Living with ADHD can get a bit messy.
You start off putting washing away and somehow end up rearranging a kitchen cupboard, finding a half-finished craft project and wondering why you've got six pairs of scissors but can't find one single pair when you actually need them.
If your house always feels like it's in a state of chaos, it might not be that you're bad at organising - you might just have too much stuff.
Between impulse buys, trying out new hobbies, and keeping things because they might come in handy one day, it's easy for things to build up without you even noticing.
Regular decluttering makes a huge difference.
The less you have to manage, the easier it is to keep on top of things.
✨ Have a look through your wardrobe and keep the clothes you actually wear and feel-good in. The ones that have been hanging there untouched for years could go to a charity shop and do some good elsewhere.
✨ The same goes for technology. Sell old devices before they lose their value, and be honest with yourself about those random cables you've been keeping "just in case". If you've no idea what they belong to, it's probably time to let them go.
✨ If you've bought something on a whim and it's been sat gathering dust ever since, sell it, donate it or pass it on to someone who'll get some use out of it.
✨ Try to give everything in your home a proper place. If you can't find a home for something, ask yourself whether you really need to keep it.
✨ And don't feel like you have to tackle everything at once. A quick declutter every month is far less overwhelming than waiting until it all gets too much. Put the kettle on, stick a podcast on, and chip away bit by bit.
You’ll get there! If you feel support would help, virtual or in-person, I’d love to offer you a free discovery call.
