Yes but to realize why a person won't change is the reason why they need help. It's something that's stuck and they have to learn to get unstuck. And some ppl have no clue how to. That's why it's challenging and rewarding to help and get the person unstuck. It's truly liberating and you yourself feel great in their joy of finally being free.

He sounds just like me. Hope someone has helped him to recognize what has very likely been holding him back al these years. He seems a good guy and deserves all the luck in the world.

​@@bookwormbon482 Adult ADHD traits are lack of focus, lack of organization, lack of willpower to follow things through, certain OCD traits like shopping addiction, or any addiction, really. Day to day struggle with organization of thoughts - having ideas about things you want to achieve or do but lack of focus/organization to see it through, like having the idea to start a hobby; with initial enthusiasm you buy loads of stuff you think you'll need but then lose focus and move onto something else that sparks your interest before you can actually take up the hobby or soon after you start it. Then it's onto the next bright idea, and repeat....

I'm a ex jehovah witness too. He thinks,image is everything because that's how you're brought up in that religion; they say it's about what God thinks but realistically you're bought up to please people in your congregation and make sure other people don't think you're doing bad stuff. He hates being told what to do now because he's been told what to do his entire life; he's rebelling in his 30s because we weren't allowed to rebel in our teens like normal people. Lots of ex jws end up depressed, confused, lacking self confidence, and finding something to fill the void of the family you lose when you decide not to be a jehovah witness anymore as that religion practices shunning. It's sad but it's true. I hope all the best for him.

Marlon reminds me of my ex-boyfriend. His house was a mess and he made lots of promises he didn't keep. I didn't ever get through to him, so I'm impressed that these two did with Marlon!! Of course, they are professionals at it! Finally getting Marlon to clean up his flat really did get him to start buying into the process, because it felt so good to be in his nice space. Before that, I kept wondering why Marlon agreed to be on this show at all since he would not cooperate.

Because in his cluttered mind he could show it will be ok to stay the same. He prob truly felt there also was no hope. But when u have a cluttered mind I don't see any hope. Always remember there are reasons why ppl have problems. What happened when they stopped caring? Once that's addressed then healing can begin and the twisted cluttered mind can unravel things to declutter makes sense and then yes let's do this. U now feel free to change and do better. We can all improve

I can get super scat witted about doing what's necessary too. I deal with insomnia, depression and anxiety, so to get me to do ANY organizing is like doing home root canal. I LOSE important papers and forget to write things down. Which is hard, because I have really bad memory issues. I am a HOARDER, and so is the man in this show. My mess PROTECTS me from what's lurking in my head, ready to lunge out from the dark bits of my head. I feel bad for Marlon, having had his longed for future sports career yanked away from him so cruelly. That must have gutted him.

Have you ever been assessed for ADHD? Everything you have mentioned is either a symptom or a potential resultant condition, apart from the hoarding which is a common comorbidity. Granted, depression can cause ADHD-like memory and concentration issues but if your memory and organisational problems have always been with you, you could have untreated ADHD which has caused the depression and anxiety. Might be worth a try, an awful lot of the adults I know who were diagnosed in adulthood had previously been diagnosed with anxiety / depression / bipolar as that's what the docs / psychiatrists are often more familiar with.

Honestly, I think it’s deeper than ADHD. He might have some PTSD and trauma from childhood. He mentioned that he grew up as a Jehovah’s Witness. In that religion, your education and professional ambitions are stifled at a young age. You have to be really self directed to find your way in the world because your family isn’t going to prepare you for the real world. You are always told what is wrong or right. I think his disorganization is partly rebellion. I was glad to see he at least has a professional career. Whether it’s ADHD or not, I hope he got some therapy and is living a good life now.

The average credit card interest rate in the US is 14.65% as of January 25, 2021, according to data from the Federal Reserve. Let's say no additional debt is accrued and the $20,000 balance is paid down at a rate of $200 each month. How long would it take to pay back the full balance and how much interest would be paid? It would take 30+ years to pay it off and the total paid would be $155,143. This is real, people.

Interesting take. Yeah, I think so. Since he is not used to limiting celebrations / gifting to birthdays, Xmas, etc. He gifts/celebrates "inappropriately" by doing it excessively. I wish he had more times to celebrate--he seems very lonely honestly. *(edit: sp)*

It seems that some people with these financial problems live like they are in college and are not fully accepting the adult responsilbilities. They don't want to grow up and be a slave to the economy and I don't blame them. It is depressing to work and pay bills forever. The thing about being a repsonsible adult is, there are fun things to do even with the stress of being broke and paying bills. Being an adult requires focus, repsonsibility and maturity. You might go some days without eating what you want, without having that coffee. Adulting is sacrifice.

I think he was struggling with his sexuality and coming from probably strictly traditional religious background, was probably afraid of rejection and shaming.He had already experienced profound abandonment. He is perhaps the most lonely, isolated and cut off from his feelings subject of the whole series.

I think he will find out at thet time what he must do. More cleaning house, cooking at home and haveing fun one day of week or even less. He need no clothes or shues or aftershaves for years. My dad always said, get you a job, pay first in a month al your bils and taxes, if you dont have enought find you an extra job, after 14 hours of work you will drop tired in your bed and tkink twice what you are realy need. Real life is not a holiday, its a hard working days most of our time. Thet knows my 7 year old grandchild. With debt like thet I will be without my flat and in the prison right now in our country or at least on the street. Lots of workers here earn less then 20 000 euro per year and have family, cars and they are not starving.
