I am in Australia, and I had an NDIS cleaner. she used to come once a week and my house was mostly pretty clean. I lost her, and now I have to apparently do the cleaning myself. I really am incapable of doing it. They told me that I am physically capable of doing it, so i have to do it. I can't do it. My house is a fucking mess. stupid government. Anyone have any suggestions? Like to get over the executive dysfunction crap? I tried habitica, and it worked for a short while, but now I'm back to chronic ED.

thanks.

Inviting people regularly over worked pretty well for me, like hosting a weekly game night. I don't have the energy to do so while working unfortunately, so my place is also a complete mess right now. Calling someone to have a body double while cleaning or doing other tasks also helps. Hope you figure something out!

    thankfully i live in govt housing, so house inspections are only once a year. which is good and bad. if they were more often, I'd be FORCED to clean or get kicked out. but it's also good, because i can't clean. Might see if my support workers will help me every so often.
