Hording is generally a result of deep psychological issues. Usually it's a case of some form of trauma from the horder's past, which results in a need to have "control". That need manifests itself in hording. Forcing a horder to sell their material possessions and giving their home a makeover is like putting a band-aid over a gaping wound. It's solving nothing. It's a short term buzz and the hording behavioral patterns will soon return in spades.

Ultimately, a decent therapist would have solved a lot more than a pre-packaged reality television show.

& kept threatening her with “do you not want to get married”… well maybe not after this trauma

[Lisa-diql]

Literally, none of this helped her shopping addiction. This is literally the worst thing you could do to someone that has an addiction.

As some one who has a shopping problem I can say getting out of debt and being able to spend with In budget is really satisfying u can do it

[CKVampyre]

He doesn't see a future but got that stupid tattoo? lol!

[iako...]

New design was more junky than all that cheap shoes she collected.

[LeiaOrgana]

Wow, they were so aggressive with her.

After that emotional pressure, the wedding would look like the last thing I would want. These people have ZERO understanding for Amy and her emotional state, This is the WORST thing you can do to a hoarder.

And the remodel is just too dark for such small spaces. Not worth all her lost clothes :D.

"I'm a vegetarian." "Amie's a vegetarian and I've put a cow on the floor." Sums up what is wrong with the entire show: Amie is a "problem" and so just a passive participant in her own life. Put that marriage on hold and sort out your issues, please, for the sake of yourselves, your future marriage, your future children. Dear Designer: slow down, pick up the people on the route, play nicely together.

I don't understand why people buy so much clothing, i have stuff from twenty year's ago i still wear, jeans especially. I will wear my stuff until it's worn out, i will even do some sewing, and then i just use them for shop rags when they aren't good enough to go out in public. G-d bless.

[smoll]

Cheap looking "makeover" looks tacky! Wasted their money.

[JehanineMelmoth]

I’d love to see an update on her. I really like Amie, and o thought she did very well during a difficult process. Especially seeing that goddawful tacky bedroom makeover at the end.

[ReneeZme]

This video again? Why can't we get others that haven't been uploaded here?

[mayas]

If I we’re him I’d be very wary of marrying his partner. I wonder how they are doing now.

[madameclark]

9:49 the average British woman has 39 pair of shoes. I have 20 pairs?

[pamela]

I dont know if shopping ruins a relationship i have never in my life neen taken on a shopping trip nut i would imagine it is fantastic but only if u can afford to do so i often have walked by the stores or looked at the beautiful watches or earrings nut as soon as they spot u window shopping they are right at you and as soon as u say i can not afford that they are cruel people to you

Near Chicago. Neighbors converted spare bedrooms to closets. I don't get it. Tina, Al's wife

[violetgilkes]

[ghoststarstalk]

You can't have everything. Where would you put it?
