- Time lapse starts 0:47
For my whole life it’s been a struggle for me to keep my room clean/organize, so much to the point that this is my first time doing it by myself. For anyone with the same struggle I really recommend doing a time lapse or taking a picture after everyday. It really helps because the first 3 days it didn’t really look like anything happened in person.
I will be doing a closet clean out video soon. I’m gonna be going through and getting rid of 10 years worth of clothes.
This channel won’t just be cleaning I want to make fun videos as well. Stay tuned...
;)
* I will be starting a advice podcast for people struggling with healthy habits, cleaning, keeping tidy and all things mental health where people who are also struggling can connect and help each other grow. i have unfortunately not had success with medications and doctors and sometimes it helps to hear what has worked for people dealing with the same issues. whether you were born with your problems or trauma, a breakup, or life just got in the way, i want to create a place where we can normalize what we are going through and the reality of mental health and what it can look like by having a cumulative goal of being better and getting healthier. Email Joybellpeppers1@gmail.com with your story and situation, how you think you got there and what you've been diagnosed with, you can also include a picture or video of your situation. all will be anonymous and in the comment people with the same things can give advice on what worked for them. this is not just for cleaning tips and hack it's for all things attached to your mental health. I will be releasing new videos on the 1st of October 2022.
My son's room got like this when he was around 17. He didn't want me to go in there but it was obviously too overwhelming for him to tackle. Then he went away for a week. Finally I had to take action. Cleared up, redecorated into a cool space, painted furniture, new blinds and light fittings. When I picked him up I didn't say a word. Just waited until he went upstairs and all I could hear was "No way ......No way". It was an amazing moment for both of us. Next day he said it had been like staying in a hotel. Love him. Now he's the opposite, a complete neat freak & I'm the untidy one! 😃
That is so kind of you! I'm sure he was so grateful!
Awasome mom
That's awesome ❤️
you are an awesome mom!
Awwww 🤩
There is something terribly therapeutic about filling a garbage bag and throwing it away. It's just so satisfying! Hope you are doing ok. You did a ton of work!
I suffer from depression and anxiety (Clinically diagnosed) and I feel so too...throwin away/donatin clutter/ unwanted stuff kind of clears off mental webs as well.Dont know how or if it is related at all
Me too I hope she’s okay :) I’m glad she’s doing this for herself
Throwing away full garbage bags actually gives me anxiety because I know that all that plastic and garbage is probably going to end up in a landfill or in the ocean somewhere.
@@cartergirl3of3 Me too that s why I try to recycle everything.
@@sadia2395 i feel you. I was diagnosed with MDD 2 years ago. Since then, I tried so many things to make me feel better. I started learning crochet, i tried new recipes not only new recipes but i would try doing them from scratch. And as I am getting and feeling better, i started to exercise again and for the past month i've started cleaning up my house. Yeah.. it's satisfying to see all those garbage being thrown away as if i am throwing away this sickness out of me. I'm not done yet but i will definitely win this battle someday. I hope you're doing ok and making good progress. 😊
Depression is one of the most evil insidious mental illnesses I've ever encountered. And the people who not only battle with it but overcome it are amazing. I've dealt with it myself and have fought the desire to unalive myself too.
This video is so important and hey I hope you feel so much better for it!
stop. just stop with the depression shit. her room got like this because she chose not to clean it. lol, stop saying it’s depression’s fault. if they have energy and happiness to get food and go shopping and make a big mess, then they have time to fucking clean it. She never fucking said she was suffering from depression either, literally just shut the fuck up bruh .
@@uhhsamaria9885 somebody obviously doesn’t have depression
Absolutely.... my current situation
@@uhhsamaria9885 just say you don’t understand the effects of depression lol
@Camille. its crazy because I literally started doing this about a week ago...
Why do people overlook the fact that so many people’s rooms look like this because of lack of motivation, and it takes a lot of guts to post something like this. Proud of you
they should've had the discipline to throw away or atleast fold their trash not the "motivation"
@@monicacavero1163 Hey sometimes it gets rought. I personally havent gotten to that point but when your really down it can be tough
@@monicacavero1163You got lucky to not have problems hard enough to lead to that situation. My room never looked like this, it's always super tidy. However I have empathy and i recognise that many times people simply cannot clean their rooms not because of laziness or lack of discipline, but because of mental health issues. So be human for once and show compassion.
No way😅
Imagine this then taking a shower and lying in bed after a hard days works cleaning 😍
Thisssssss
Best feeling ever!
Yesss
That me when I clean or redo my room and I’m nine sooo ya
but shaving your legs while in the shower, then cool fresh sheets to snuggle into. It's like giving yourself a gift, f'reals.
I love that peoole have learned to respect these kinds of videos for what they are. These used to get so much hate when people first started. The amount of guts it takes to out yourself on a situation like this then actively fix it to an audience is just inspiring. I've had messy rooms that were cleaned by the grace of a motivational video such as this. It's not only entertaining but it's useful too.
My room has only ever looked like this because of depression I had no motivation for anything anymore so when I see a video like this I feel like I should just be respectful because I have no clue what they are going through or their situation and it’s not my place to judge anyone

You are so right!!!! Some are so depressed they need this vlog. It so overwhelming to start. God bless.
Thank you for posting this. I found it so motivational. I used to be an extremely tidy neat freak, but when I began to suffer from depression a few years ago I really started slacking on keeping up with certain things. This gave me the inspiration to get up and do a deep clean of my house today. Thank you
How are you now? 🤗
I love how nice people are being about this. I feel that it’s so easy to jump to conclusions, seeing people be more understanding is a breath of fresh air.
