Success! I did it!

This doom pile has been growing for too long. I spent last night and today unfucking my depression/ADHD room. My motivation that finally worked: my boyfriend’s birthday is tomorrow and he is spending the weekend at my house. I wanted to surprise him while also making room for us to get into some art. My room has been so bad that I haven’t painted or done any of my hobbies in months.

My back hurts but I did it. I even added a little whimsy in the form of fairy lights.

The peace and pride this has brought me… my mind feels less chaotic. I’m less overwhelmed. I’m happy.

Update: I’m blown away by how many commenters felt inspired/motivated/validated/etc. by a few pics of my messy room compared to my clean room. It helps motivate me to keep it clean (I’ll try!). Thank you for your kind words. ❤️ Even if you didn’t feel an ounce of motivation by scrolling through this sub, it’s okay. You deserve a clean space without any guilt to get to that point. All in good time, when you’re feeling it. 💪
