    How do you not go CRAZY?? I'm getting my first Thermal treatment and my apt looks like a warzone. I have bag's in every room. I've thrown out like 6 contractor bag's of garbage. All our clothing are in thrash bags. I just want to burn it all. My wife has shut down and doesn't want to come home. I also going to have like 6 to 10 more bags of garbage to throw out but can't because bulk day is on wedsnesday's. This is just maddening!!

    Hang in there, I was exactly where you are yesterday and it wook everything in me not to kill myself. I had my first threatment yesterday and will be living out of bags for the next two months! Birthday is in May - yeah me!!!

    Hang in there, bagging is the worst - once that's done you just have to stay on top of the vacuuming (remember to remove the bag each time and either dispose of or put in a zip lock for the next use.

    I have usable's in the ziplocks and non-usable in garbage bags. I got boxes in the bathtub. I dont know if im laughing because it maybe funny or from lunecy. The PCO are here and the treatment's have begun. This is the time when you find everything you been looking for,LOL.
    And all of my wife's hidden item's (that she has had for awhile). I'm just rambling because if not one more nut will go loose. thank you for the kind words cfacekillah.

    My pleasure, I know how difficult this is, I too house bags in the bathtub, I am literally a guest in my own apt! IT is just so upsetting. Would suggest that you better contain whatever the contents are currently in the boxes. Everything has to be airtight to not allow anything in or out so make sure you tie off the garbage bags with cable ties (I have the same method going).

    Good luck and definitely be in touch if you need to vent.

    Huh. That's interesting. My PCO (I had thermal done) didn't have me bag anything up.

    I thought when you had thermal the standard was not to bag? I guess different ones do it differently., but I would be afraid of too much stuff bunched together in a bag would make it less likely the heat would radiate all the way through. Maybe bakedbedbugs will explain the variables in heat treatment techniques..

    I know it's tough, but once you get the hard part done, then it'll get better, I promise. Once you do the initial bagging and purging, you get your routines in place, and you get some normalcy back.
