INPUT ARTICLE: Article: There are many complex factors that contribute to hoarding behavior, but many hoarders have common risk factors.  Hoarders often have a family member who is also a hoarder, experience a brain injury, or undergo a stressful life event such as the death of a loved one. Some hoarding behavior also results from co-occurring mental health conditions, such as:  anxiety trauma depression attention deficit disorder or hyperactivity alcohol abuse being raised in chaotic homes schizophrenia dementia excessive-compulsive disorder personality disorders It may be emotional or embarrassing for the hoarder to have a family member sorting through his things.  He may be more open to having a professional organizer or an objective outsider help. Cleaning alone will not solve most hoarding problems.  Individuals suffering from hoarding disorder often need a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), skills building, and medication.  The particular method of CBT used with hoarders is called exposure and response prevention, which desensitizes participants to the things that they fear and reduces their responses to that fear. Medications prescribed for hoarders are often SSRI antidepressants that are used to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder as well. Some of these medications include Anafranil, Zofran, Lexapro, Zoloft, Prozac, and Paxil. If you live with the hoarder or if he is a family member, you may both benefit from couples therapy, family therapy, or group therapy.  Attending therapy together may encourage him to go to his therapy sessions. A physician may be able to give you advice about how best to work with a hoarder or convince him to seek help through therapy.  Some communities also offer assistance for hoarding or mental health issues through their public health agencies. It may be necessary for public health or animal welfare agencies to intervene with the hoarder.

SUMMARY: Recognize risk factors for hoarding behavior. Offer to help hire an outside party to assist with the organization. Encourage the hoarder to seek therapy. Offer to attend therapy together. Contact a doctor or mental health professional.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Embroidering with a sewing machine is a great way to get the look of a professional embroidery job. To use an embroidery sewing machine to monogram your shoes, you will need:  A sewing machine with a computerized embroidery setting. A pair of shoes with a long tongue. Canvas material works best, such as a pair of Converse. Thread. Choose a strong, smooth thread, such as cotton. You can use any color you want. A pair of scissors. A seam ripper. An embroidery hoop. Sticky stabilizing backing paper. Sewing machines with computerized embroidery features usually include several different designs to choose from. Look through the designs to choose the type of monogram initials you want to embroider on your shoes. After you have selected a design, follow your machine’s instructions to select your desired initials and set your machine to the recommended tension, stitch type, etc. If your machine does not have an automatic embroidery setting, then you can also try to do freehand monogram initials. However, keep in mind that this will be much more challenging and may not look as neat as the monogram that a computerized embroidery machine will produce. Try asking around to friends and family to see if anyone you know has an embroidery machine that you could borrow for your project. The only part of a shoe that you can easily embroider with a sewing machine is the tongue. This is the fabric under the laces on the top center of a pair of sneakers. To monogram the tongue of your shoes, remove the laces and pull the tongue out and away from the shoe. If there is a tag on the backside of the tongue, then you will need to remove it. Use a seam ripper to cut off the tag. You can do this but ripping the seams on the edges of the tongue and then removing the entire back side of the tongue. Next, place a piece of sticky stabilizing backing paper into your hoop. Make sure that you place the paper so that the sticky side is up. Then, press the tongue of your shoe onto the center of the sticky stabilizing paper so that it will stay put. If you do not have sticky stabilizing paper, then you can also use regular backing paper and use the hoop to secure the tongue of the shoe as well. However, this may be difficult if the tongue is not very long, so using the sticky paper is ideal. When the tongue of your shoe is secured on the sticky paper, you can begin embroidering. Make sure that you follow your machine’s instructions for embroidering and monitor the sewing machine as it completes the monogram design.  After the first shoe is finished, raise the needle and pull the tongue away from the paper. Trim any loose threads that you see. Monogram your other shoe and then replace the laces in both shoes to complete the project.

SUMMARY: Gather your materials. Select your design. Pull out the tongue of your shoes. Place your sticky stabilizing paper in the hoop. Start embroidering.
