seriously how do people have energy for things
-F
we took out... half the garbage
it took us the entire four-day weekend to gather up enough energy to do that
how the fuck do people do this regularly while alos having a 40-hour work week

severe executive function(?) difficulties
we're only barely able to keep on top of laundry enough to have something to wear each day
many days we can't even manage to take a proper shower
vacuuming is a once in a blue moon thing
we can't even use non-paper dishes because they'll end up in the sink for ages and then get thrown out when they go moldy because mysophobia means that moldy things, even after being cleaned of mold, aren't usable to us
we just
can't keep on like this

asking for help re: severe executive function(?) difficulties
i just
feel like we need to do something about this
but i don't know what, or how, or anything
we could really use some kind of advice, or at least knowing that someone is listening

re: asking for help re: severe executive function(?) difficulties
@packbat we started a little over a year ago, and are currently in the negative on accumulated time off due to taking a week off about two months ago that didn't really help at all

@Felthry *nods*
*hugs?*
do y'all have the income to, like, pay for laundry service or maid service? take some things off y'all's plate?

(also using disposable plates for executive function purposes is super valid - we're glad y'all're doing the thing that helps y'all)
re: asking for help re: severe executive function(?) difficulties
@packbat yeah we're trying to set that up and have been for months--sending emails and scheduling things is one of those things that requires a lot of Effort that we really can't spare
we have an initial visit this thursday though

@Felthry *offer hugs*
it sounds like y'all're really overwhelmed and it's really hard
when did y'all start the job? is it possible to take a week off? it really feels like y'all're having a bad time, especially lately