I can’t even imagine how amazing you felt afterwards
Saw
i could never have the energy to clean
yas
Probably sore and tired lol
Is it bad That I'm happy to see someone has a messier room than me 😂💀
*time lapse* me in real life when my mom says she's gonna reach home by 10 mins
🤣💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hahahahaha, can relate this so much!!
Facts 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for shearing this! Having depression isn't easy, but depressed people tend to blame theirselves for not getting the easiest things done. This helped me really to realise that I'm not alone with this and its okay to get help from the 'outside' via your video
8 months pregnant and due in 20 days! This is great inspiration to get my room ready and cleaned for me when I get done and to tackle getting my baby's stuff ready for when she comes. I usually seek motivation because of how tiring it is to do things now a days I mean even bending down takes the breath out of me but videos like these get me really motivated and now my room is clean and baby stuff is as ready as it can be to we get closer to the due date! Thank you so much
How is your baby doing?
I got severe depression when I was 11, my room looked like this for quite a few years, when I was 12 ants infested my bed and I just slept next to them cause I didn‘t want to take food off my bed since it was the only way I would eat. Then I did this when I was about 14/15, just got rid of so much shit cause it accumulated in my room over literally my whole life, and ever since I‘ve stayed relatively tidy. I got into the habit of keeping organized, not buying things I don‘t really need or don‘t have the space for (so for example if I really want some new clothes I‘ll get rid of old stuff), and trying to just put stuff away immediately when I‘m done using it. My room still gets cluttered quite often but I‘m way quicker to clean it up, at the very least once a week but if I‘m doing well it‘ll always be tidy. Even though I was still suicidal till I was medicated late last year (at 20 years old) this method worked well for me for a while. If I don‘t have too much stuff in the first place then I won‘t have an opportunity to let it build up. Also to anyone who‘s suffering like this now, I feel your pain so much and I wish you the best and I hope you get the help you need
My heart went out to you when I read that. I hope things are improving for you.
I hear you....
That is really a tremendous accomplishment you overcame and continue to work on. That is truly impressive, keep up the great work🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻
Jesus saved me and can save you too. He is real and the answer to all of life’s troubles. praise God 🙏😭
@@isaachartmann8285 Provide proof.
This helped me . Thank you for posting this. I'm 8 weeks pregnant with hyperemesis gravidarum and I have been so sick that it put me into a depression. I didnt do dishes for over 2 weeks. After watching this I got up and put a load in the dishwasher. It doesnt sound like much to some people but when you're hurled over the toilet vomiting 24/7 dishes are the last thing you want to do. Good job and thank you again
That's a big accomplishment 👏 don't let anyone make you feel otherwise!
The hormones may not help either. Hang in there and best wishes to you!
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😐🤔🤔😅😪😀😎😎👍التقليل
Wow that sounds terrible. Great job doing a load of dishes! I commend you!
@@paigespalding3257 One step at a time! It motivates to do more! W, 03/10/2021
Tips: clean it every night right before you go to bed that way it only takes 5 minutes or so, also make sure that everything is in a spot where it is easy to access so it’s also easy to put away, or else you may stop putting it back. But great job!! I bet you felt amazing after this clean :)
let’s realize this isn’t a choice. we don’t choose to let our rooms get this way. it’s a byproduct of depression
or laziness
I have depression but i couldn't ever let a room get like this. Don't confuse depression for laziness and grossness
I have depression AND anxiety, so the messiness would cause me anxiety and the depression wouldn’t let me do anything about the mess. Luckily, I’ve conquered my depression (once again) and would never ever let myself live in such disarray. Several nights a week, I make a list of what I want to accomplish the next day, such as laundry, empty the dishwasher, vacuum, clean the patio, plant seeds for the garden. Writing them all down not only gets them out of my head, but also reassures me that I won’t forget to do something, because forgetting would cause stress. Lists and plans make life easier for me.
good for you guys who “can’t let it get this way” despite having depression. guess what depression is different for everyone. especially major depressive disorder or bipolar disorder, some people can’t even get out of bed for DAYS. do some research and realize that every mental disorder affects everyone differently.
@@medicatedlibra9126 why you so mad lmao? None of us were even dicks about it “good for you” shut up lmfao
Bless you, people don’t recognize depression they just criticize!
Val Pikus yes depression builds up !
indeed. i was suicidal a couple years back and without even realizing, my house would get so dirty & my mind would completely walk past it like it didn’t exist. i mean my mind as well felt as though i shouldn’t either but yes it plays a big factor. after i fought hard for those thoughts to vanish, i started cleaning my house. . .i started to see everything around me gain its purpose and color. i realized how long i had been gone. . .my kids needed me. and that’s all i truly had the strength for.
@@dejanae7336 you are ok now?
@@luizamartinelli_ oh yes, i’m okay now. 🤍
@@dejanae7336 happy for you
this hits close to home, and i’m so proud of you for tackling it! i still remember when my dad came to pick me up from my mom’s house and found my room in a total state of disrepair. i was thirteen and horribly depressed. you could not see the carpet, and i still had a rat cage sitting there, even after my pet rats had been dead and buried for several months. he refused to ignore it and helped me spend the next three hours cleaning it. while he was not as kind or sympathetic as he probably should have been, given the circumstances, i now realize that he was already worried for my mental health as it was, and the scene had probably given him flashbacks to my maternal grandmother’s house (she was a hoarder, Gd rest her soul). at the time it was rough, but i remember stepping back with him and realizing that my room was hospitable again. my dad is not a perfect man, but his brand of tough love was what my depression addled brain needed. and at the end of the day, he was right there beside me, helping me pick through the mess. thank you for sharing! you did very well.
