Making an enormous mess, I get overwhelmed easily.

Are there things you try to practice daily to live a more sustainable lifestyle?
My routine is to keep my home clutter-free. Having ADHD, and clutter seems to follow me around. When I come home, sometimes plop my belongings in certain places to deal with later them.
My routines help me to get back on track when I am distracted or exhausted. Like putting things away, washing the dishes, and doing extra cleaning.
Routines bring structure and consistency into my life which my mind craves. Doing my chores regularly has given me extra time to write and enjoy other hobbies too. I don’t have to feel guilty because my chores are done.

What do I mean “fixing my problems”?
When I have clearly stated why I can’t do something because of financial or health issues, then I receive unwanted advice on how to address the problem.
I understand that my life and my struggles are so different from able body people. Dealing with health and financial issues and fighting against a disease (rheumatoid arthritis) that wants to cripple me.
One reason why some people do this is because it is a coping mechanism. My life and their lives are radically different. Perhaps, they are comparing their lives to mine. There could be a lot of reasons why people are trying to fix my problems.
That I am a reminder that health is fragile, and that terrifies a lot of people.
I just want people to ask me if I need help, to respect my boundaries, and to ask questions. Also, realize that I am human with desires and needs, have a different perspective, and my life as meaning and value.
