I get headaches and I can't think straight until everything in my apartment is cleaned up immaculately. I can't stand dirty people, and I find myself constantly rushing to clean up after other peoples messes. I also get very angry while things are dirty and my entire mood changes until I reorganize and put things back where they are supposed to go. Would this be considered obsessive compulsive or another psychological disorder?

Sounds like OCD if its a problem you should ask your doctor about it and see if you could get a referral to see someone. Most types of OCD like this can be treated with medication and some conditioning therapy that will reduce the need for medication.

My sis is like that. Last weekend we were on holiday and she was insisting to clean up the hotel room before leaving every morning

You should come to my school. My room at college is a wreck. I think you probably have OCD

Makes me thing about Emma on Glee. Anyhoo! I'm like that too, and I think it's normal not to like when your place's not clean: indeed who would wish to wake up in a very messy room? This obsession should be seen as a quality: that means you are organized and this is really good. But then that's only my opinion! :)

to be honest this sounds worse than OCD, definitely go see a psychiatrist.