❤️❤️
omgg this is such a lovable story, the kind way you see your dad and his choice to help you back there
I think it's so fascinating how you can learn so much about a person just by looking at what's in their room
I just renovated and cleaned old things out of my room. It was sooooo much. I added storage bins and shelves and gave my room a new theme. I’m so happy and I feel so much better emotionally. This is the most organized my room has ever been. Get your home in order, and the rest will follow! Depression is a real thing! 💯❤️
As someone who has found themselves sleeping on the living room floor because there was literally no other surface to sleep on.. thank you for posting this. I hate looking for cleaning inspiration and all I can find is clean homes that need a 5 minute quick clean.. Like no I gotta CLEAN.
It's amazing to see it get done because I know first hand how hard it is to clean that.
👏👏👏👏👏 Seriously, amazing job.
What's with the thumbs down??? Really?
Also, you gotta tidy up and declutter. This is something the video shows very nicely. Lots of people with messy apartments just have too much stuff, also garbage, lying around that just needs to leave the apartment before it can be tidied.
It’s been two weeks and I hope got made some progress if not, don’t worry, slow and steady wins the race!
Start one room at a time, small sections at a time. I like starting with garbage and then collecting all the dirty clothes into one pile and working my way through. After you get through that you should be able to conglomerate one pile of dirty clothes throughout rooms any then take any dirty dishes and start putting things away.
Take breaks and drink water! ❤️
Hey noelle checking in
You can do it!!
The strength it must’ve taken to muster up to clean all that..... just to look at it is overwhelming....whew. Sometimes just getting out of bed to brush my teeth seems like I’m about to enter a marathon.
When I first clicked on the video I said damn, I’m a little triggered (my bedroom has looked like this plenty of times) ThenI thought, maybe she’s depressed. Had no idea until I read the comments that that is in fact true.
I know about this all too well. “She’s” that thing that invites herself into your life when you didn’t ask for her company, puts her feet all on your coffee table, won’t throw away her trash. The plates just stare at you like “well we’ll just gonna have to live here together then”.
Then one day I sporadically got some energy and by the end of the three day adventure, my floor said “hi, remember me?”
I related to this “clean with me” video so much because, well it was deeper than just cleaning up a junky room. It was kind of triggering and also therapeutic.
Hope you are doing well. It’s very easy for spaces to return like they once were. I hope your room still looks the way it did at the end of this video and if it doesn’t, it’s okay...... press on
✌🏾&💜
So well put. I hope you're doing well!
Yes to all this! At first I was like how? Then self said, umm sis look around. Depression is a mofo. This video is very encouraging.
Wow, I'm so proud of you! That must have been really really hard to do, both physically and mentally. I get depressed a lot and my room tends to get very messy. This is inspired me to do some work on it. Thank you! 🤟
thank you so much for showing the reality of how life can look sometimes. for years ive managed to keep my house somewhat in order but my bedroom always looks exactly like this. watching this video has given me the confidence to finally tackle it.
I love that you threw away and got rid of stuff instead of just trying to find it a “home”. That never works because it goes right back to how it was!
The responsibility of “finding a home” for something sets off my procrastination tendencies and then I just move the pile/bag around a few times to remind myself to get to it but I never do. So I got in the habit of just tossing it. Take away the guilt of someone else could use it, and toss it 💗
I have a rule, if I take a thing and think a little too long about do i need it or not -> I MUST THROW IT AWAY
I don't regret any of it, if you need something you threw away long ago you can always find some alternative :3
sometimes it's worth it to save things. maybe i don't have any use for it now, but a couple months later i need it. happens all the time lol. this trend of getting rid of everything you dont use regularly and buying new if u end up needing it really isn't sustainable
If you already know home shelters near your house, it's always good to give those things that are in good conditions right away.
My room has literally been like yours at the beginning of the video for 3 years. I've been living in a constant state of paranoia, depression, and I have been suffering with my PTSD. I'm moving out of my mom's soon, so I'm finding motivation from this video. I haven't been able to feel motivated to clean in such a long time. However, I know I absolutely have to get it done eventually.
@Miruku Their very valid, If you have anything to say abt this comment, Dont. You dont know what they've been through, So shut your mouth next time buddy🤨
@Miruku I can also See you been giving attitude to others on their comments/videos. Just be quiet, No one wants to hear you :) And if you tell me to be quiet, I will not. Im standing up for this person
Is there anyone close to you that can help, sometimes interaction can give a new outlook to life. 🙏🏼
@Miruku did somebody ask for your opinion?
[Update] I've since moved from my mom's, and I've been much happier and more organized!☺️
Best bedroom cleaning video I've seen. Others talk and narrate and the cleaning is like a few light clothes sprinkled on the floor with drawers opened to make it look worse than it actually is. I take my hat off to you for being so real and putting this online coz this is the reality of a messy room. Even if they dont admit it. Room looks great 💖
thank you for helping other people with depression, ocd hoarding, autism, adhd and chronic illness etc by posting this 💗
my comment was going to say “how do you live like that” until i looked over my shoulder and realized mine is no better. I’m 9 months pregnant and the last 2-3 months of my pregnancy made me so depressed that i just stopped caring about how my room looked. plus i don’t have the energy to clean. Just goes to show that we are quick to judge other people when we too are no better. My room isn’t as cluttered but it’s messy enough to take some hours to fully clean. You did good !
