[QUOTE="totoro, post: 186433, member: 3155"] Irrational! That is the best description. My father in law has some funny quirks, that are very Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)/Anxiety driven. (they really are not that funny when I am around him for longer than a day). He is also semi-spectrumish... he takes medications but he is still very set and needs to be set to get through the day. I have given up trying to understand why some things are one way and others... he could care less. We call him "Panicky- his last name rhymes with panicky" He thinks it is funny! He thinks we are all weird! I don't have to live with it... I would have a hard time considering I am type A and was a (ADHD) scattered neat freak before the girls were born! I have had to mellow out a bit. Thinking about this, husband's Step-Mom's Mom had to be "removed" from her home after her husband died. She had the same type of thing as your mother in law. They spent over a week digging things out... they check up on her all of the time to make sure she has not blocked herself in! She is feisty and says she is fine and nothing wrong with saving some stuff!!! Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and hoarding is very strange/interesting...I think more people do it than we realize! [/QUOTE]
