Some things just go together. Peanut butter & chocolate, mac & cheese, and perfectionism & anxiety. 😉

You feel uneasy when things are out of order. It drives you crazy when people don’t follow rules. It’s hard to relax when the house is a mess. You have really high expectations for yourself and others.
I get it because I’ve been there too.