Awww people who stop themselves from judging are so rare. I applaud your kindness, I hope your delivering goes painless inchaalah 🥰💕
Oo and I forgot to say. Mental health awareness is important. Do take care of yourself, if you can't now do it after the labour. I have all faith in you ♥️
@@sweetcoffee2458 awh thank you 🙏🏾
@@kaonashi3584 it ended in an emergency C section but me and my baby are ok! Thank you so much
@@destinycabryle7455 i‘m so glad to hear that, congratulations!! 😍
I applaud you for being so transparent! My daughter has trouble keeping her room tidy as well. One tip is to set a daily alarm for the same time each evening before bed. Then set a timer for 10 mins and straighten your room. Basically put everything back in its proper place. You’ll be surprised how much you can accomplish in 10 minutes and more than likely it won’t take the entire 10 to complete. You’ll feel accomplished and your room will be much easier to maintain. Hope this is helpful 🥰
I get so depressed sometimes that I just don't care. I take my meds when the alarm goes off though so I want to try your alarm trick for putting stuff away. Thank you for the suggestion
@@erinjohnson7504 It's a really good trick. I usually give myself a set time to clean something/anything. Once that timer goes off, I stop so I don't end up in spiral. It's something my previous therapist suggested I do because I'd clean for hours (I'd fixate really bad on a stain or something).
@@HisSnuggleBear18 we've tried it the last few nights and it makes me feel like I'm actually getting something done even if it's just a few minutes at a time
I tell my teen that same thing but not ten minutes I say 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Her room is pretty much spotless. 2 minutes really does make a difference
Thank you this tip is great! I struggle with mental health issues and my room can be a disaster I’m currently cleaning my room and this tip will for sure help me in the future!
I am jealous and amazed at how good she is at cleaning ✨
The fact that you were able to actually get yourself to clean is something I admire. I’ve been moved into my apartment for almost a month now and my clothes have just been Latin ton my floor. I have yet to hang them up. This is making me feel better and reminding me that I CAN do it. Proud of u for doing such a big task
Depression is extremely serious!
Honestly i can't even imagine how it feels...what kind of thoughts cross your mind every second....this video hitted me hard....Hats off to all the survivors! May god bless you all💫💙
As someone with depression being able to see your room floor again makes me feel something I haven't felt in a long time. I'm a lot better now, I send you the best of wishes you absolute *CHAMP*
It’s called hope and inspiration
If you ever think that cleaning your house is a boring task, timelapsing yourself doing it is SOOOO satisfying. It's so fun to watch afterward!! I did this a couple days ago and i got so much clean!
There is nothing more satisfying than watching a floor slowly but surely start to reveal itself, and then once everything is finally put away, vacuuming/mopping is the cherry on top *chefs kiss*
Ok now for the MOST IMPORTANT question
Where did that Sombrero end up???
i was thinking the same thing
@@konstanz92 I followed it throughout the whole video It was fun ;)
under the bed i believe was the last i saw it!
min 9:41 just keep an eye and you will see
Sameee
I thought I had terrible messes before.....that was overwhelming....a whole week!😅
At least you kept it real on how long it took you to clean it up. Nice job
Wow, you did amazing! The peak of my depression was in a time before CZcams and for a very long time, I thought I was the only one that lived like this. I could not even take care of basic things like brushing my teeth or showering. You just can’t understand it, if you haven’t been through it.
This gives me so much hope. The state of my room has always depended on my mental state. Even when I was little I had a hard time cleaning up my room. I recently decided to start slowly cleaning it up and see if that helps improve things for me. This has given me the motivation to continue at slowly making my way into having a cleaned up room I can manage once again. Way to go! And for anyone who doesn’t understand this please be kind. If you have never had to experience this than I am very happy for you just know everyone manifests mental health in a different way.
When my depression gets in the way of cleaning, I start doing it in steps. One day I set the clock for 5 min and then starts cleaning and stops when the 5 min are done. The next day I set the clock for 10 min. The next 15 min. Whenever I feel the task is to big, I go back a step. So if I did 10 min the day before and I had a shitty day today, I only do 10 min as well instead of 15 min.
Another cleaning step I do is taking the cleaning in categories. One day I will put away all the cloths. Next day I focus on the dishes and so on.
Great advice!
I think I'll try this method.
that's a really... short amount of time to get any cleaning done imo
Ooooh! Thanks for this advice!! Going to start this today.
@@inactiveluka Yes, it really is. But it works for me. And you get a little bit of cleaning done every day instead of buliding it up and get anxiety over it! BUT like I said, it works for me. That doesn't mean it works for everyone, it's just a tip!😊
I started to judge but caught myself. This was my first time watching any video of yours and I couldn’t believe the mess and food on the bed, etc. But I told myself there is more to the story and that things happen and I shouldn’t judge people. I was then able to enjoy the video and I saw your reply to a comment that said this was gross and I didn’t know mental health was a factor. I now went from starting to judge to starting to relate. My place was a mess when I first moved in, and It did get worse from shopping, but I never connected it to maybe me having mental health issues that need checking. So thank you for sharing and I hope you forgive me. Looking forward to the next video.
Feels good to see healthy and honest comments here

Becky...you are being transparent & therefore...wonderful. Keep on fighting the good fight!!
