FULL STORY:  Need to declutter and get rid of some crap?  Try pretending someone crapped on it. Have you heard of the “Poop Rule” yet?

It went viral on TikTok after a woman with ADHD heard about it from a therapist.  She has trouble organizing, and it’s supposed to make it easier to let go of stuff you don’t really need.

The technique is simple:  Pick something up in your hands and pretend there’s poop on it.  Really try to visualize the feces.

Then ask yourself, “If there really was poop on this, would I wash it or throw it away?”

If it’s something you’d wash, then keep it.  If it’s something you wouldn’t, then throw it out . . . or donate it since it isn’t REALLY covered in poop.

It’s kind of like a grosser version of the “spark joy” trick from Marie Kondo.  (HuffPost)
