[quote=Anonymous]I’d start going over more often and helping her clean up. Go frequently for short visits so you don’t overwhelm her and she becomes comfortable just being around people. She’s probably really embarrassed and also lacking motivation. Be gentle and non-judgmental. Don’t throw anything away other than obvious garbage, wash the dishes, vacuum, just the basics. Just a little each time, act like oh I love cleaning! Even if you hate it. If she’s not receptive that day then try taking the kids. Maybe go “puck out something nice for mama” aka a new dress or new body wash. Then take her for a nice spa day or hair cut. Ask her if she has clean clothes, you need to think basic living skills. Do her laundry while she showers if you have to. And get her outside in the sun. Once you get the basics covered then you can approach other stuff but if she’s really struggling something as simple as showering feels huge. [/quote]
