Today's #neurodivergent challenge is trying to organize objects in my home without getting completely snowed in by epistemological problems of taxonomy. I am looking at these assorted objects and just going blank on if and how they relate to each other, and where they should be put away.

If this feels relatable and you have suggestions for how to get unstuck please let me know!

@AnarchoNeighbor Very first step, IMO, is to separate out the things that can and should be thrown away, then do that. Then I might try thinking about "what room does this get used in".

@AnarchoNeighbor Also try your very very best NOT to think that you have to get it all done. You don't. Congratulate yourself on every single object you manage to put away, instead of thinking of all the ones you didn't. This may sound daft, but it's the single most helpful thing I learned in therapy (despite thinking it was dumb toxic positivity at first).
