Can extreme messiness be a sign of a mental disorder? my boyfriend's (age 42) place looks like a tornado went through it and doesn't clean.

In severe cases, yes: The inability to perform basic cleaning or hygiene is seen in severe mental illness although there are a variety of explanations. The context is important in terms of figuring it out. Stay safe!
