5 Secrets for Home Organizing Success

[@Seriously-though]

To me you're not RUDE, it's actually a breath of fresh air to have someone so real and open discussing a topic very fronu and center for many families. I wish you well with your journey working with ADHD. So, thank you for sharing! I

[@ncbeachbumintx]

agreed... I find her open and honest dialogue so refreshing in a world where most ppl try to act like they have every thing together... I doubt anyone actually does and certainly not all of the time. TFS

[@tats9707]

Medications can be a godsend when used properly. You are not alone! Talking to your doctor was the first step. I’m so glad you share your experiences. You help so many people!

[@couponville1]

Recently we had two celebrities take their own life. I want to say thank you for sharing your story. Because if it helps one person realize that they're not alone and lighten the stigma that attached with mental health issues. Thank you for taking the time to share your personal story on this platform. You're awesome. Keep up the good work.🤗😊

[@trinatyholzgen9661]

So great to hear that this squirrel (me) is not alone!! ADHD is difficult, especially when you are in denial that there is even a problem!! So happy that you took the steps needed to help make life better for you!! P.s. I've become OBSESSED with your channel and slowly but surely, with help from you, have started making my home a much more organized and beautiful place!!! Thank you 💚💛🧡

[@pinkshamrock5590]

My husband has been diagnosed with ADHD. He was put on Ritalin which helped him a little. Now he is on Aderall. WOW. He’s not grumpy anymore, he’s more loving, he’s more patient and he’s just exceptional in different aspects of his life. Because of this, we have a better marriage and his relationship with our children is so much better. They used to call him “grumpy daddy” and actually avoid him. Now they cannot wait until he gets home. Aderall is a miracle for our family. Maybe not for other families, but definitely ours. Thank you for sharing your voice in this. My husband thought it was a kids’ problem and not an adults’, therefore he would not seek help for years. By you sharing, you are going to help a lot of people. Thank you.

[@vanessastuller8121]

You are not alone! I have to take a med for ADHD. I can tell when I skip my medicine. It feels like someone threw all my papers up in the air and I have to try to pick them up and put it back in order. It is completely stressful to try to deal with my job as a Project Manager when I don't have my medicine. Good for you for addressing it! Good for you for taking care of yourself!

[@katw.9338]

Great analogy. I feel same way.!!!

[@Spangelaa]

I am new to your channel but I live for your end of video stories. I’m so proud of you for opening up so much! You have managed to bring order to my life and you are so relatable. Thankyou from the bottom of my heart x

[@EntertainmentByLaura]

This was so helpful! Macro is my new mantra! Thank you for being so honest and shining a light on your ADHD. These conversations need to be had so people can understand and also know they’re not alone.

[@ASTUTTS100]

We squirrels completely get what you are saying! Love the organizing tips! Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

[@kristydoucette7224]

You are SO not the only one! I recently started adhd meds too and had the exact same experience going without for a week. I didn’t know how much it was helping until I didn’t have it anymore. You’re right, it has been life changing!

[@brbootsman]

As a mom of a kiddo with ADHD thank you so much! The more we talk the sooner the end the stigma!

[@emilylewitt4421]

You’re a beautiful, lovely person and your channel inspires me. I own your book and love it. Thanks so much for all your content! This is the only cleaning/organizing channel I watch now.

[@debbie1483]

You are definitely NOT alone! I used to think I was. I was also officially diagnosed about 2-3 years ago and went on medication. I just wish I had done it sooner. It's not a cure all, but it helps! It took me a LONG time to admit I'm a perfectionist. How can I be perfect with all my clutter? Because I can't do anything unless I know I can finish it perfectly. I took your test again and I'm a BEE! I don't remember what I was the first time, but it didn't "feel" right, the Bee does. I bought your book too. Sorry to say, still on the shelf. I'm a work in progress. THANK YOU for all you do! I only wish I had found your channel years ago. Oh yea, can totally relate to the "glazed" looks. My sister sees it on me when her stories get a little long.........like a couple of mins. lol I'm sure others have too. (hanging head in shame) But getting better with help. :)

[@diamondcormier8266]

You're definitely not alone. Fellow squirrel here!

