Struggling with Dishes: Anyone Else?

Yup lmao. I had a pile in my room that I took out yesterday and I dropped a glass on the floor :( it broke

You’re not alone! I don’t even mind doing dishes, but they still pile up in my house. I find that the demand of thinking about doing the whole lot of them just makes me avoid them more, so I’ve tried breaking it down to just putting away some dishes or even organizing the pile. These things may not work for you, but at least trying to do one small thing like washing one fork is helpful to tackle it. You can do this! Also, if you live with other people or can even have someone come over, asking for help to take care of that is a perfectly acceptable thing to do. We all need help from time to time. No shame in that!

Yes!!! Thank u!!!! I was just telling my therapist about how I literally can’t do anything right and how I feel like there’s more that’s seriously wrong with me and my brain wiring other than current diagnosis bc I just feel so alone in my struggles. I have so so much trouble with basic stuff like putting away clothes/doing laundry/school work/making appointments with my many specialists who I REALLY need to see/& keeping my bedroom clean even though I hate it messy. I have so many dishes on my bed right now and my parents are always pissed at me bc of it. I really appreciate this post :) 💜 thank you!

i just clean mine right after i’m done using them or done eating bc otherwise i won’t do it

Mostly, anyone i clean for has a sink full anything that has been used since i was last there and a giant mound of laundry same thing.

Me lol
