"How to Keep House While Drowning: A Gentle Approach to Cleaning and Organizing" by KC Davis LPC is a compassionate, non-shaming guide to managing housework, designed especially for people who feel overwhelmed or are neurodivergent. The book reframes housekeeping as "care tasks" rather than chores, emphasizing care for both your space and yourself without guilt or pressure.

Key points from the book are:

Focus on setting up your home to work for you and meet your needs for health, safety, comfort, and happiness.

Manage cleaning tasks in small, staggered steps to avoid procrastination and reduce stress.

Permit yourself rest and kindness, even when housework is unfinished.

Remove shame from housekeeping by understanding it as functional care, not a reflection of personal worth.

The approach is flexible and encourages readers to adapt techniques to what works best for their life and circumstances, focusing on progress rather than perfection.

Written with neurodivergent people in mind, the book uses accessible language and layout to make the advice clear and applicable.

The author, a licensed counselor who has personal experience with ADHD and post-natal depression, blends professional insight with practical strategies.