[@kathy3178]

Your videos are refreshing. I have a husband and child who have ADD. Watching you helps me to better understand how their minds work. Medication can be a wonderful thing. I am glad you found something to help you on your journey.

[@katwebster1986]

Hey Clutterbug! Thank you so much for your honesty about your hesitation with taking prescriptions. I don't have ADHD, but have been debating about taking pills for my anxiety disorder. I recently found your videos and they have made a huge impact in such a short time. I am definitely a bee with some cricket tendencies, living with some ladybugs and butterflies 😄 Told my mom that your organization type quiz should be a prerequisite for marriage 😄😄😄 Thank you!

[@sandyweirauch8310]

Just found you a few weeks ago and I’m enjoying your videos - been chipping away at the clutter and spending some quality time on house cleaning! Thank you! Next is ordering your book via Amazon. Oh, and I ALWAYS stay to the end of the video. Enjoy your humor and/or random thoughts. I have a grown daughter with ADHD; she was an adult before she received a diagnosis. So glad you shared. 💕

[@janaorganizesitall2997]

I nodded throughout all of the tips. I keep telling people the same things. They seem so simple once you know them and yet they can turn a person's home around. Great video!

[@teannafranklin8932]

I have adhd and can totally relate. I finally went into the doctor last year after my sister( who is adhd) and my RN manager kept telling me i needed to get tested for adhd ! It wasn’t until I went back to college and took an online class that I finally realized

[@wayfarinstranger2444]

PS Thank you for your wonderful organizing advice and I love you just the way you are!! Squirrel and all!!!

[@DonnaHarris3578]

I too have ADHD and I'm just living with it. I'm already on too many prescriptions I don't want any more. But what I really wanted to say is when I'm feeling down and out or depressed I get on you tube and you are the first person I look for. You never fail to cheer me up, entertain me and always inspire me! You are not rude. I totally understand that feeling of not really being interested in what someone is saying.

[@amyj8810]

You're fabulous, and totally not alone!

[@Lashlove16]

Thank you for sharing that it’s ok not to be Pinterest Perfect and that we all have different ways to organize. Thank you for sharing about your condition. Please share more of your journey!!!

[@ranikster9955]

I have ADD and struggle with organizing my home with limited space, but I have to say: I have learned so much from you in just a few days. I am becoming more and more open to the idea of keeping my home tidy and clean, as well as more capable, thanks to you. There's a butterfly 🦋 and a ladybug 🐞 inside me. It has give me hope and more self-acceptance

[@amycarlson4881]

Cas, I'm so happy to hear that you are benefitting from medication. I have anxiety/ depression and for a long time I tried to not use medication. After I had my second child, when I was still in the hospital, I told them I needed some extra help. I started medicine and I have found my dream job and been offered even more. It has truly made a profound positive change in my life and therefore also helped my family. I'm now the best I can be. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm so inspired by you!

[@tracigresham7164]

You're not alone & we understand! I have a brother & nephew the same & I understand. We love you for YOU!!!

[@athenaenergyshine7616]

I love watching you because you cater for everything and think about every situation.

[@alyb3366]

I take medication everyday for ADHD. It's like glasses for my brain!!

[@joyplatt2307]

Alyce Branham love this comment!

[@tats9707]

Perfect analogy!

[@brittanyjohnson6019]

Same! I love that “glasses for my brain” 😆

[@shelligeorge2512]

Love this

[@NichelleFitch]

For what it’s worth I don’t have ADHD and I find most small talk boring, too. One of my least favourite things that people say is, “isn’t this weather amazing?” It makes me feel I have to start being this fake version of myself or something. I am a very friendly person, but loathe forced conversation/relationships. WHY do people always have to talk talk talk? Quiet is ok!!! A smile and a hello is sufficient sometimes.

[@AmyAllways]

Are you by any chance an introvert?

[@NichelleFitch]

Always growing very much so.

