Having trouble

I'm so disappointed in myself! It's stupid really...
I can't seem to concentrate on anything, and I need to clean my house. Frankly, it's a WRECK. I start on one thing, and I see all the other things..and I get frustrated and confused, and angry, and exhausted..and I quit. I just don't feel like it...I know it probably stems from my past relationship with my perfectionist ex, and I'm rebelling..but I just can't get motivated and excited about a clean house! At first I thought it had something to do with the depression, and now I'm not sure. I feel so lazy, and mad at myself. I look around, and I see all that needs doing, and I just don't care. Any ideas on how to organize, and maybe find some motivation? HELP!

You've explained the problem accurately: overwhelmed. Try and stay on one item, telling yourself that's "all" you have to do. It's the only way I get anything done when overwhelmed.

Some things have to be put on the back burner. Some things will never be done. Try and take as many things off the list as possible... could be they are on their because of some "rule" of life.

I learned that linens don't have to be folded, the dishwasher doesn't have to be emptied of clean before you add dirty and run it again... stuff like that.
