I'm the daughter of hoarders and never wanted to let myself get this way, but I find it very difficult to get rid of things. This is all made so much worse with 3 kids and a husband who also has too much stuff for our space. Some days I want to take everything and throw it all out. I hired someone to help me clean my garage and spent $700 for one day. We made a small dent and that felt good but the next month my husband and I both had our childhood homes sold and brought a lot more stuff to the garage so now it's packed again. Every time I try to clean up it feels hopeless. I've organized the fridge and kitchen cabinets but that's such a small thing. My husband says we need to do small amounts a day. I agree but how many years will this take? I'm pregnant and due in June. I work full time and have ADHD and some days I get so depressed about all this. We live in a HCOL area so right now my bedroom is the living room, my closet is the laundry room. There are other closets in the house but they are packed with stuff. I can't have anyone over to the house. I just want a nice, clean home. But everything overwhelmes me. I want to disappear. Not sucicial but starting over with nothing sounds nice. My husband got the kids so many gifts for Christmas. I can't walk in my house. Help.
