It makes me feel really irritated and angry.
Things like a my mum or MIL tidying up when they babysit,
DH rearranging things in my wardrobe when he puts laundry away.
We moved recently and I found it incredibly hard to cope with. I cried for days and was withdrawn for a few weeks according to DH.
We've got builders starting work next week and I'm feeling really tense about the invasion of my space.
I know once I've calmed down I've been irrational but at the time I just feel such rage about it.

You obviously have anxiety/OCD issues. I recommend going to a counsellor to sort this out. I’d be thrilled if someone tidied up my closet!

If anyone rearranged my wardrobe there's be hell to pay!

I also didn't like moving. Nothing to do with OCD or anxiety. It's just that your space needs to feel yours

I am with you Grin
the guys at work are scared to come close to my desk because they know there will be hell to pay if someone touches one of my pens. It didn't take long to train them.

I'm with @hashtags, it sounds like you may have borderline OCD or anxiety issues. And there's nothing wrong with that. Counselling or CBT may help you with coping strategies so that things don't upset you as much and help you learn to deal with things better
