The clean up process after months and years of depression is almost bad enough to send someone right back into depression mode…
Depression can bring on fatigue, lethargy, and difficulty focusing making it extremely tough to stay organized, even if you are usually a very organized person. This is me telling myself and reminding anyone else who needs to hear it. Don’t give up no matter how overwhelming it may feel.
My office at work and at home are a mess, just cannot be bothered to tidy them yet. I have the occasional thought of tidying, but when I look at it, I think, what's the point doesn't help when I have things from my parents place that I couldn't let go. I will get there one day when I feel better, but this last bout has been with me for three years and not getting much better.
@CommandLine Best tip to declutter I have ever heard: photograph and digitize all of the clutter. Then get rid of it. If you find you miss something, and need to see it again, you can look at the photograph!
@4meAndyou thanks for that, not sure it's a working solution though. Some things need to go admitidly, I need the right frame of mind to make those decisions though or even the right kind lol
