Well done. It’s tough - I think there are people who don’t truly understand how much depression can derail you.

I like how there is a picture of the dog hanging on the wall, where he sits in the same position.

Thank you, you did a great job. Now there's finally enough space for me again on my favorite spot in our bed. xxx 🐶

Great job!!

One of the best feelings is when your animal comes back in & sleeps on your bed after leaving because of the mess

I am in the middle of a really bad patch of depression again. Been clinically depressed for 20years but this year am really struggling. My rooms like that and it's too overwhelming to do it, it takes every ounce of energy I have to just manage to get out of bed every day. Sounds vile but I haven't washed my hair in 2 weeks, I just feel completely drained. Welldone you did a great job, I know what a huge accomplishment it is, keep going x

I applaud this. Wow. I have deprestination as well. Very inspiring ❤️🩷

Can relate. So happy to see progress. It's the little things

Glad to see you found the dog.....

How satisfied were you afterwards?

Been there done that. Still going through that :(

Good job!

They found a dog under there?

Great job! Although I don't know you, but know that someone out here is super proud of you.

Found a puppy!

You found the dog

Can you spot the 10 differences between these pictures? It's not that easy...

Dang! I'm glad you were able to find the dog!

Wow this his wholesome. I would need this but I have a hard time let go my stuff so I have to sort it out by myself. It's constant work, it's exhausting, everyday there is more to do but with no energy after work... It's draining.... It helps to be a little less harsh to oneself and accept that there is still clutter and laundry and it could be worse.

NO WAY!!

Looks great!

Love the record player!!

truly beautifull

Some people would judge, you helped instead. In this particular case, my first movement was a judgmental thinking (something like "being a single parent is too hard, but it's too much neglecting"). But OP just helped, instead of judging. Wonderful people provide such lessons. That's a gift.

OP stated they got grandma’s permission and she appreciated their work. Also, a lot of this went into storage.

That's a Job well done!

I see cat. I upvote

You can dye your grout if its light colored to give more definition to your flooring.

Nice before and after!

Nice job! I hate it when the fridge makes fudge

Orange you glad your ex moved out?!

Last summer I had my classic car detailed by a proffesionel. Costs a arm and a leg but so worth it!

You’re doing it right now! 😉

Well done, you!

Indeed lovely, but very high maintenance.

You sure did!! 💪

Beautiful hammered copper sink! Also not cheap.

Wow, they had a pretty nice couch set under all that too.

Wow! Well done!

Very nice!

Such a beautiful room for storage?

I hope they wore masks... Clean out a chicken coop without is unhealthy for the lungs

Good god, looks like vomit.

but I do love the old patina too

🎉

Wait, how do you remove the glass panes?!

I always hope that after cleaning that it will stay this way and we just have to put everything in its place to keep it tidy.... But then everyday chaos hits us, piles go up and it's again so much work it's hard to start with....I hate this. I have a free day today. A day I should relax. I am now making laundry, dishes, the bed, putting stuff away and it's still so so much to do.... And with more than one person in the house the plan to keep it in one condition is always doomed in my experience. Everyone has a different sense of tidy, of where things should be stored, of energy to put things away....

Post breakup cleaning is so good for your mental health. You’re going to get through it.

Absolutely essential maintenence. At least check your dryer's lint filters today folks!

I looks as though there been some sort of incontinence competition held in there.

I wish you happy times! Room looks so much better

They showered in that?! I really hope they didn't take a bath!

same here!

Once upon a time, maybe 15-20 years ago, manufacturers were promoting cleaning products that had Teflon in them. The idea, supposedly was, that if you cleaned something like your bathtub with this product, it would lay down a film of Teflon and then dirt wouldn't stick to it. Well, they had part of that right: the product deposited a film of Teflon... that dirt bonded to like an alloy. When I moved into my current place over 15 years ago, it took three months of constant cleaning and scraping and scouring, and finally a drill bit brush attachment, to get that gunk off the bath tub and shower walls. I think that the EPA pulled all that stuff off the market, at least I hope they did because it's a dangerous compound, but if not, people, don't use that. Just don't.

I'm proud of you!

Looks like paint