[@miahi2356]

I love what you wrote! "Quiet is ok" THANK YOU!!!❤👏

[@miahi2356]

Your so pretty, love your profile pic❤

[@jackiem9460]

Some people may not be emotionally sensitive and be able to read what you are putting out. I love to 'talk, talk, talk' as long as it isn't about shallow things, but I can totally tell when someone doesn't want to talk. That is when you get one word answers to questions. PS...I'm a introvert too :)

[@AlanaBetts]

I love you Cass. You're a fresh of breath air and I love that you keep it real life. xxx

[@taraball1030]

My daughter was diagnosed with Adhd at 5 and I have always told her that "ADHD is what you have. Not who you are! " i commend you for going on meds and changing your life!!! Btw...it is squirrel life in my house everyday!! Lol.

[@emilyblythe4618]

I've been watching your videos for a while and it helps to have these ideas hammered in every now and again. I love my recycling/donate/out of my house center. We're trying to clean out our house (already had a huge garage sale) and I have paper shopping bags on a bookshelf. I can write what goes inside in Sharpie on the side (donate clothes, recycle broken electronics) and deal with it when the bag is full. I can also put a bag for things that go to my parent's house so as I find things I can put it in the bag and I don't realize I forgot it when I'm 2 hours away from my house.

[@bridgettwonder5386]

OMG!! Stitches by Julia led me over to your site. I will be eternally grateful to her and especially you!! I am a butterfly. I have struggled with “surface abuse” all of my life. I am also a mixed media artist and a teacher.; both of which require a lot of stuff!!! You have given me a path forward to have my home and life be as I want them to be! My husband is a lady bug with some cricket tendencies, and I do have some Bee tendencies. Therefore, I have felt he has hidden messes which are no better than my messes that are on display! He has been so stressed by my clutter. Yet our relationship and love is so great that we have been able to work around this for years. Now we can both have the home we want. You have developed the amazing way of helping me “visualize” (get the butterfly pun) how to move forward and give us both the type of organization and home we both need. In addition, we are finishing a detached garage that will be my art studio/classroom for my next career, teaching creativity in my own place. I will gladly send you before and after pics of our house and the building/creating of the studio garage if you would like. I am so excited to move forward with this. You have opened an entire new world for me. I am so grateful.

You’re such a lovely squirrel! ☺️💗

[@SuperKennedy7]

Agreed

[@mariehickman3581]

Bless you Cass, you are so up close and personal with us and it makes me so happy. I too have a disorder but it is a mental depression order. So I know a lot of what you are going through. You can make me smile which makes me feel some comfort inside. I truly do Love You and feel you are a GOD SEND to so many people. Thank You for all you share with us. I Love this video as all the rest. Take care and have a wonderful evening! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY! HUGGGGGS

[@rebeccanoriega3644]

Every time I heard your rants, I totally thought "This lady has to have ADD, these things happen all the time to people with ADD." I have ADD and I find having a diagnosis leads to solutions. I am grateful to my medication, it actually keeps my family safe. I'm not an over medicated child, I am an adult and my medication is one tool in my arsenal to conquer the day. I hope its like that for you.

[@Melissa-dd7ys]

Thank you Clutterbug!! Your videos convinced me to look into buying a Roomba. We don't have much extra money so $500 or more for a vacuum is way out of my price range. However, I found a used, refurbished Roomba 880 for $245 on eBay with free shipping! I am still learning how to use the lighthouses, but it can clean and clean quietly! We live in a second-floor apartment so I was worried about the noise for downstairs, but there was no need. By the way, you are awesome. Sidenote: I detest any stigma attached to mental illness or any treatment for it. Thank you for being so vocal about your ADHD. The comfort you show with it may help others discuss their own. I have depression, anxiety, and ADHD and have medications for each. I am on a cocktail of meds, but I have found a mix that allows me to be my best self. Based on my own experience I recommend open, honest communication with your doctor, and educating your self. Amazon has a ton of great books on ADHD. (I should know. I have a collection of them. lol)

[@findingaway5512]

Love the last tip about what works for you and your family. So true!!!

[@Sovereign.Alignment]

My absolute favorite part of your channel is the end of your videos! Love the real chats about life🌞

[@sarahdunsworth5851]

I'm so glad I found your channel yesterday. Makes me feel less alone in my issues with clutter (and feel like I can get better!)

