To not help my mum?

[stackesontop]

I’ve gone back home from Christmas Eve and leaving on Saturday. My mum is hosting a second Christmas Day tomorrow for my other siblings and their children. She didn’t host Christmas.

I love her but she’s extremely lazy. She’s been a housewife for 40 years. Shes now doing a mad tidy up session because her house is brimming with junk. Asking me today to take boxes into the attic and into the garage.

I’ve done the minimum but ultimately she’s had all the time in the world to do this. I have my own house, a stressful job that I’m off this week and just want to chill and eat tbh. I don’t want to clean another and tidy another (capable) adults house because they’ve not bothered.

Give up. Just because someone is asking for help doesn’t mean you must oblige.

Why does she tidy up for siblings but not for you?
I would be annoyed to that someone expected me to clear their house of junk rather than a quick polish and hoover round.

Then you’ll know that hoarding is usually the manifestation of an underlying mental illness?

So basically OP just wants everyone to side with her to appease whatever bad feeling they are feeling.

Hoarding is a genuine MH issue and if you don't feel the need to help, that is fine. Someone in your family shoukd get help for her. It will only be left to once she is no longer here.
