How to Clean a Room When You're Feeling Depressed

I second doing small tasks with something else in the background. Sometimes I just do one thing (like move one piece of paper or fold one article of clothing). Break down tasks as small as possible and celebrate your progress.

give yourself small tasks like cleaning one corner of a room, picking up clothes, putting dishes away. listen to music/podcasts, have tv on in the background, or have a youtube video on your phone in your hand. even if it makes the process twice as long it's better than not doing it at all
