AYRT

Okay, so I admit my initial comment comes off as patronising. To expand/qualify, if your hoarding is affecting other people in your life, animals, or your own health/ safety, I hope things change for you. Also, from my layman's understanding, anxiety and/or compulsive behaviour underlies a lot of hoarding, so if that is true for you I hope at some point that eases for you so you don't feel like you 'have' to keep the stuff you have, and can be content to just 'want' it.

But of course I don't know anything about your actual situation, so this is all general sentiment about the issue. I made my initial comment though because I live with a mild hoarder myself, and have a friend with a mother who is an extreme hoarder, so I have seen how hoarding can really detrimentally affect families and relationships, and how the hoarder in question can often live in denial of this.

As for reality TV shows about extreme hoarders, though I do find them occasionally morbidly fascinating but I agree that they're more modern freak show than helpful investigative reality TV.
(Though, on a tangential note, the documentary based on this story: http://www.surreymirror.co.uk/Westcott-hoarder-Richard-Wallace-inspires-local/story-16705900-detail/story.html was quite a heartwarming story though, but mainly because it exposed the hypocrisy of some of the village, and the crux of the story was when a neighbour decided to offer to help Richard clean up his garden - only if he wanted help - and the friendship the two men formed following that.)
