What is wrong with me!!

Honestly.. i knew that going on Celexa would hopefully sort out a few of my issues... i have Obsessive Personality Disorder and Stress/anxiety, so getting away from the computer which i'm addicted to was getting harder and harder, so my house was suffering.. god only knew when i last touched the hoover or did the dusting... sometimes i'd procrastinate about it for days, but couldn't make myself do it.. and i do mean that, i'd be sitting here arguing with myself and trying to persuade myself to go so something.. never worked.

Anyway... i've been on the pills for 5 weeks and things are looking up, i actually want to clean now, there is no arguing with myself, i just think.. i'm going to do that today, and do.. only i'm enjoying it that much i'm spotting things that need doing, and doing them.

So far today, in the last 5 hours I did..

The hoovering.. not just the carpet, but i got all the dustwebs and around the edges of the lounge and skirts with the tools.. i also hoovered up all the crumbs on the couch... and got the cobwebs in the bathroom (its downstairs off the lounge)

Tidied Toms toy box!

Cleaned the kitchen floor... which involved sweeping, then getting down on my hands and knees with the floor wipes and scrubbing . I also wiped down the bin, the cupboards and the cooker.. Washed up, cleaned and tidied the counter tops, the food basket and the windowsil

Tidied the lounge table, sorted through my paperwork basket, put all my important things in the folder where they should be... sorted through the pen box and threw away what didn't work.

Gone through the cupboard under the stairs and sorted out the mess that was just shoes.. and even separated off the ones that need to be thrown away and ones that need to go in the shoe box upstairs (wrong season for them)

Made some attempt to tidy the windowsil, but until i can get rid of the toys and clothes of Tomas's in it, its just going to look cluttered all the time.

I'm actually really proud of myself and feel like i've accomplished something.. although i must say i'm a little concerned about the fact that i'm still itching to do some more.. i keep thinking of other things and am actually trying to make myself sit here and chill for a little bit.

This is BIZARRE!
