Garrett, from one maximalist on the spectrum to another, I have a serious tip for you: FLOATING SHELVES and BOOKSHELVES. Just load up your walls with floating shelves and stick some bookshelves underneath, and BOOM: organized chaos. I have like 8 themed bookshelves and 4 themed floating shelves, and it helps SO MUCH with keeping the floor clean and keeping my room looking cute. You could really benefit from trying it!! Trust me it's so fun organizing each shelf with its own little theme!!
I usually find body doubling videos to be ineffective, but this one is some sort of miracle. I had a number of chores to do, and this helped me get them done in a timely manner and even scrub my kitchen sink!! I'll definitely be coming back to this video. All my fellow struggling neurodivergent folks take care
I think that the biggest issue Garret is facing is not having enough storage. If he for example got a shelf for his bedroom where he'd display all of his action figures, then it's (a little bit) more likely that when he gets a new action figure, it'll go straight to its dedicated space rather than end up on the nightstand. A really easy way to store things in their cathegories is by buying one of those IKEA shelves with the squares, get the little boxes for them and have each box for a specific cathegory. Garret likes to keep things from his childhood, so one of the boxes could be for that. One for extra electrical stuff, etc. But as Garrett has a lot of things that he thinks are cool and worth a display, he definitely lacks shelves and space to display them on.
Garrett’s laugh burns brighter than that of a thousand suns. Combine that with unexpected visits from “snarky coffee/wine girl,” and the universe is in perfect balance.
Garrett, I deal with this exact same issue. Rather than ADHD preventing my cleaning, it's depression. Today I was able to fold clean laundry and put it into my drawers. Proud of you ❤❤❤
I actually want to thank you for these videos. They make me feel so much less alone in my ADHD. Today, my mom watched with me and it actually opened up a conversation where it helped her accept my diagnosis a lot more. ❤ Room's looking good. 👌🏼
My executive dysfunction's really been kicking me in the butt lately and seeing your room like that was not only SUPER validating, but I'm happy to say I have the motivation now to clean up my room while watching you lose your mind over your little guys. Thanks Garrett!
I struggle with laundry everywhere too but SPECIFICALLY my book collection and candle collection (bad combo). before i got a full tall bookshelf, i put my books on a three-tier cart (like the ones you put in your bathroom), on the floor, in a box, just so many books. and i can't get rid of them because they're like dear friends to me, i know i read them already but they're precious. i think i'll get another bookshelf in the future, my dream is to have a whole room dedicated to my personal library. anyway, my autism makes me behave like a dragon that needs to collect things. i'm getting interested in legos, it will be a problem. also unrelated but i would 10000% follow a garrett gaming channel or livestream, i love love video games too

The ADHD/autism to hoarding pipeline is so real and so hard to break free from. I’m proud of you!

Not even 10 seconds in and I'm already dying at you lunging 'The Professor' into hyperspace.
Garrett having to do a massive clean once a year is actually so relatable
"he's my favourite"
When I get overwhelmed, I'll write out 20 tasks, and roll a 20 sided dice.
The level of self-control it takes to walk away from a movie mid watch is seriously impressive.
So fun that Garrett loves us enough to use us as a parasocial body double! He'll be mine going ghost hunting this weekend 😂

Most iconic collab of the century would be Garrett and Marie Kondo
Garrett can I just say I’m so proud of you for posting so often this year !!
The idea of Garrett voice-acting has Regular Show vibes

The Garrett Cleaning My Home videos are like the Bobs Burgers Thanksgiving episodes.
