The ALL-YEAR-ROUND job of DECLUTTERING and CLEANING our homes is daunting. Especially for those of us who HOARD, or struggle with depression, and decisions, anxiety & other MI. I'm so challenged in this way so reaching out for support. Maybe start an Declutterers Army 💪

Re: SPRING-Clean Declutter - Need Help
I caught a "tomorrow" mention and thought it was yesterday @Former-Member ...... been a bit too crazy at my end to stay on top of everything even at my place .... but yes. I imagine it goes well beyond any particular day. I have several rememberance days in the year for my mum ...... but there are random reminders whenever and wherever regardless ...... but that is part and parcel of living rememberance.
It's not something you can declutter ..... but you article above shows how we try to fill the reality gap with "stuff" ...... I guess marking rememberance days is making room for particular stuff that is part of our living grief ..... making it count ..... making it matter .......
Hopefully that can help reduce the grief-clutter and channel the energy into new directions.

The images are beautiful @Faith-and-HopeFaith-and-Hope, thank you! I think I've made a lot of progress this last couple years. This is a hopefully a temporary setback & I'll bounce back strong enough to cope with Christmas and Australia Day...

Re: SPRING-Clean Declutter - Need Help
Sorry guys my entire post was removed because I had a picture of the bedroom im making progress decluttering, according to @candycane Moderator it breeches guidelines, the picture (which could simply be not approved rather thann deleting my very real dialogue which HURTS LIKE HELL moderator!!!). This happens to me every Sunday. Can someone please highlight & post the part of the forum guidelines this infringement applies to. I so often follow the complex links the offer when moderated and I can never figure out what they're on about. Its harassment. Please @Candycanw, canbyou repost my words without the picture today, it took me an hour to write and very relevant to this thread and the pain I'm desperately needing help with. @Faith-and-Hope, @Owlunar.@Appleblossom, @Ant7, @Adge, PLEASE HELP ME! Why do the moderators AND so many here hate me so much?

@Former-Member just wanting to let you know that no text was uploaded with the picture. There may have been a system glitch?. And as i mentioned in my email to you it breaches the anonymity guidelines in which we strive to keep SANE a place for people to post without being identified for your own security. I apologize for the hurt this may have caused you and want to reiterate that your posts are important and we value as a member. I encourage you to re-post without the picture.

I'm sorry @Former-Member I didn't get to see what you wrote.
It's really hard when there's a glitch & the words don't save or go through.
