I'm pretty sure that apart from OCD sufferers, many people here will have issues with clutter taking over during times of low mental energy. I just wondered, does anybody else have a problem with one particular room? I was a terrible hoarder but I can give almost anything away now - wedding dress went to charity, even some of my more ancient writing scraps have gone, I must have taken hundreds of bags to charity over the years. But my bedroom remains a tip.

I have decluttered it thoroughly several times and always think, "All I need to do now is keep it this way!" But it always reverts... I have a small house and can still get rid of a bit more, but... this has to be psychological I think. Any ideas, anybody? I'm planning to tackle it tomorrow (have put it off four times so far) and feel a literal physical lethargy come over me at the mere thought, although I can wash, polish, sweep for hours everywhere else. It is like a paralysis of the soul. Surely it can't just be me!
