Hi @Merv @tyme thanks for the tag. 

I can hear you care for your daughter and her wellbeing @Merv and you also have concerns and responsibilities as her landlord. 

There are degrees of hoarding. I'm a recovering midrange hoarder. I support someone who's sadly suffered an extreme form, jeopardising their health and safety. 

It's encouraging that your daughter trusted and worked with the NDIS worker and things improved. We have deep-seated issues and anxieties around acquiring, living with,  and letting go of stuff, so empathy and understanding - and time - can help unless a crisis intervenes and you need to take immediate action. Encouraging your daughter to recognise things have gone downhill again and suggesting she talks to her mental health team and NDIS providers might be first steps in a negotiated plan of action...  Working with her and deciding how you can help - maybe identifying charities and waste depots, and providing boxes and other supplies and transport... 

It's a very worrying situation to be in so look after yourself, and nurture your own supports. I very much hope you and your daughter can work through this. 

If you'd like to reply just put @ in front of my name.

All the best

Dimity
