If you’ve got time to ponder the futility of human existence you’ve got time to clean.
My ADHD brain can’t focus well on cleaning unless I get that weird hyperfocus on it. Last time I got it it lasted a couple days and I got a Lotta things done. It was nice.
Please tell us how to get there 🙏
Don’t clean for months
Ok now what
Ok now think of a clean house + an opportunity to discover once cherished treasures
Ah yes, turn the important but not urgent task into an important and urgent task ! But it’s a balancing act to keep it below the “overwhelming task feels impossible so let’s just ignore it” threshold
Doing something physical is so much healthier than doing nothing. It’s not just an illusion, it can really help people to get back on track.
Yeah, usually if I get stuck in my head I’ll just go work in the garden. Bit of sunshine and toil usually gets me unstuck.
Shitty life pro-tips
But it works 🙈
That’s one version of Camus’ “Image sisyphus happy”
Another interpretation is “Arbeit macht frei”.
Bruuuder, wtf
Heh Nazis
Ahh you will have a clean room! Win win!
What’s the point? Now my room is clean… Why am I even still here?
I need to move out of this box of sardines but because of medical bills and house prices I can’t.
What is the point?
Sorry… You guys caught me on a very bad day mentally and I can’t even clean to get this shit out of my head.
Can you… go for a walk/run or something?
Went for a 40 mile bike ride and a 10 mile walk. Cleaned my room, kissed my daughters good night. And yet I’m still here wondering wtf im doing
Sorry to hear that, my friend. Hang in there, ok? Don’t do anything sudden.
I would help you if I could but I am mentally in a similar situation.
I remember this episode of Malcolm in the Middle
“Look! Blood on my knees!”
In my experience exhaustion makes the dread spiral worse
Some of those wikihow are hilarious 😂
