Cleaning is my favorite way to relax. I clear things out and get rid of the stuff I don't need. When the food pantry and the refrigerator are organized, I feel less stressed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
How do I cope with stress? I clean and organize.
I love cleaning, weird but true. It really relaxes me.
There are certain things that make me relax, like writing my journal. That's the only time that I'm relaxing. It's the only time I really get to examine myself.
Messy stuff irritates me. I don't like messiness. If you leave something around my house, I'll tell you to move it back, clean it up, throw it in the trash - don't matter, just get rid of it. I need stuff neat, organized. And once I start cleaning stuff, I don't stop until it's done. Otherwise I'm irritated all day.
We all need to relax more, but I don't find it easy.
I think it's important to relax in general. I don't try to save up my relaxing for one month period of the year; it's kind of a daily practice that I've tried to remain aware of.
I'm not a neat freak. I don't mind things being messy but I mind them being dirty. I just can't relax in a dirty environment. I like things organized.
I don't get stressed out.
On one day of the week, I relax - which is not true, I work furiously on other things. 'Relax' is not a word to me.
I don't relax. I sit down and contemplate all the energetic things I should do.
