Do you find that you get cranky if you're disorganized?

I've noticed this lately. I'm not as organized at work or at home as I need to be, and I get really cranky when things are messy and I can't find what I'm looking for with ease. I've realized that it affects my mood greatly, so I'm trying to get more organized so I can be happier in general.

 

Re: Do you find that you get cranky if you're disorganized?

  • Yes!  I also get really stressed out when I'm in a chaotic or messy environment, like a very crowded store.  I just have to get out of there!
  • Yes, if my to-do list is getting long, I start to get an upset stomach, and I don't sleep as well if I didn't tidy the house before bed.  I really like everything to be in its place, otherwise I find it hard to relax!

  • I absolutely feel like crap if the house or my office is messy.  I can't work unless it's clean, or relax at home.  DH is not like that at all, but we make it work.
  • If the bed isn't made, chances are its been a bad day. If the dishes aren't loaded..its been a shiiity day
  • Yes - very much so!

  • My desk at work is immaculate and I have had comments about it. It makes me work a lot easier but for some reason my house is always chaotic. It's only DH & I and our small yorkie so we don't have kids to clean up after but for some reason we can NEVER keep the house clean! Starting this week I am implementing a cleaning schedule so hopefully it will help.

  • yes! my boss is a hoarder, so just walking into my job stresses me out.  (i work at a very small business, with just 2 employees + the owner (who is the hoarder) and we all work in very close quarters with her sh!t everywhere!  i've always liked things to be mostly clean, but a little bit of mess/clutter wouldn't bother me, however since working there for the past 7 years, i HATE clutter and regularly purge a ton of stuff!

  • Absolutely.  I get really cranky...I need things in place in order to relax.  It drives DH nuts, but I just can't sit down until everything is done.

  • I get very cranky and anxious when I am not organized or or not as organized as I would like to be. I find the less clutter and more organized I am the better I feel.
