Also, if you're like me, and were raised to scoff at people who needed to hire cleaning services as it is a "rich lazy" person thing, I urge you to absolutely let go of that. The last two years I've been incredibly burnt out both from work and from, idk, probably 39 years of undiagnosed autism. If you can pay for an accommodation like this to help give yourself some space to breathe, do it.

@hbuchel, your cleaner sounds fantastic! It's annoying indeed that we hold ourselves to higher standards for other people than for ourselves.
Cleaners are well worth the money, as they are an investment that pays itself back, and they are not just for rich people.
I haven't had one for over a year, and she's missed it (she didn't die; she just moved on to another profession).
