I have to get everything done?
If I want to sit down, relax and enjoy myself I can't unless I make sure everything I want done is done and I don't feel better unless I do. Example- cleaning something up, straightening things, etc. Sometimes I don't even know what I have to get done, but I have that anxious feeling so I look around to find what it is. Are there any ways to make me feel better so that I can sit down, relax and watch a movie and enjoy it?
It's not really work, it's just silly things around the house that other people probably don't worry about when they are going to sit down and watch a movie.

I get that way too. It helps me to make a list of everything that I want to get done that day, and then cross the items off as they get completed. I also set a time goal. If I don't have everything on the list done by a certain time, say 6 pm, then whatever is left I save for the next day.

you probably suffer from a minor case of obsessive compulsive disorder.. it nothing to fear, but tiny things like an item out of its place bugs the heck out of you... i personally can't ahve the volume set to an odd number, it has to be even. like 34 rather than 33. it just gets to me.

THAT USED TO BE REALLY HARD FOR ME ALSO. NOW THAT I HAVE AN SIGNIFICANT OTHER WHO IS A CLUTTER BUG I HAVE TO REALIZE THAT IT IS GOING TO STAY THAT WAY UNTIL THE NEXT DAY WHEN HE RETURNS TO WORK. IT WAS HARD FOR ME TO DEAL WITH AT FIRST BUT IT WORE ME OUT TO WORRY ABOUT IT! NOW, THOUGH I DEAL WITH IT. UNTIL THE NEXT DAY,THAN I FIX IT SO WE ARE ABLE TO DO IT ALL AGAIN EACH NIGHT.

i wish you and i could come to some kind of split... i look at things and procrastinate as long as i can! talk to your doctor and maybe he can prescribe you some kind of relaxer like xanax or something??
