Affirmations for the Clutter Addict

Adapted from Clutter Junkie No More, by Barb Rogers (Conari Press, 2007).
The clutter addict is like a reverse obsessive-compulsive. Everything is out of place, and not so tidy. They are saying by their actions, “It’s my life, my stuff, and I can live any way I want to.” It’s one thing they do have control over–or at least they believe that. The clutter addict may also convince themselves that there’s not enough time in the day. It may seem incongruent, but being overwhelmed is a control issue.
Sound like you? Try to correct the behavior by using these affirmations for the clutter addict:
As long as the clutter addict is overwhelmed with things that need to be done, situations that need to be taken care of, other people they just can’t deal with, they have no time, energy, or inclination to look at themselves. Their total focus is looking over the wall of clutter, outside themselves. There is no room in their thoughts to see what is really going on inside.
