YOu could have OCD qualities of perfection so severely that it parallyzes you from actually cleaning or decluttering. Because you have to have everything perfect. It is a true condition. If you are not diagnosed. You might want to look into this. My mom exhibits these same qualities. She can still function and people can still come over but she is very close to the edge. She had childhood issues and trauma that these tendencies came through.mother goosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06514668932799794084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8636086797024670086.post-18920443857814821312007-11-11T23:03:00.000-07:002007-11-11T23:03:00.000-07:00No Chrys, you ARE right. I know, I was diagnosed ...No Chrys, you ARE right. I know, I was diagnosed with OCD (which as MESSY as I am seems FUNNY to my mom. Like "shouldn't you be CLEANER then? But it's more like, I can't be clean ENOUGH so why try? or something. I dunno.) but it is just a post script on the end of my Depression and all the rest of my messed-up-edness. So who cares? It's like, the extra stuff... stuff I can't do anything about. Or if I can, it is buried in everything else. If that makes sense. Maybe after I get more under control I can address that too. For now I just feel...
