Usually, I would not agree. I'm not sure if an institution is required, but he definitely needs to be out of there, and probably put on some meds, along with compulsory psychiatric help. That house is not safe, and he really needs someone to look out for him. If he made some progress after being removed from that situation, great. If not, and his mental state did not improve to the point where he could look after himself better, I would have to agree. At least in a sheltered accommodation complex. Being institutionalised is not always the long term answer. Sometimes living in a supported place for six months or so is enough. Institutions are not a happy place to be, and you are surrounded by people with much more severe behaviour. That can be so traumatic that suicide happens, or the person just gives up. Hardened criminals have said they prefer jail to permanent institutionalization, that's how bad it can be. I'm not sure if you've ever been in one, or had any real life experience in the mental health services area, but putting someone in an institution long term should be the last option considered, unless there is ongoing severe danger to themselves or others.

I'm glad you're not in charge of making calls like that and that's why people have to go to school for years to be able to make the right calls and evalutions.

Insignificant to you perhaps, and although it may be exhausting think how it feels to them. People who hoard most often than not have a fear of loss of control in their life. It’s a mental illness that needs to be addressed before any progress can be made. They become attached to possessions not matter the value. Telling someone that you don’t agree with the value they hold in a object and how unsafe something may be is not the answer and will always yield the same result, which is to get defensive and most often aggressive.

Throwing away items for the first time was the most difficult and after a series of intense struggle, I've gotten rid of about 80% of the hoard. The remaining stuffs are now kept in an unused room and every now and then, I will inspect them and throw away anything that I can't see any potential use for anymore.

I have worked with the houseless population in microhome communities and the "they are sold in stores" excuse is often used for having candles and heat lamps. It's a huge disconnect. It doesn't help. He will end up street bound. It sucks but our system isn't built to help these people long term.

Maybe I’m not compassionate enough, but this is one of those episodes where you need to just take him away to an institution and level/burn it down. Force his separation from possessions and tell him after the fact, “oh by the way it’s all gone. Have a good day”.

I know he was acting a bit aggressively, but they should understand how hoarders feel in these situations, adding that he is an old man who's been living like this for years! they can't just change it right away, they should be giving him more time. I'm sorry but some were shouting at him few times and forcing him to do things he doesn't want to.

Another example of the difficulty in getting appropriate mental health support for an adult family member: the bottom line - you cannot force an adult to accept mental health services (and there’s little to no advocacy support to try and get them to see / understand the benefits). It’s an incredibly helpless feeling - especially when you want so much for the family member to get the help that he / she needs.

If you won’t let a crew go in there to work why is it safe for the person to stay there? I don’t understand why adult protective services wasn’t called right away and he removed from the home and now I’m condemned. This is ludicrous to even do the show on this guy. He needs serious psych help.

I wonder what was the cause of his hoarding. Generally they reveal how the hoarder had a tragic episode in their life such as the loss of a loved one or had lost their job and much of what they owned. This guy Ricky loves to read books and collects all kinds of books as well as holds onto a lot of useless junk and trash. But after all that junk got cleaned out I bet he went right back to replacing what was hauled away.

Based on the way he was left, with most of his hoard untouched, due to safety concerns, it's so much easier for him to fall back into it. With a lot of clips I see, the hoarder no longer has much of a reminder of the old stuff, which makes it less difficult to relapse. Ricky was given a few emptied rooms, whilst having so much access to everything that wasn't removed.

The British version of this show is much better. You can't just clean a hoarders house they need serious psychological help. In the British version they have to work with a psychologist for 6 weeks before they even attempt to do any clean up. If after 6 weeks they've made the right progress then, and only then, will they clean the house oyt
