dp you tend to go totaly nuts when you can`t find something.

like atm i can`t find the batterie cover for my calclator, i don`t actually need it the calculator works just fine wether i find it or not, but i can`t help myself. i have tured my rom upsidedown to find it and i stil can`t stop thinking about that useless thing.

Oh yes. If I can't find something I get suspicious and think someone has taken it from me. Also, I get scared that if it's not in my room, someone might accidentally do something to it or throw it out. Sometimes whatever I'm looking for is right in front of me and my mind just dosen't register it. One time when I was younger, I walked around the house looking for my teddy bear when my dad told me I was holding it in my arms!

If I misplace something...I get very stressed and have to find it right away. But the more stressed I get, the less likely I am to find it...so usually I bring one of my friends in to find it. One of my best friends now offers to help me look whenever she sees me tearing apart my room

Oh yeah same way here. When I lose the remote, I lose my mind. I also have trouble finding things mixed in with other stuff. At work, we have drawers filled with different wires, CAT5 and RG9, etc, and I can't sort through them to find the one piece I need unless it is a different color than the rest.

I can get very angry with myself and one time I do is when I lose things because I tell myself 'why am I so unorganised' even when I am usually very organised and it is not worth getting angry about. I work myself into a very bad state soemtimes. It scares me sometimes how angry I can get with myself about insignificant things.

I have a tendancy to get extremely caught up in things, if I start looking for something I will carry on doing so for a long time, getting very frustrated (I wouldn't be looking for a long time if I had found it :))

I am pretty good at finding things, so I get really upset when I can't find something...I become very self-deprecating..
