She might still hesitate to eat out but if she was alone, no mom, no fellow OCD people , no friends around, she would do it in a more calm manner, without crying, without freaking out, even without wiping the table first.

@@amethyst1826 or also in that episode where she had no problem hugging someone whole she wouldn't hug her mom, or this other episode where they noticed the plates had "1000" score on their germ detector thingy but she still ate the whole food while her mom refused to finish anything. She is also very discreete, won't voice her opinion most of the time, sometimes I feel like she let her mom speaks first so she can agree with her afterwards

Linda is lovely, she was ready for change and she really turned the corner, thanks to Richard unavailable guidance. I wish her all the best

Shocking how many ppl in the UK have undiagnosed and untreated mental health issues 😰 I hope EVERYONE in the show continued to get better mental health 🥰💐

It's because they have been cutting mental health NHS funding for years .... just for me to see someone at children's mental health service took over 1 year and then another year to get diagnosed with autism.. so 2 years total just to get 1 diagnosis.. I have undiagnosed adhd as well but I'm not wanting to do another 2 years to be officially diagnosed

The same anywhere isn't it? Especially among certain generations, who never had a culture of seeking help for mental health conditions or perhaps don't "believe" in them.

Helping hoarders is different to helping someone clean though... it would take a psychologist realistically 😊

Agreed and it was a bit upsetting to me when the OCD-lady with the dark hair, admitted to; 'chucking away a handful whenever the read-haired-lady isn't looking." That can haunt her forever, not-knowing what might've been thrown away, or losing something and then thinking it was thrown out with the items. ALWAYS let the hoarder see EVERYTHING you are throwing out and ONLY clean if they are next to you and can see what you throw out. And ONLY throw stuff out if they physically can't do it, because it's better if you let them do it and decide over it. It's a controll-issue, so you will not solve it if you take it out of their hands and you throw it out. It just shows them you can't be trusted.

Leslie is a pain, she’s putting her issues on her daughter

I cant help feeling sorry for OCD sufferers or gemofobs. The can never just relaxs or enjoy something. Ritchard gave grate tips. Once you get on top of it it s easier to maintane. True

richard is an actual angel

This amount of chemical use is so not good for them or the environment. Do they ever get sick? Coz its important to build immunity to some germs/dirt/dust! How are they coping during Covid I wonder??

love a clean home but i could never spend four hours cleaning.

I couldn’t imagine living with a parent like this, and being bought up to be super clean. My room is an organised mess, and I know they would just hate it. But I love it

I feel for those who use that amount of Bleach. The damage they are doing to their health is a worry. Each to their own.

If all of those OCD cleaners are paranoid about germs and bacteria, why don't they just stay at home. Doing bacteria tests out in public is totally ridiculous.

Well done to the obsessive cleaners. I’m not obsessive about cleaning, but I definitely couldn’t have cleaned the house with the dogs. This demonstrates that we all have issues, to some extent. The key is to find the balance that works, which may be easier said than done.

Is this show still ongoing? If not, immediately bring it back pls because i looove love it 😄💞 i love the light-hearted approach for both parties. They dont create a drama out of each other but simply help.

Putting two crazy people together in a filthy house lol...great idea.

I'm certainly not OCD but that dog poo in the house and the goats jumping on the units does really make me shiver. Would not want to touch anything

Michelle doesn't believe she's harming her children and says they have days out, but are they allowed to play outside and get dirty, to paint without worrying about 'oh my God what if they spilled'? Have they ever been to a car boot sale and known the joy of getting that book or toy they wanted for 50p, second hand? Would she allow them to eat a hot dog from a van there, or go on a bouncy castle that other children have been on with dirty socks? And people who clean obsessively often use lots of air fresheners -you know the ones that pump formaldehyde into the air your kids breathe. And are their immune systems even properly functional? Because once kids get beyond the delicate new baby stage their immune systems NEED exposure to germs to prime them. If chemical cleaners always do the job their immune systems don't have to learn to work so hard to keep them safe. "No germs" doesn't keep kids safe, it cripples them making them unsafe when their immune systems have to cope with germs in the real world.

I'm a bit of a obsessive cleaner but that's it everything you have said my kids can do ... just because you like a clean and tidy home doesn't mean your kids aren't looked after or allowed to have fun 🤷‍♀️ You can say the same for the dirty people there's no room for the kids to play, they can get food poisoning from dirty kitchens and end up very sick, there may be limited money because they buy so much crap that there isn't enough for days out with the kids, there clothes may be dirty leading to bullying because the kids personal hygiene isn't seen to properly Either side is to extreme there needs to be a middle ground - clean home to be safe but happy kids x

@@alison2984 But do you have air fresheners pumping chemicals out into the air your kids breathe in the house? Are your kids breathing in the fumes from you using chemical cleaning products all the time? And yes, kids shouldn't be going OUT in dirty clothes, but they SHOULD sometimes be coming back in them. Are your kids happy to do something they want, even if it means getting themselves and their clothes filthy, or would they worry about that, know Mum 'wouldn't like it'. (I'm not talking about kids being inconsiderate, just that sometimes rolling down a grass bank DOES mean getting covered in grass clippings, paddling a stream does involve getting wet and muddy). If you aren't filling the air in your home with air freshener chemicals and your kids aren't afraid to do anything 'because Mum will go mad' then I think you have the balance right.

That feeling of euphoria is "high on bleach" I can be a bit untidy but my bathroom and kitchen are spotless.

Well i am a horder (i am a seamstress and have a ton of sewing supplies/fabrics) and in comparison i suffer from OCD! But i do not clean with bleach! I clean with natural cleaning agents and special cloths!
