Unpack your Past, Embrace your Future
As a child, did you...
- Live in a home marked by clutter, disorganization, and/or unsanitary conditions?
- Struggle with keeping the “family secret," or suffer isolation because of it?” (For instance, avoiding having friends over?)
- Get into trouble for discarding items, or cleaning your bedroom/common areas at home?
As an adult, do you...
- Suffer from “doorbell dread,” or feel anxiety when hosting company (even if the house is clean?)
- Fall behind on the little things and feel completely overwhelmed trying to catch up?
- Start projects with enthusiasm, but lose steam mid-way or become distracted?
- Wonder why it's so easy for other people to get a handle on things, or ask yourself, "What's wrong with me?"
Do you...
- Daydream about a neat home, clean home and organized daily life?
- Want to enjoy the sense of calm that comes from loving your living space?
- Look for home routines that work for you without triggering overwhelm?
- Need some help to master the skills to make a positive, permanent change in your home?
If so? You’re not alone, and you aren’t to blame.
The truth is, the challenges of growing up in a hoarding environment can follow Adult Children of Hoarders (ACoH) their entire lives. Those that grow up in adverse environments often have lifelong struggles with organization, planning, emotional regulation, and tidiness.
You weren’t given the tools in childhood that would prepare you for success as an adult. Living in a hoarding environment may even change your brain development and your executive functioning.
Most importantly: You are not defined by your past.
Even if you’ve tried and failed to “get your act together” or “be a better housekeeper” in the past, you can absolutely learn new skills and routines that can change your life and bring you peace in your home.
I have been down this road, and through research and introspection, have made changes to my mindset and habits that have given me freedom from the shame, frustration, and anxiety of clutter and disorganization.
