Lou likes her junkie lifestyle, it's clear that's who she's been all along, it's the few years with James and the kids that were the aberration. I guess most of us have been through periods when our lives were less than ideal, then when things improve you sigh with relief, nest a bit. Not Lou, pizza boxes out the window, s everywhere, the most basic hygiene not being kept up. All she wants is to be able to lie to Carol and her followers for money, to lie to her support workers to keep her home. To lie about learning difficulties and physical pain for pip. It's all short term anyway, it's bad if the neighbours complaints are being taken seriously by her support workers. I hope she's thrown out mid November, when it's bloody cold on the street.
