Are you comfortable with mess or chaos, and an absence of organized systems or rituals?

[Lliam]

If I don't put things where they belong, I lose them. I like to be able to find things without looking.
I organize my desk a certain way.
I perfect things I do every day so that they are maximally efficient and I can do them without thinking.

I an definitely not OCPD

It is more like:
Conscientiousness: A core personality trait from the Big Five model. It describes people who are orderly, disciplined, efficient, and deliberate planners.
Routine-Seeking: A behavioral tendency to create predictable daily patterns to reduce mistakes and mental fatigue.

My wife is much the opposite. She operates kind of randomly.

How 'bout you?

Well, I've never lost my keys during my stay on this planet - which should tell you something about the way that I am.

No, I am not comfortable with mess or chaos at all. But that started at a very young age with me.

When I was working for an environmental engineering company in the Biotechnology laboratory, I was the secretary for the entire lab.

I developed a system for my department that if something were ever to happen to me, they would still be able to function and find everything they needed. I taught my system to them and it was very simplistic. They were able to function when I was very sick and missed work for 3 weeks. They appreciated it.

Remember the old saying "There's a place for everything and everything has a place"? That's how I do things.

Excellent.

first of all, I do have a bit of mild OCD fixations, grew up with that, lmao...

so, for most things I definitely prefer to be organized, neat and to just have things "work well" that's for sure

however... since I grew up battling and fighting my OCD tendencies, I also can make exceptions so, in one way or another I really went into situations in which organized isn't a thing and chaos is more of the norm... so, I am used to work under a lot pressure, which and I do feel quite comfortable in that kind of environment... I can my ways through the chaos and the mess and do it very well... I've also managed to work with, what, some people like to call "organized chaos" in which all seems to be out of place and order but I still know exactly where in the mess, it all is... or should be, anyway

I don't like living in constant chaos, but I can manage a little mess, especially when things get hectic. Having everything so well-organized that I know where everything is and don't have to spend time searching for it is calming. Having said that, I don't always need everything to be spotless. I don't mind living in a messy place, and sometimes that's just part of being human. I find that having things reasonably organized without getting fixated on maintaining perfection is the sweet spot.

[Lliam]

I agree.

[midnightmoon05]

Things are organized but not OCD.
the rest… the cleaning ladies will do the rest.
my kids are both ocd. They have to make their beds daily. All the clothes put away neatly. I don’t tell them.
they cook and clean the kitchen on their own when they make food for themselves or for the family. Sinks has to be cleaned with no dishes. That’s just how we are.
no outside shoes in the house… things like that.

With having two young boisterous children that is a feat of impossibility!

However, things are very slowly improving as they get older.

I can tolerate a controlled amount of chaos. I keep a junk drawer where it is completely disorganized. I have to root through it periodically and throw some stuff away.

[browsingthroughthe]
