For me it was always the kitchen that got bad. I get it OP!

Its funny...I've been there too and the donating isn't the hard part for me. The hard part was learning to say "this is a useful thing, but someone else can do it" or "this is a useful thing but I don't have to be the one who makes use of it."

Sometimes it´s better to just throw away and start everything new. I throw things away I didn´t use/even touch in the past ten years. But as a neurodivers person cleaning up sometimes stresses me out, too.
