Is it normal to live in squalor?

18% Normal
16 Comments

I knew a young woman who aparently "suffers" from squalor syndrome. She thought it was a "homey environment" having clutter around her in a housing agency apartment. Then she moved out on her own and became a full blown "pig sty" She even stopped taking showers, brushing her teeth and collecting all sorts of furry creatures in a small rental apartment. I'm not sure if this is a normal lifestyle but it seems to me like a concoction for a disease of some sort.

    Wow, interesting. I always wondered what happened when people rotted to death. Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks for letting Me share. She went over to that old lady's house to take $100 from her again and had the audacity to ask the old lady "Can I have More?"

    This has to be the funniest thing I've read all day.

    If this is true, can we get more info? Like how old is she? has she ever been in a relationship, or does she have any children?

    I smell Troll about many comments to this. That said?

    The O.P is taken as uncontested. We've got such people all around us even if it's NOT NORMAL to cross the line from homey to filth. Even disorder of non-filth stuff like hardware or books/ other media- still is mere clutter. It's when you get bugs and rats/mice that it's NOT NORMAL. Same with body hygiene FAIL.

      I'm not sure? She never really told Me the truth much nor told Me about other things but she has been known to smell like cat shit.

    She's sedintary, smokes cigarettes all day long, eats junk food (i.e. no fruits and vegetables are ever consumed)She sits in her boredom calulating lies in her head and she even gets tired of that then calls this old lady who lives acrossed the street from Me and demands money from her usually $100 in one hit and she never pays it back. She gets her own SSI check. She burns it up on stupid stuff and more stuff to get pet furr and her bio-squalidity on so the place stinks to high hell.

    Sounds like you are a pathetic control freak. Worry about your own problems, not someone else's housekeeping.

    She also had an infantile outlook on life and twards herself. Because of the Pathelogical Lying, the squalor, the non-hygenic effect and the onetime I caught her when she was 28 wearing diapers I nicknamed her POOPY!

    She only looses things if she gets evicted due to her squalid lifestyle, I suppose landlords can do that these days.

        I finally got in contact with her last week and she told me she's had the same ear infections for two years and have gone from bacterial to fungal because she says both of her ears are in severe pain.

      She's short and chubby. She like to take advantage of people once you start giving her things, she keeps exploiting that. She eminates a stench because she's mal-hygenic and if she rubs her pale white skin black stuff flakes off. She has no teeth because she let them rot.
