Showing Original Post only (View all)Does anyone here have chaos in their environment? [View all]
My last sublet was roomy and beautiful, and I kept it up. Due to ongoing mental-health issues. And feeling drained constantly, my current apartment is messy and there are unpacked boxes around. Dust bunnies and fur around the baseboards. I do keep on top of the dishes and laundry.
The apt is a bit run down, and the area around the tub not grouted or waterproofed, so there's some recurring damage in that corner. I'm terrified of the lease not being renewed. I am grateful to have a place to live, however.
Anyone else struggle with a chaotic life , home, etc? I'm off work, so I should do more, then I feel guilty and worse.
Thanks for listening
