Ok, this is a big first step for me..to acknowledge that I have a problem and facing it head-on to try to solve it. Please go easy on me... :shame:
I have a problem with clutter in my house, and not being able to get out from under it. My in-laws are coming to visit in 2 months, and I really need to clean up and get organized before they get here.
My husband would support and help the effort if I could just get started. He's pretty overwhelmed between work and home responsibilities, because he has to do most of the home stuff since I only do the bare minimum to keep things up (laundry is about all I manage to do). I started on an antidepressant a few days ago, and now I'm actually coming out of the fog a little bit (enough to reach out to try to get help, which is something I haven't been able to do up until now).
So, I'm sitting in my family room right now looking at mounds of clutter everywhere. Every room in our house is the same. Where do I start? Has anyone else had this problem and overcome it? I hope that someone can relate and give me some tips.