God, my room used to look like this constantly until I was about 22. Cleaning it was always so overwhelming. Now I mostly manage to confine it to the kitchen, but going in there can be terrifying if I let it get out of control. Well done, that must have been a task! 🙂
No matter how messed up your life is, you can always make it squeaky clean! A great metaphor for life!
Thank you for sharing this! I have major depressive disorder and my bedroom is my nesting spot. I have a severe block about cleaning it because of mental abuse from my ex. I appreciate you being strong enough to allow us to see this I would cringe for someone to see my room. It’s motivating to see you do this please keep sharing your journey.
This comment means a lot. I am gonna keep posting stuff like this because one day when my life is where I want it to be mentally and just overall. I want to see how far I’ve come.
Same here! She's so brave for this.
Covid has taught us that even those of us that don't have ongoing mental health issues can fall in to sadness, despair, depression etc and at these times we would never want someone to see our severely messy apartments or homes for fear of judgement. It is hard to have friends over when society/commercials dictate one's home must always be spotless.
It's been a month but I truly hope you are doing better Tiana. Keep up the fight!
Shit happens in life! The important thing is that you finally did it. Good for you and I hope you sleep well in your clean bedroom.
Exactly! Mahalo, you said just what I was gonna say. ✨
Great job!! It went from looking like a Hot Mess to organized. No need to buy expensive storage containers when cardboard boxes work well under the bed. I did not see any clothes hung up in the closet. Just everything put in trash bags. Perhaps you can incorporate that in your future video's. Other than that, Job well done.
I did this when a family member was moving to Arizona, and my goodness, it felt so good to have a clean space. Now with my somewhat cleaner space, I'm gonna keep cleaning and organizing, eventually getting to decorating and everything.
The amazing ability of human mind to bounce back from hurdles. A good clean start is the solution!✨ Thank you for motivating us to clean.
Re: preventing mess from building up. I have a practice I call "seeing the job through". Basically, once you complete an activity you do the cleanup related to that activity to finish the job off. Having a shower? Dirty clothes go straight into the laundry hamper/basket. Eating or drinking something? Take the crockery & cutlery straight to the kitchen after you're finished, wash them up & leave them to drain. Doing hair/makeup? Put away your tools and supplies as soon as you're done. The idea is to build the cleanup necessary after an activity into doing that activity itself so it becomes automatic. Of course you won't always have time or motivation (I catch myself thinking "I'll do it later" or "It's too much trouble"), but the few times you do do it & notice the difference may be enough to help you stick to the cleanup. I feel that undone jobs take on a life of their own, weighing on my mind & making me feel like a failure (my current state re: my garden). But even a little effort & some results make me feel better about myself.
Anyway, if you've made it this far thanks for reading my essay. Hope this helps 🙂
TheSabadine i love this
Ikr.... It actually helps... Last time my mom would bug me then one day I gotta clean it up cause I got sick...
Now that I'm grown up in college I see how important it is....
TheSabadine easy for you. Incredibly difficult for many others including me. If you don't have depression or whatever this is, you cannot understand. But I am so happy for you.
@@debbieescobar6267 I didn't make any assumptions about the OP's background, only offered a method that works for me. It may well work for others...or not. But it doesn't hurt to put it out there. That's something I learned from my own experience with depression and anxiety, and from participating in a mental health support group.
TheSabadine excellent! Kudos for reaching out for help. Sounds like you are serious about putting into practice what you have learned. I wasn't trying to be nasty; sorry if it came out that way.
Good for you, I used to be really messy until I was in my early to mid 20’s. I finally realized how much easier and happier life can be when you have a clean and organized space. It’s one less area in your life that can create chaos.
This!!! Life is so much better when things are organized. My depression made me so unorganized, and the lack of organization made me more depressed. It was a cycle! Now, cleaning up, organizing, throwing stuff, and donating makes things 100% better.
@Lacey this ain't "oh whoops I'm messy", this is crippling depression. It took a lot of strength to clean the room
@@lauram7929 I wasn’t trying to minimize any possible mental health this person is dealing with, and to be fair, you don’t know their mental health status either. I was just saying that for me personally, it’s a vicious cycle. Your space is a mess, so your mind is a mess. You can’t find things, which then makes you late and disorganized. I struggle with anxiety and it gets 10 times worse when my space is in disarray.
After moving into my house, I never unpacked anything, then it just grew into horribleness- I got depressed and was always home alone due to COVID. I never did any of my school assignments, I just sat on my bed all day and ate food and throw stuff on my floor. It was horrible and every time I tried to clean I always stopped. I’m so proud of you! And I’m glad you finally got to cleaning your room. It’s a big step
Hey, this video got posted like a year ago, so I am kind of late to the party, but I just wanted to say how amazingly proud I am of you for tackling such a huge huge job. I watch these videos as motivation and it all seemed so overwhelming but seeing your time lapse made it all seem so doable so thankyou so much
watching this made me feel so good because this is how my room used to be and I used to always get shit for it and called lazy and unhygienic, but it wasn't like I did it on purpose i just couldn't get myself clean it up easily. Thanks for the video❤️❤️
I have depression and my apartment is a wreck as well. My office is almost this bad, the other rooms are more livable. Nothing is company-ready by any means. That's actually why I'm here, I'm attempting to motivate myself to clean.
Just do it at once, I never motivate myself to clean my messy room but when I tried to clean up any one mess I ended up cleaning the whole room.
Yes it will be tiring but at least I have a space when I can do painting or doing yoga.
