I’ve got task paralysis. Moved into an inherited house that needs a lot of work. I have options and idk what I’m going to do first
mud the bathroom ceiling
scrub the bedroom walls
scrub the dining room walls
pickup random debris in the backyard
I don’t want to do any of the things and that makes it hard.

So relatable! I also get paralysis when faced with an array of choices like that. If you are up for suggestions, I would scrub the bedroom walls first so that you can start creating a “nest” for yourself, aka a space where you feel safe and comfortable. I think the bedroom is the place to start. Plus, you will see the fruits of your labor every night and maybe feel a tiny twinge of dopamine flowing through your brain. Maybe.
