I deal with stress by cleaning, EVERYTHING. By organizing, making lists...I consider this a healthy way to deal with stress. Anyone else agree?

Yes I definatly agree It helps me relax and  my house gets cleaned LOL!

I'm So glad I'm not the only one that deals with stress this way!! 

I do the same thing...I have been told I have a problem! :)

I do the same! It's the best way I deal with stress & it feels good to be doing something productive!

Agreed! And when I'm mad at my husband~ my house is extra clean!!

Im the mother of 5................I definately need some de-stressing tips!  However I do work well under pressure and stress.  I guess it's a woman thing! lol

agree.  if I didn't do all the cleaning and organizing, I think I would've had a heart attack at age 18!

No, you aren't  the only one who has those! Those little voices can add to the stress. Cleaning does make you feel better though. Like you have accomplished something.

I hear you on the voices and the Type A personality! Its nice to know I am not alone!!! Sometimes I feel like I am crazy! lol I actually got a book (haven't read it yet) called Women Who Think Too Much! I find exercising does wonders and deep breathing! Can't wait to hear your advice!

I've made a business out of organizing and helping people destress by decreasing the clutter in their house. I love to see their stress melt away as we organize a closet or kids toys.
