I always feel better when I clean. Maybe when I feel my anxiety and stress I should pick something to dep clean.

Then I'm weird too 😂

Cleaning is very therapeutic for me.

Theres something soothing about seeing a mess and clutter, and then seeing it all clean and fresh, it's likes it declutters my mind at the same time. When I'm stressed I clean or hoover, and it gives me the space away from people too, to let me process 🥰

Eeek tysm for this response. I am gonna add this, I need to get like sticky notes I can put ony door and be like feelings, do this or that lol. When I'm in the middle of intense emotions it's hard for me to pause and think about how to feel better. I ruminate a lot.

When I start having a panic attack or really bad anxiety I clean everything in sight and will wash dishes and counters and run all over the house.

I think it gives me something to focus on. Something I can control when everything else is going out of control.

You’d think that with all my anxiety issues that my house would be spotless, but it’s not! 😂

Wow okay so maybe I really am fine lol. Like Amanda said above, I also feel like when I clean it uncluttered my head and I have room for ideas or better problem solving skills. I guess there's worse things we could be doing to handle the feelings lol