[@patriciaferrari3781]

You are not alone! I feel as though you've been peeking into my brain!

[@marykay1707]

Oh Cass☺Hello from Germany again ❤❤ I looooove that you're sharing your experience with ADHD and especially with taking ritalin adult! When I tried medication first I felt like someone opened a window in a trap hole and let me peek out like "normal" people saw the world around them❤ and after DECADES of not beeing able to follow any conversation whatsoever I can FINALLY keep eye contact and RESPOND 😉😉😉 I wrote a book with my doctor about adult ADHD; only available in german though, but I know you would like it 😉😍 I love love love your channel and you did accomplish so much thru all the years, keep going 😊

[@Clutterbug]

I didn't notice a huge difference, but the people in my life did. I have more patience and I'm way less distracted. I still feel like me though! COngrats on the book!

[@isabellabihy8631]

Wow, congrats you can wait for a conversation to get more interesting and above all, that you can do eye contact. That's huge. I switch my attention off if a conversation I am listening to bores me and I cannot walk off. However, if I am the one being talked to and I switch off, the reactions I get are not really funny. My response to that is: "Please state your point clearly and not between a novel's worth sea of words. What do you want?" It helps, some. I can be exasperating.

[@dipseldrop]

Mary Kay what is the name of the book? And can I get it on Amazon.de oder Thalia als e-book? Ich weiss erst seit Januar dass ich ADHD habe.

[@Residentfoodieandhoarder]

You are such an inspiration! I NEEDED this video right now! I am in the middle of trying to do 100 days of organization and since my house is at, well....hoarder status, I am struggling 🙂 I'm going to get on the macro organizing now!!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

[@2plus2by2]

Meds were recommended for our son when he was 7, I agreed to try, not because I thought they would work, but to prove they wouldn't. I was wrong, it was transformational for him for 6 years. I've learned that everything IS worth a try. Im glad you tried.

[@beccaplans]

I have adhd too. Thank god for my medicine. You seem a little calmer than usual. Love the macro organize idea! Thanks!

[@TerryElisabeth]

Perfect organizing advice as usual! I love how you share about your experiences with ADHD. You're gonna help a lot of people! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@st.bedesurbanhomestead137]

LOVE THIS! Thank you for sharing. I am starting down the path to diagnoses and I have been hearing so much negativity. It was wonderful to hear one of my favourite youtubers talk about ADHD with positively and realism.

[@goldenretrievermom7945]

I love how you shared your ADHD diagnosis with the world. I am such an advocate of honesty on the internet that I made a video of it on my channel (long, but relevant I think). I've heard a lot of people say they feel alone or they hope they aren't alone, and you definitely aren't. Please know you are in good company :). Keep on organizing girl, I also loved your video!

[@SweeTart77kkibble]

You’re my favorite squirrel! I too have ADHD. I know EXACTLY how you feel about trying to stay focused on things like conversations and boring movies. I have Monkey Mind - swinging from this to that to this back to that. I took up knitting a few years back and found that by keeping my hands busy I can really focus on conversations and such. It totally worked for me. I don’t knit all the time, but pretty darn close to it. It’s a pretty easy thing to learn and once you get good at it, you don’t have to look at to too often, so people won’t think you’re NOT listening to them. Crochet works too. Try it!

[@D_Parks]

You definitely are NOT alone! 💕

[@kizzymccoy1]

I should come with a warning, "Easily distracted by shiny things" 😂 total squirrel. You're awesome!

[@sig9girl]

Fantastic tips, thank you for sharing! I’m a huge organizer, but I still watch videos on the subject. You showed me a trick I never thought of! The donation bin! I love learning something new! Thank you for sharing!

[@jules1011]

As a completely happy Butterfly 😂 your words on macro versus micro organization were so on point with me. I’ll never be a minimalist and now I no longer feel I’m a square peg in a round hole so a huge thank you! You’ve helped me so much!

[@nikihalbach9955]

Just love your content. I’m a cricket with a husband & 4 kids. I’d love to have a micro organized house but macro works great for my family & keeps me sane!! Thanks for sharing your gift of organizing & teaching. ❤️

[@brandybarnett9953]

These tips are on point. I’ve found when something is constantly not getting put away, I need to address its home. If the home is in the right place it gets put away.

