bro i remember being young and my grandma telling me if i dont learn to clean my room then i wont do it when im older. while there is some truth there what she did not account for was the audhd

#hated cleaning bc i didnt have proper places for stuff #my grandma would clean my room for me when she deemed it too bad which meant shoving everything out of sight and #throwing away what she thought was trash #now i can actually fucking designate places for my stuff where i can trust it will stay there and i desire to keep the place clean bc it #puts me in a better headspace #the demand avoidance though! the object permanance issues! the executive dysfunction!#now i can avoid all of those by 1. taking adderall LOL but also #putting things in plan sight #the only things that go in drawers are things that have specific or regular use #like i have drawers for my art supplies #clothes in drawers kitchen stuf fin cabinets etc #but stuff that can easily be forgotten i keep in plain sight #i keep a binder with all our important documents #its just much easier starting from scratch with a place and being able to actually learn to manage my self and posessions #plus adderall. ithonestly helps create new coping skills though likeim still adhd on it but i can regulate better which means forming #pathways and stuff #idk!#i love sharing a place with people who at least have a certain respect for my things #even if the roommate that isnt my husband doesnt have housekeeping sense god gave a goose (<- stole that one from my great grandma)#i mean good lord ive never seen anyone go so long without cleaning #Anything #At All. Ever.#like BRO MY HUSBAND AND I BOTH HAVE ISSUES WITH DEPRESSION AND EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING AND IMPULSE MANAGEMENT #BUT WE DO NOT BUY DELIVERY ALMOST EVERYDAY THEN COME UP SHORT ON RENT!!!!!!#nor does our room emanate a Stink #nor do we habitually leave trash out without (also habitually) picking it up #like i get it yk? but in common areas dont leave your trash around Constant #i get a wrapper or box on the counter or whatev.. but you just do a pass through occasionaly where you pick your stuff up and throw it away #or at least get it in one place #idk how i got into this my roommate pisses me off. also the type of motherfucker to have opportunity stare him in the face and reject it
