I suspect that many of our living rooms look alike 
“Try harder” might not do it – even with the meds. The stuff that has accumulated didn’t appear overnight, it crept in gradually, so you may need to be gentle with yourself and approach it differently. We got into the habit of ignoring stuff. Eventually after months of tripping over stuff and having nowhere to put new stuff, I blew my stack for the umpteenth time and we slowly started to work out a plan to get it done.
I posted about this elsewhere, but basically it was like this:
– We set a firm deadline (done by Dec 23rd at midnight) – that gave us a few days
– We got real about how much we could do in that amount of time – only ONE room, not two
– We divided up the tasks by person and by what that person would be best at doing, so they’d be better motivated to do it
– We agreed to stay off the computer and not do anything else until we’d finished a substantial portion of it (it took several days)
– We decided to work on it when our meds were at their peak, rather than later in the day when they’d worn off (sounds like you are figuring this part out)
– I started with the small stuff, wanted to clean along the way, but my husband forced me to wait until the end to clean, he was right, it’s easier to clean when there’s no clutter (or less)
– Celebrate your progress, even if it’s only a small amount OR celebrate your effort, even if you seemingly failed (I like celebrating)
I would try emailing the NP and see. You might also see if there’s a toll-free health number in your area, we can call TeleHealth in Ontario, not sure what they would say about my stimulant meds, but you might get some general advice about it, then you could follow up with your GP.
