Be honest with yourself. Hold onto the things that really mean a lot to you but ask yourself if you have clutter you don't need. Getting rid of some items can be therapeutic.

Tell them about the items that are important to you and ask them to see it from your point of view. How would they feel if you told them to get rid of a load of stuff just because you've had a diagnosis you didn't want?

Not the easiest thing to do but once we started everyone got involved