I hope you are ok tho, I also have this crippling depression but somehow still survive till today ❤️
I keep my fingers crossed for you🥰
Thank God these videos are on internet.They just give inspiration for other people to clean their house
Wow. I'm amazed how focused and organized you are when you clean. I'm less messy but I'm always lost when I beed to clean the whole apartment.
Every second of this video was satisfying. In case no one has told you yet. We are all with you. Please keep posting!
I have that issue as well and it took my sister to clean up my room. When you have mental health issues that deter you from that “ get up and go “ spirit , it really messes with you. My advice, just stay consistent with the cleanliness that you accomplish. You don’t want to revert to where you was and you want to go to that next step on where you want to be. Look at this video, from time to time , & give yourself a pat on the back because you came a long way ☺️☺️☺️😉...
Well said Lucinda...blessings
How do you stay consistent? Is there a good proven daily+weekly regimen for single full time workers?
@@endtimestruthrevelation1407 hmm i think small stuff like washing ur dish right after ur done or throwing ur trash away in the can or even just sticking stuff back where it goes when ur done is a great place to start ! after that regular clean ups of stuff that didn't get put away like anywhere from every 2 weeks to every other day ! that way it doesn't get nearly as dirty as usual and you dont feel less motivated bc theres so much to do. whatever floats ur boat or whatever is easiest for u :)
@@tooniesz8140 thank you so much, i appreciate you taking time to help me! And i dont watch anime anymore, but the character design of your pic is cute. Reminds me of when i used to watch K-On! May i ask if you believe in an afterlife?
It's nice to watch others finally find the energy & courage to deal with their homes. Totally appreciate this more than those perfect homes getting cleaned with a mircofiber each day. Great job!!
I love this video so much This video has touched my heart. ❤ I'm glad that I'm not dealing with this alone. Seeing your accomplishment gave me so much motivation and power to get up and get to work. Thank you for sharing this video with all of us. I love how the majority of the comments are so kind and respectful. That's so heart warming to see. ❤❤❤No one is perfect on this earth and the quicker people realize that. The world could be a whole lot better then what it currently is.
Having less stuff will make your life much more pleasurable. Staying on top of clutter will give you more time to do the things you most enjoy. Job well done, I hope the best for you.
But then some people go: Declutter, less stuff, despair: I need this item, rebuy, too little space, mess, despair, feeling overwhelmed, declutter...
Girl, you are awesome. When I got the first glimpse of bedroom floor, I cheered.
I have lived with depression for over 45 years. I frequently measure how bad an episode has been by the amount of time it takes to do a thorough tidy and clean of my house when I start to feel better. As I have gotten older I have learned ways to manage my mental health, but there are occasions when it becomes so overwhelming that nothing works and I just have to ride it out and then do the clean up afterwards.
Thank you for being so very brave and putting yourself out in the CZcams world where many people are ready to judge without understanding.
Looking forward to seeing more videos from you.
My god, this is like never ending, how did she sort out needed and not required items!? How did she find out things in first places from the pile 🤥 hats off to the patience level!
I've been in this horrible cycle lately of trying to get work done but being so distracted by my messy room and unending list of chores that I try to tackle all of them but I never finish, then I don't get work done so then I try to do work in a dirty environment and nothing ever gets done. This kinda motivates me to just take the whole day, so nothing but cleanup, and then hopefully everything will follow after 💖
This time laps means everything to me. It shows that i can do this too. Taking time is okay. Doing step by step is okay. A little is still a progress. Hehehe thanks 😊
i know this video has been published like 7 months ago, buuuut i still wanted to comment that i‘m super proud of you and that i had a big smile on my face at the end 🌈
I have chronic pain and this hits home. Little "corners" of things start to take over the space. I can barely get on my knees (surgery) or bend down (injury) to do the hard stuff, so I know. The key for me was to get a strong shredder and go thru my receipts every month. Then, I got those command hooks for the walls, better than hammering a nail in the wall, and placed things above me. My closet is busted since the sliding rack is rusted and I can't really fix it, so one side is stuffed while the other side is empty. I do a little at a time and hope for the best, it's really hard. Things like this inspire me. I can only do a day, then take two days off or I'm wiped out stiff in pain. I might take before and after pics on my phone to motivate me. Hang in there!
One thing that really helps me when I get into this mode of being too depressed to clean is that a while ago, I did a purge of my belongings. Anything I wasn’t using, I have to goodwill. And having less stuff has helped me stay in the mindset of putting things away even when I am depressed. Each thing has a place. Then once every quarter, my husband and I take a day to go through our closets, etc. And do a mini purge or what we r no longer using.
I do realize that there will be days when this doesn’t work. But on the days you feel like you have the motivation, having less to put away does help.
Dealing with depression and anxiety and I can say my house looks like this. I’m not proud of it but you have inspired me to take baby steps and clean it. Thank you!
now I wanna clean my whole house.
Great job doing your first solo clean! It can be so daunting but you stayed strong and powered through it 🥳
My room gets bad as well. Whenever my mental health gets bad (which is often as I have mental health issues) my room also gets messy. Something that helps me is to have someone to keep me accountable. So, on sundays my sister and i will both clean our rooms. This way, there’s someone who’s also relying on me to do my room. And so I can’t slack off. I also try not to eat in my room (though I’m not good at not eating in there lol) because old food/drinks give me hella anxiety. Proud of you for getting your space together!! I know it can be really hard
I agree with the no food in the bedroom.