[@vanoramoon674]

Your enthusiasm is so refreshing and a GREAT way to wake up in the morning. Love to watch your videos. Reminds me of some of the best teachers I had in school bringing happiness and a smile. I learn the most. Thank you for sharing your own personal challenges and happenings. Really helps and inspires. ADHD? Your experience has really helped me understand others and some of myself. We are not alone. No, no, no... you are not being rude. We all have physical annoyances we deal with and we have to love ourselves and others to deal with and bring healing. Thank you for all the work you do on these videos. I know this is a REAL job and YOU DO IT WELL, and the free helper links are really appreciated. Loving regards... 💕

[@oolivmod177]

We have remodeled our kitchen and you have inspired me to organize it when I put everything back !! Thanks I feel so organized and happy. At my last month of pregnancy I feel so good and relaxed thanks to you and your tips for organizing. Your amazing!! BTW it's not just you thinking they are boring... they just are lol

[@KarichokIsBack]

I love how you manage to set us free from some mental blockages with your tricks: macro organizing or cheat cleaning really help me every day :) Thank you so much ! About health issues, I'm more of an alternative therapies adept: chiropractic, nutrition, nutritional therapies, homeopathy, phytotherapy, treating our intestinal flora (microbiome or as often called "our second brain"). Good luck. Greetings from France

[@giocandaphillips23]

THAAAAAAANK YOU!!!!!!! YOU ARE AWESOME! Sharing your ADHD story has helped me tremendously and explains why you are by far my FAVORITE VLOGGER/ORGANIZER. I get you and you get me. Learning my organization style has HELPED ME SOOO MUCH. You are clear, concise and entertaining. Thank you for being so transparent and not one of these boring self absorbed vloggers that thinks I have 30mins to waste listening to them drone on with unnecessary details or take waay too long to get to the point. I look forward to more videos. All the best to you!

[@amy4421]

I looooove your tip on macro organizing. That's how my mind works. Everyone seems to focus on micro organizing.

[@heatheryohe8874]

You go girl!! Trying to better yourself 😊 I am so squirrel when trying to get anything done in my house! I just can't stay and do one room.. my mind starts going somewhere else and I leave and do that and then it happens again. No wonder I can not accomplish anything. Also I suffer from being frozen .. meaning when stuff gets to overwhelming I have a hard time just starting. I wish I could help that part. Getting started can be the hardest part

[@allysoncurran9907]

My doctor just prescribed me Ritalin about a week ago, and it's already changed my life. I feel like such a better mom. And I'm able to get things done. Hence the reason I came across your KZbin channel. I'm wanting to focus and getting my home in better shape. ☺️

[@lynnsalberg5647]

Thank you for sharing ! You will encourage others with ADHD. I have several family members with it and the meds help so much . You are the best!!!

[@HLTrds]

Yes I am the same way! Love knowing that I can relate!

[@TheFerralHousewife]

Just found you, love your take on things!!! The ADHD, squirrel syndrome (lmao) I am going through menopause and all of the sudden I can't focus, make a decision, or finish anything. My entire life I have been an Alpha female in a leadership role in a very high stress job and now I can't even do my job. It has created such a horrible situation and made me at times extremely depressed. I love that you addressed this in such a manner to assuage the stigma that goes along with taking medications for mental health issues! Right on girl! New subbie here!

[@1575bj]

😪😪😪😪I’ve been struggling with this same exact thing for so long!!! Exactly what you are describing. I’m the butt of family jokes and I’m a total loner-it’s sad. I think your message came to me at the exact right time and I’m going to see my doctor about medication! Thanks for sharing your personal experience!

[@prudydarling1]

Thank you so much for sharing. My son struggles with the same exact thing, and he is doing so much better on the medicine. He is a happy kiddo again. 😁

[@StoneWallFlower]

I’ve been following you since Malitose channel and before you mentioned your adhd I was just thinking how clear your ideas are and that youd seemed a lot more mellowed out in a good way! Glad it’s working for you! xx

[@saralopez5727]

Thank you for your videos. I really injoy watching them. I also injoy your comments at the end of your video's.

