WARNING IM GOING TO BE BLUNT HERE>>>>

I am handicapped. I wear braces and use crutches and I live in an appartment.

Appartments have fire codes they must live up to or the whole complex gets shut down and all tennets evicted. Unsanitary conditions is one thing that can and WILL get the appartment complex here shut down by the city government. It is because of these city ordinences and fire codes that this complex has inspections every 6 months.

I certainly would not want to be the blame for the city fire inspectors coming in and finding my home unsanitary because I like you posted here - don't pick up after myself when I miss the garbage can and leave my stuff laying around, and then the place getting shut down so that 204 families at the least are rendered homeless.

I have friends with OCD and they are all maticulous about be clean and sanitary. In fact they have panic attacks if everything is not in its place and everything is spic and span. (Ever see Monk thats OCD and what my friends go through)

How do my friends handle their OCD of dropping things - first they make sure they put the garbage in the garbage can. even if they have to cross the room and be riight next to the can. They also use rubber gloves, latex gloves and a pole grabber (a pole with a claw like end that can open and close to pick up things. sometimes they wear a rain coat and rain pants when cleaning so they do NOT get dirty.

Plain cardboard boxes make a home look unsanitary in itself. when I have to use a box in the living room I either cover it like a stand in a corner with a clean sheet or I buy some contact paper that will go with the room decor to cover the the box. Putting contact paper in it also makes the boxes washable with a damp cloth or dusting wand.

If you really want to remain there you are the one that must take the steps to keep the appartment up to the appartment standard laws and city ordinances because yes the managers can and do evict people around here for what you have posted here.And a judge will not accept OCD as a reason why you dont have to pay for the cleaning costs, painting the walls and new flooring that may have to be done from unsanitary conditions if the managers do evict you.