Do some yoga practice ur mental health issues will be solved
Also, what often helps is a PLAN! Not just "tidy room", which often overwhelms, but "collect garbage, put everything into categories, store on bed, tidy shelves, place items from bed on shelves, declutter one shelf, put everything still on the bed into boxes (with category labels), declutter shelf and boxes, get rid of everything that has not space in the room or in other storage units (basement, attic etc.). Find sources of untidiness! Do you buy too many things from one category (shoes, books, decorative items)? Take a day a month to declutter these items constantly! Do you really have too little shelf space? Buy another shelf! Do you feel to tired to tidy up after work or school? Find a designated time to tidy every morning or one afternoon/ evening a week. Etc. It is often not lack of willingness, but lack of knowledge about systematic tidying/ cleaning.
biased 👍💕🏆👏. Be proud! And don’t forget, your honesty is inspiring others in need of your encouraging story and your courage! ❤️
Congratulations on a job well done you inspire me to continue cleaning my space. Videos like these are a big help.
Thank you
I just know it felt so good to wake up in a clean house after this. I love the waking up after deep cleaning and remembering that I actually did it. Great job girly
I grew up sharing a room with my sister. You could tell which side was mine because it looked like a landfill and her side was neat and organized. It would have been such a help if it had been known about ADD and depression in kids and what the overt signs (incredibly messy living space, chronic disorganization, extreme irritability mixed with withdrawal and social isolation, etc.) were. Instead there was condemnation and pity, shame and actual abuse. You keep doing what you're doing as I see the signs of someone coping the best she can and I support your efforts to share and grow and make friends!
I cleaned my depression room 2-3 years ago. It was so bad that you could'nt see the floor. My room is big, but you could only go a little path trough. It took 2 months to clean but it was worth it. I'm depression free since 1 year. Its still bad from that time but now i'm fine and trying to clean it again. And i know that i can do it 💪
me in my manic phase after being in a depressed one
THIS
NO BECAUSE THIS
YO
My golden rule is: If you don't need a particular thing for a year, you should throw it away. Otherwise, it will clutter your home. Putting things in boxes and stacking them in a closet doesn't help either. If you put something you will most probably never need again in a closet or even in a box, get rid of it. That's what works for me. The fewer things, the happier a person.
What about a fire extinguisher 🥴😳
What about my grandma's ashes???
Emma Joy solid point
@@emmajoy4511 Honey not to judge or anything as this is a very personal issue of course, but my grandmas ashes would be the last thing I would want to keep in my house. When my mother and my grandmother died I did a lovely trip to the beach with my husband and let their ashes go in the wind at a lovely sunset there. It was my way of liberating those energies. Their souls where no longer in those ashes...they are certainly in heaven as they were both very good people. So keeping a loved one ashes is just a way to keep conected to their body because the soul is no longer there...and to me that was sad, it reminded me of their passing instead of letting me remember the lifetime that we shared and their love!
@@sandravasquez7628 Im not trying to judge you either and i understand where your coming from and I see your point but if it's a tradition in my family to keep your loved ones ashes and respect their wishes of being at home with their loveds ones then I will do so ya know...but everyone is different and if their wish was to take their ashes somewhere else than I will respect that also.
My room was so so bad during a heavy depression and cleaning so much is sooo exhausting and takes so much strength
Respect!!
I watch these to motivate myself to clean my room 😁 I’ve been putting it off for a couple months now. It’s exactly why I’m constantly overwhelmed and stressed. Once I finally clean it I’ll have a clear mind.
I’m so glad someone finally post something real I can relate to this it’s so hard when your going through a lot to even get the motivation to clean anything and some people will never understand it but they should not criticize what they don’t understand this is good someone is posting this it’s making other people who have these problems feel better and motivates them some
Oh my gosh this felt so satisfying to watch!! I also have a tip for you! Stay in one spot and work your way around. Going all over the place makes it feel more stressful! 😊
This is a really great tip but personally whenever my room gets like this i like peeling back the layers one at a time, like clothing-trash-dishes, but I have a really small room so this might just apply to me 🙂
You did such an amazing job and sticking with it would have been incredibly difficult. Well done. I know you'll feel so comfortable in your nice, clean new space. I was an extremely messy person until I broke up with my ex boyfriend and moved into my own apartment with my cat. I got back on my antidepressants right around that time and now my place is pretty much always neat. I can't stand messes in my space anymore. I wake up to my room tidy, my laundry washed and put away, my toilet and shower clean, my dishes done, my throw blankets folded, and my carpets more or less spotless (cat does not like to help me with that particular endeavor. The only thing that's really messy is the kitty toys in the living room. 😊
A huge help with this is getting rid of anything you haven't needed/used in a very long time and space saving techniques. If everything has a place, it's much easier to put things away. I have three inch tall, long totes that slide under my bed next to my collapsible laundry basket, plastic filing drawers in my closet, two chests between the foot of my bed and the wall, etc. As you replace broken/old items, look for ones that offer more convenience. Kitchen utensils that can hang from command hooks, a magnetic knife strip, a wicker basket you can hang from your bathroom wall for wash cloths, vacuum seal bags for long term linen storage, designate spots in your fridge for certain types of food and do a quick check every week for things that need to be eaten/cooked quickly or thrown out, etc.
Good job! I love the quick floor mop w/ your socks. lol I do that too! The trick is not to make the mess in the first place. Always touch it once. Put things back when you're done using them. Mama drilled that in my head! God bless and stay safe. Way to go!
this is what depression looks like.