[@mvass294evr]

My daughter has ADHD and we were not sure if we wanted her on medication either. She is a much better person for it let me tell you. She didn't notice much of a difference at first, but, she like you, noticed more when she wasn't taking it than when she was. We tried several different ones before we decided on the one that worked best (and there are a lot out there so do whatever works best in your case. one is not better than the other if the one that works for you is different than what worked for someone else) My daughter also has generalized anxiety disorder and the medications can (and do in her case) make it worse. So with that being said, be on the lookout for this side effect. We still find it beneficial for her to be on the medication and to continue the medication while she is in school because it really has made a difference in her focus and has helped her to get through those really tough projects she never would have gotten through if she wasn't medicated. Stick with what works, just like organizing.

[@jene8336]

Thank you so much for your honest talk about ADHD ❤️

[@LovepinkMom]

Thank you so much for sharing about your ADHD! I think I might have squirrel habits, too! I laughed so hard at "looking for a nut they never buried!" I definitely have that sometimes!

[@karend4055]

I have your first book and bought it before I found your KZbin channel! I take the quiz once a year because depending on what I'm up to it seems to change. Last year I was mostly a butterfly. This year I'm strongly a cricket. I thing all the purging and organizing I have done things qte getting easier. My donation station fills quickly and I'm getting strict with myself. Using a little Marie Kondo and a lot of clutter bug. Thanks for all your helpful tips. My kitchen has been reorganized in ltmittle steps over the last year or two after every 4 month purge. I did a huge over haul earlier this month. And though I'm still going to the older places where I had the items first before I remember their new location the system is working much better. Ever since I started making all my meals and snacks at home from scratch my kitchen has been my main room. Except when I'm on my bed with cookbooks, magazines and note books for organization, to do and Meal planning lists strewn around(until bedtime). This is when making your bed in the morning is so helpful. Room looks cleaner and larger, it also gives me a cleaner surface to work with. I am so happy with the new more organized rooms and stress levels have decreased. The bathroom get redone periodically as there is repair work being done by the building management. I keep having to empty it all. Bins have become my BFF! There is still work to be done on this small one bedroom tiny apartment with very little storage. I will keep at it with your help and motivation. Also funds for dollar store binq. Every once in a while I go to The Storage Store for ideas and the occasional buy for something special or specific. Or to compare with something on amazon or get size ideas. Thank you so much.

[@megane11222]

OMG I NEEDED THIS TONIGHT. I cant put into words how bad I SUCK at organizing. Even when I attempt to,my husband comes home and redoes it in a way that makes so much more sense and he does it in a quarter of the time. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I have been working on my house,so these tips truly do help. I have a question,we live in a relatively small home,with a coat closet and a really weird sheet closet, I guess? But with so many kids and beds,where would you put your extra comforters? This is my BIGGEST struggle in my home. And have I mentioned we are actually the same person. 🤣🤣 I kid you not,I have never met anyone that reminds me of myself like you do. MINUS the fact you've learned to get your shit handled. I am squirreling ALL day that my house will offen times look worse at bedtime then when I started cleaning that morning. But I NEVER stop doing something. I stay busy chasing the damned squirrel all day,every day.😫😫🤣🤣 thanks again!!

[@djawnsjhilson218]

I've seen people say store that persons bed sheets in that persons room and same with towels if they have their own. Try storing the sheet set in the pillowcase that comes with it. People have said under the bed, under the mattress, under the pillow. I also like those affordable ottoman cubes with the storage space built in. Adds extra seating too. Kids really like them.

[@basicallybecca7613]

LOVE your honesty!!! You are such a breath of fresh air and I’m so glad I found you. Keep on keepin it real girl! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Once again I want to say I love that you are so real and amazing !!! Best of luck on your journey !

