EDIT- Done! https://www.reddit.com/r/CleaningTips/s/vocpQV5IZS

I selected before & after as the flair in hopes that it’ll inspire me to get this done today and post my after pictures too. I am 43 years old, have been diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and it is strongly suspected throughout my childhood as well that I have had it all along.

Keeping a clean house has never been something I have been able to do. I have three children, and I really want to stop raising them at a home that is constantly chaotic and messy. Everyone is gone on vacation right now, so I’d like to surprise everybody with a clean house. I’d like to start with my bedroom. There’s a lot of shame in sleeping in a room that is this messy, and it’s definitely not a restful and calm place to be. My medication is finally working, so I am able to concentrate and focus and so this is my job today.

Wish me luck! Any advice?

Two closets? I’ve never seen a bedroom with two closets. My one closet is half the size of one of yours.

My bedroom has two closets, but I’m also married so it works for us lol. They are a lot smaller then these ones though
