    Straight up, the first month of taking my med I vacuumed more than I had in the previous 4 years.

    Sounds insane at first but let me clarify. It’s because I vacuumed 5 times. Once for each Saturday that month.

    That first trip around my apartment with the vacuum sucked a lot.

      My partner and I got diagnosed. Once I got my meds I was actually able to clean the house. It feels amazing to keep up with chores and not live in filth. It always felt like I had to force myself to continue but I’m actually having fun and feeling proud of myself when I complete tasks.

      Man, I go barefoot inside and the second I feel some dirt or sand or something on the floor I break out the vacuum. I can’t imagine going a whole week.

      I have long hair, its VERY noticeable when I vacuum. I own a seam ripper just to cut the hair out of the spinny brush thing i dont know or remember the name of.

        If I can shill for a second, we’ve got a Kenmore with a blade that automatically cuts tangled up hair while the vacuum is running and it’s fucking incredible. No straining the motor, no hot dusty hair stank, no wrestling with the vacuum on the floor. It’s intended for houses with pets, but it works on human hair just as well.