[@griselleisara3799]

Thanks for being transparent with us

[@andreacosta3727]

You are amazing! I started to look for suggestions and ways to finally deal with my piles of paper everywhere in my house - I'm an EFL teacher and teach from home - and there you were, KZbin recommended you to me, so I'm a messed up cricket, and I will definitely consider some macro-organization! Regarding the "squirrel syndrome", the world today has been diagnosed with it, there is an awesome video of professor Ken Robinson about Changing Education Paradigms that was a wake-up call to me and some of my students who thought they needed medication. Dear Ladybug, you've got the answer: love ❤ and sharing! You do a whole lot more to others than you can possibly imagine, I hope you feel the love in return! Love from Brazil!

[@johnna7407]

Yes, I have "squirrel syndrome" too, diagnosed as an adult. I resisted medication for a while, but gave in when life got even messier and harder. I can tell that your speech has even slowed down by half. That was one of the first things my therapist told me about myself after he had diagnosed me and I started on the meds, so that's something I notice in other people. I do not think you rude, but probably because I relate to you and don't want to think of myself as rude either! Ha! Well done, thank you for your honest feedback on life!

Hi mamita, I am so proud of you for sharing this, you are absolutely right there is a stigma. Thank you so much for encouraging others to get help. 😘😘😘

Is there such a thing as adult ADHD? I have seriously thought so many times that I would have something like this..... My mind just does NOT shut off.... and it never stays on one track!!! I feel like a magician .... I can carry on NUMEROUS conversations at once in my head! WOW, thank you, at least I'm not alone?

[@katw.9338]

Yes... For sure ADHD in adults is real for sure. My mom 77.yr... I'm 51. Yr. My daughter 22. My nephew 27. Yes we all have it and learn tips to overcome struggles. It is real and can be very frustrating.

I also suffer from these symptoms when my thyroid is hyper. I run between hyper and hypo constantly and when I'm hyper I have racing thoughts, jittery feelings, can't sleep........ when I'm medicated properly it's like a whole new world of sanity.

Yes, there is adult adhd, usually you’ve probably have had symptoms your entire life. I’ve always been easily distracted as a kid and although I tried to improve the symptoms as an adult, I got diagnosed in my late 20s. I think a lot of women may feel stigma about having adhd and feel like they aren’t measuring up to the idea that they should be organized and “have it together”, but I’ve found things that work for me. Also, I was initially against medication, but as she pointed out in this vid those closest to me have seen positive changes. I’ve also seem to be more productive and less mental distractions.

So glad you are a more sane hot mess. 🤣 Great tips. My husband and I will be empty nesters in the fall and I'm trying to slowly get my house in order. I Love to watch you organize someone's disorganized home. Do more of those please.

When I need motivation in cleaning I always search for your videos.Luv u😘

That's great, I'm so happy for you! I was totally armchair diagnosing you as I watched your (extremely helpful) videos - one squirrel can recognize another! I've been taking ADHD meds for 6 months. It's such a relief not to have to try so hard at life while being way more effective, and I now have the focus to try to get the house under control. I love your tips, you make SO MUCH sense to me.

Perfect timing. I just joined a 30-day decluttering challenge group yesterday. Shared this video this morning. :)

I love your videos!! And having a home where we have two families with two very different styles has helped so much in being able to talk to each other!!

It's 3:23am and I woke worrying about how I have to empty the car out and clear a walking path on the bedroom floor. this was EXACTLY what I needed to see!!! your ADHD vid needs it's own vid. my husband takes ritalin. fantastic!

[@purplemoon8637]

I really love your candidness!

[@gloriannerusate3731]

You got me with tip #2- I often put things off because I think it should be perfect Thanks for your advice!

[@redwhiteblue4]

I just found your videos today. I've been watching them for a few hours and I have laughed until I've cried. You are so funny and a great storyteller. I look forward to watching all your videos. Now, on a note about the ADHD, my 13 year old son was diagnosed a couple of years ago and he started taking the medicine and it has helped him tremendously. It being hereditary, I'm sure my husband and I also have some form of it. Anyway, I'm glad the medicine is helping you feel better.

Hello fellow Canadian 🇨🇦 I’m a fairly new subscriber and I just love your channel. You have such great tips, and I just love your sense or humour, passion and honesty. My son has severe ADHD and has been taking Biphentin for years. It has changed his life (for the better). Good for you for giving meds a shot, and I’m glad they are helping 💗
