Doing household chores is just one of the things I might need help with. It feels a bit weird to admit I need help with these things, almost as if I'm being betrayed by autism. But if it helps getting my life better organised it will be a positive thing.
I guess that this will probably be one of the biggest changes/challenges that the spectrum will bring me

I don't think that it is a weird thing to admit! When my oldest has to do things like cleaning up his toys...he can get overwhelmed very easily. What I do is get very specific with him..i.e.-first pick up anything that is red....when that is done we move to the next color or thing. I break each job down into the smallest amount of pieces-this way he is not so overwhelmed.
