Hyperfixation on Cleaning: A Common Symptom of Depression?

@theo.sophical I'm the opposite, if I'm reminded or told to do anything I'm de motivated, if I decide to do something on my own I'm un stop able, for a small amount of time that is

@theo.sophical i personally dont see it as a problem. Tasks like that that appear small to neurotypicals can be seen as huge ones for us. I do the same thing. I have like so much laundry to do currently its not even funny. I still have to hang up from when in washed them months ago, I have a pile on my floor that I pick certain items from that I deem "clean-enough" to wear out in public, and my laundry basket is literally overflowing onto the ground. Finding the energy to deal with it is really hard most days, but I like to think of myself being one step closer to actually getting it done if I at least acknowledge its something I should probably do sometime during my free time
