About who needs care: I have fibromyalgia, autism, adhd, c-ptsd, GAD (generalized anxiety disorder), MDD (major depressive disorder), social and medical anxiety, MPD (mixed personality disorder), PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder), may have endometriosis, and have a couple injuries that cause me chronic pain. I am a twitch streamer who plays gta 5 (roleplays) and a bunch of cozy games. I stream to give people a safe space away from their daily woes and to inspire people to stay creative even in the face of trials. My biggest fixation is art; I have a degree in creative writing as well as 2D animation and am currently struggling with drawing bc of severe burnout from lack of accessibility when I was in college. I also enjoy learning about new things so I'm open to conversation about lots of things! Ideal day would start with me waking up around 9-10am and getting a couple chores done after breakfast. Spend some time after chores, preferably around 1-2pm, creating. Between 3-4pm I will start stream and spent the rest of the afternoon doing that. On days I dont stream, I would like to do self care and chores until 2-3pm and then at 3 would like to start editing videos or creating. Some parts of the day will be spent resting as I do need a good 1-2 hr lay down to help regulate my nervous system. I like to take Sundays off from doing anything except resting bc I need that one day of full on rest. As it is now, I am currently the only caregiver to my elderly mother (75yrs) who has needs similar to my own, but is actually the bread winner of the house bc she teaches remotely. Im severely struggling managing taking care of a house on top of also trying to make my creative burnout go away so I can start pulling some more financial weight for the both of us. Companionship would do us wonders (especially mom), but what we really need is someone to help with household chores. She cant keep up house due to pain and age, and with all my own issues I also cant keep up a house as well. Its kind of embarrassing bc we also struggle with a bit of a hoarder problem, but if I could have some help nipping that in the bud it would be a lot better for us I think. I dont like to admit it, especially since Im so young, it sometimes you just have to accept that you cant do it all and ask for mercy and help from someone else. About the care needs: I would like someone who doesnt mind helping with dishes (we have a dishwasher!), bathroom upkeep (cleaning the tub and toilet particularly), sweeping and vacuuming, and generally doesnt mind working with us on how we like to organize. I do acknowledge we have a tendency to hoard stuff, but were trying to cut that down by organizing our house and rearranging stuff. Definitely would like to have someone who can help us move furniture as we reorganize, but that wont be too often. No need to understand streaming or roleplay, but I would like it if they wouldn't mind listening. It takes a bit for me to open up but I can talk for ages if they get me going. Mom actually needs companionship more than I do. She's a beader; she makes beaded jewelry and teaches other older women to do the same. She does get out some with her friends, but it would be wonderful to have someone to tell her projects and show her pieces to. We also could use someone who is ok with being asked to drive places. Mom and I can both drive but shes starting to struggle with directions/self confidence a
