Depressed mom

[Blue505]

Me and my two kids just moved into our new home we just bought. And now our house looks like a Horders house. Didn't realize on how much stuff we had till we moved, and it's very Overwhelming. The house came furnished and now just figuring out where everything goes is harder than we think. I just want to donate it all. And on top of that my brother and son didn't put things up from outside and it rained like crazy so everything is wet an thrown in my shed. I'm not mad but my Depression sunk in bad because now I have to wash everything single thing including my daughters stuff animals. Not sure on how to sink all this in. On top of that it snowed like crazy an ya we moved up in the Mountains ha now make it all worse ugh.

You’re not a hoarder. 😁 Hoarders are people who are living in fifth and stepping on clothes etc. You just need to be organized and moving can be overwhelming because you moved into a furnished place. Just take one room a step at a time.

Sorry you have to wash a lot of stuff but you’ll feel better once that’s done.

It will be fine and you can handle this! Stay strong!

❤️❤️❤️

Doesn't all have to be done at once.. Make a list of things to do for one day at a time and cross them off as you them. If I could, I'd come and help!

I know the feeling! I don’t have a garage to put things, just a tiny shed. I started cleaning it out and found that the rats had taken it over, so I took most out. Now it’s all sitting in my driveway to look at everyday when I get home. With the time change, it’s dark by then. I feel like I need a hazmat suit to get the rest of the stuff out. I have zero help. I just wish I had the energy to get it done but month after month I just can’t do it. I would pay a bunch of teenage boys to come do it for me, but where do I find that??? Ugh. I wish my 22 year old son would help, but he works 6 days a week and has a 1 year old. I keep telling myself it will get done, just do a little at a time, but I literally just can’t even begin .. sigh..

Awe. I know the feeling It gets dark quick now and it sucks. It's hard to get outside and get to the shed for me because it's so dang cold we moved to the Mountains and burr lol. We got alot done in the living room and hallway. Just taking it day by day. We would help if we lived close.

It's so hard being a single mom with no support, even if it's just to help with simple things. Ive had an old mattress in my spare bedroom that needs thrown out but I can't get it down the stairs by myself, and the piano I bought my daughter for her birthday in September is still in the garage where the movers left it (even though they were paid to move it into my living room). Just know you're not alone!!!
