I don't have OCD or OCD-like behaviors, but I can understand where those people are coming from when they have to start to clear some of the clutter out of the way. Just doing a little bit can be completely overwhelming and shut you down...the same happens to me when I try to overcome something related to my anxiety, or when I was in a depressive episode.