Not always, when I was suicidal, I obsessively cleaned everything.
@@deathskeleton you
@@zonixailokn What?
@@deathskeleton ಠ_ʖಠ it is obvious
@@deathskeleton while that was you, I kinda relate. I was also suicidal and I worked to distract myself, but my home did look like this video. I think it’s different for everyone but it’s mostly people feel unmotivated to do anything and just lay in bed overthinking. (I’m not depressed anymore and I’m very happy and grateful for my life) ❤️
Amazing transformation! The only thing I would suggest is that you seriously downsize the amount of stuff you have, be ruthless, go through everything, keep only what you need/love - it makes the process of cleaning up SO much faster, and not nearly so overwhelming. Also picking up and cleaning the end of each day is a must!
As someone with ADHD, this is how my brain looks like and it is nearly impossible to organize. There are always so many thoughts trying to be noticed all at once and my brain gets cluttered. Also I am so proud of myself because yesterday I cleaned my room (which looked a lot like this) in a record time, 2 hours and 34 minutes! Great job BTW! I couldn't imagine doing that.
As someone who struggles with depression and it's super hard for me to clean sometimes I have come up with a way to keep things clean... and I also have a routine where I catogorize everything like I look at a room and I will see the clothes, trash, or dishes and then I work on that category. I'll pick up all the trash, then I'll move to dishes, then clothes, ect.
wow am so proud of you cleaned up that room all by yourself without any help some people CAN DO BAD BY THEIR SELVES but some people need a little boost of help for a friend or family member
This reminded me of when my landlord gave me six weeks to clean my place or get evicted. I had a 2br apt that looked very similar to this. It literally took 6 weeks of daily work to get it in order. At the end of 6 weeks it wasn't as clean as your room, but he could clearly see how hard I worked and let me stay for seversl more years. It changed my life! Great job. I still struggle years later with not being a clutter bug, but I never stop trying. I hope you keep trying to. One thing that I found helpful was actually watching what people with clean homes do on a daily basis. For example I didn't think about dusting books until I saw someone doing that. It seems obvious, but you don't know what you don't know! Anyway, I'm super happy for you and proud of the work you did! I hope you are still going at it!
To even get started on this mess is a huge achievement well done!
I like how you didn’t cut corners and organized everything nicely. You treat your stuff nicely. Good job!
I hope you are seeking professional help! And dont ever be ashamed of it! My dad waited a bit long unfortunately. After so many years of having his house in similar condition it deteriorated to the point it was unlivable! Keep posting videos of your journey it could motivate many others!🙏🏽
Depression, my sister has it and this is what her room looks like.
No not like that...When our surroundings clean we also have a better vibes through a cleaned home...its my opinion but I dont know about ur sisters condition...sorry
never expect anything accept everything exactly and her sister has depression so she doesn’t have to motivation to clean it
Depression, been THERE
I am also depressed..but I am the opposite..I freak out if I feel something down to my legs.. I have 5 kids..I always argue with my husband,please vacuum the rooms if I am cooking or doing something else..it was worse when I was young and 1 child, I use to have a routine..vacuum 5 times, cleaning the windows 5 time, wc 5 times per day..but now with 5 children I barely i am doing 2 time's per day the cleaning..sometimes at 2-3 o'clock in the night i feel the need to clean the wc, kitchen..and sometimes I doet, sometimes I am just crying because I just take so many times from the time to spend with my children because I am so tired..but anyways everyone has they on issues in life..
@@leanaiulia2860 5 kids amazing 😍...dont worry dear after their grown up you feel I'm very luckiest mom in the world...they are ur proud children...keep one maid for atleast cleaning vessels n mopping the floor...for few years...becoz ur health is more important for ur children n husband its ur family u only responsible for them...
I love this. Been there, done that. It feels refreshing to have a clean room after it being really messy.
I still struggle to continue to stay clean and organized.
What I do is, I start with making my bed every morning when I get up. The days that I do that, I find are also the days that I make sure my room is tidy before I go to bed. I don’t always keep up with it, but when I do, my room stays clean and organized.
This video's really motivating for those who need this, and the process is similar to when I help fix my family's rooms too !
Like the throwing expired things, actual trash, etc; then sorting everything into subcategories, and taking out what I might not need/want anymore, to donate; then making bigger categories for them and designating places for it
Tho maybe not have placed a bedsheet immediately when still cleaning stuff around the bed ? Unless you were sleepin on it between takes, then yea that makes sense now
Happy on you for taking the energy to fix all this, damn !
I understand this so well, it's hard to keep things organized especially with executive disfunction or add, my house gets close to this at times. I'm glad you worked up the courage and motivation to get this done especially since it was days at a time, Good Job!
It's just now almost noon and all morning I've been trying to convince myself to clean my room and organize it. I've been putting it off for a good month now and I just can't get the motivation. Then this video popped up and I feel like I got this. So now is the time
One thing to look forward to......finding things you forgot about, and even knowing where things are again. It took me moving apartments in order to organize, but I love knowing exactly where something is now (versus either NOT knowing....or knowing it is in a general corner of a room!). You can do it. Take baby steps. On day 1 of being overwhelmed, all I organized was my purse! But it was VERY rewarding to be able to find things! So it motivated me to other baby steps. I am sending you "happy-happy-joy-joy" thoughts to help you along!
it just makes me so happy to see someone tackle their room/guest room.
Clean, clear room and white bedsheet at the end is so satisfying.
You are brave to post this and it takes courage to do the work you have done. You are an inspiration.❤️
