Hi Crook. I have found de cluttering projects quite satisfying and restorative (lowering stress) in the past. It sounds like you have a great plan.
Daonnachd makes a point that they can be signs of oncoming hypo/mania or even trigger some, but they don't have to be. Pacing oneself is a safe strategy. Give yourself breaks. For me, I find focusing on one (or max two) projects works better than trying to do too many different things at the same time.
I am away right now (at times stressful in its own right) but also had numerous projects before we left. I also have numerous upon return. I'm doing OK. I had and have a good strategy to keep myself as level as possible. What won't help is for me to become manic.
