I am a 23 year old who lives in a two bedroom apartment with my two dogs. Growing up my guardians has issues with hoarding and now I do too. My apartment is disgusting and I feel so overwhelmed. I'm constantly afraid my apartment comlex will do a walk through and take away my dogs and evict me. I work full time and by the time I get home I'm so exhausted I can't make myself clean anything. I don't know where to start and feel so hopeless. I already looked at the national resources and they couldn't find anything in my state. I don't know what to do but I'm tired of feeling suffocated. This shouldn't be my life 🙁

Some easy start ideas

Clean the bathroom mirror.
Wash some dishes in the kitchen.

Put a big black trash bag and a copier paper sized box out. The bag is for trash, the box for old books, magazines, newspaper etc.

Spend 5 minutes after you get home clearing out something for those containers.

Go through the refrigerator and throw away the old stuff.
Throw out outdated food items.
Throw out outdated medicine and toiletries.

Put something in the complex dumpster every week.
