Thirty-nine-year-old Louise from Royston, Hertfordshire, spends 40 hours per week cleaning, and said she wants to always be "presenting perfection." But this couldn't be further from the truth for 58-year-old Sarah, from Ealing, Cambridgeshire, who was living in and amongst 15 years worth of clutter, describing herself as a "Womble", as she'll "see something in a skip and will go and get it and find a use for it." Appearing on an episode of back in 2013, OCD-diagnosed Louise shared that she spends £200 a month on cleaning products alone, sharing that her time in the prison service, where she spent a lot of time surrounded by uncleanliness, made her think she "couldn't behave in any other way", other than to be constantly cleaning. But Sarah was the opposite as in her home there were over 1,000 dresses, 50 coats, and "countless" accessories as she owns a vintage stall. She shared that she wanted to "get rid of the clutter" but ended up hoarding more, admitting that it's now "smothering" her as she's been sleeping on the sofa for two years due to the clutter in her bedroom, sharing that: "Both the bedrooms upstairs are completely full." Sarah also had three sheds and a gazebo full of her wares. As Louise entered Sarah's home for the first time, she looked mortified, and Louise said that being in a home with so little space reminded her "of being in a prison cell", saying it was "oppressive" with "no space to breathe." She became so overwhelmed with the situation that she had to go outside for a breather, likening the home to a "warren." Sarah tried to defend the amount of stuff she said, sha){kind=link}
