    Living at home with my mum who likes to call it her "comforting clutter" actually really impacts my mental and emotional health, and I wish she had more awareness of it. I'm trying to learn more about where it stems from, so thank you for explaining.

    The best thing ever happened to our family is decluttering/minimalism. We are on that journey for 4 years now, with 5 growing children is never ending process, but it's sooooo much more easier to keep up when we only have things we use.

    Oh Mia you did a phenomenal job explaining the psychology behind it! Other you tubers only touch on it. I do feel defeated by clutter even though I regularly sort things out and stopped buying and bringing stuff I to the house years ago. I am now downscaling to a minimalist level. During the pandemic I got an overwhelming feeling of “needing space” - physical, emotional, mental. I do not want to take care of so many things anymore and spend less time cleaning. I also have ADD and get frustrated by a messy environment. Have you heard of the “Silent to do list” by Fumio Sasaki? Please keep posting. I love your videos!

      @@MiaDanielle Fumio Sasaki is the author of the book Goodbye Things, in which he talks about the “silent to do list”. It is all of those projects, hobbies, repairs, maintenance that our possessions require of us such that even if they’re out of sight in a cupboard, we are aware that they are there and needing our attention. It’s particularly powerful for dealing with “fantasy self” ideals. I highly recommend it.

    Actually, the reason my home is such a bloody mess is because I work in private industry and every spare moment and the weekends for the past 2-3 years has been devoted to work so much so that I barely showered or even washed my face or did laundry. I had no longer cooked and just grabbed takeout, then went to my computer to get more paperwork done sometimes burning the midnight oil since many of us work remote. This is the reality for many people who work in private industry. Then, because California is an at-will contract state and when my company's task order had been completed with no more money left in the budget, I was recently laid off. I'm now into my second week of layoff. The first week I got sick and laid in bed exhausted and was knocked out from a bad cold which I'm still recovering from. Now, I am decluttering and taking care of all the disrepair which I hadn't been able to deal with due to lack of time. My work had been impeccable, but my home life wasn't. And the imbalance I blame all on the modern way of life with employers dumping more work on their employees rather than hire more people to assist with the work overload.

    Great information and comments here. I have a cluttered space and part of the reason for that is there's simply too many things to do and to think about --- and I'm tired. Still I can deliberately take blocks of time to tidy up and put things in their places as I go along. Space and time management are a help. --- I particularly like the part in the video in which it was mentioned the brain can focus on only one thing at a time. I don't know who said it, maybe Joshua Becker, but someone said that multi-tasking is really multi-distracting. It's not good for us. --- Yes. Children are affected by the clutter of the adults. I recall a "Hoarders" episode in which a man was hoarding while his wife's sister was encouraging a divorce; hurting rather than the helping the situation. Turns out the wife was a hoarder too and a big part of the clutter came from her. The couple had a son who was only three years old and the child was using a toy broom trying to bring some order to his environment. How sad!

      Same here but I’ve just been clearing my space - ie closet and certain rooms. My hubby is a bit messy for sure but there is very few things around that he began putting stuff away too in the drawers. I made it as easy to put away his shaver and shaving cream as it is to keep it out.
      Plus it takes me 5 seconds to throw it myself in. Ahhh clear counters

    I have been struggling with constant stress although no apparent reason, until now! My wife is a mess! And this is what has me bordering break down and i had a feeling but couldn't put my finger on it, now I know my feeling of dispair and outer stress was because of the constant clutter everywhere, never being able to find things where i put them, every time i want to do a project i have to spend 40 min. Looking for all the tool, etc. And my humor it's affected, literally i feel my hormones go off balance and with it thoughts that do not help. Thanks a lot for sharing this info, in this case it really helps, perhaps not to actually change anything, because i have proven she cannot change, at least I know i am not crazy for wanting to have a neat and organized space of living and not having trouble owning things but letting them go as soon as not in use or their usefulness has passed, i usually give away the stuff i do not use very quickly but even that is judged by neurotipical individuals as almost "crazy", not wanting to profit at every chance and instant is a major sin in out current day and age, perhaps also from there comes the difficulty of letting things go and over acquiring. Thanks

    How did you know I literally text a friend saying I was at breaking point. I cleared the lounge well the floor the other day for a tree that will clutter it even more soon. My family came home and in 24 hours it’s trashed. Stuff all over the floor and chairs. Every room in my house has piles and stuff that is around the edge and clutter everywhere. My family are so untidy too. I’m so over it.

However my bathroom has clothes all over it, the kitchen sink and counters are filled with dirty dishes, kitchen table filled with several projects. Work full time and am a single mom am very busy then spend weekend cleaning and being angry. How does this stop? Can't keep up. Exhausted and angry and feel sorry for my son.
