Sorry to hear that your are still in limbo Maven. I wouldn't be worried about putting a garbage bag out every day. Just doing a small amount each day will add up. Somedays I just have to kick myself in the butt just to get one thing done. Once I start I get encouraged by the headway and can do more. Even opening a drawer to start with clothes is a big deal. Do you think your sister could give you some moral support?

I also saw a program in the UK that had people with OCD come and help people who
hoarded to clean their homes. It was really unusual to see that one persons disability turn into help for another one. Here is a link to just one of the places that got cleaned. there are so many more.

If there isn't anything in the US maybe you could be one of the organisers. I dunno. Just a thought.
