As a reminder, modern standards of "cleanliness" for households were developed during a period when the wife in a family was expected to stay home and take care of the household full-time.
So if you are a single, or if you are part of a family where _both_ spouses work full time, and you just seem to catch up with the household chores: Don't blame yourself! This is perfectly normal, and people and media telling you otherwise are putting pressure on you which is wholly unjustified.
Sure, households _should_ be cleaned now and then, but having them remain clean _all_ the time is an impossible standard in today's world for anyone who cannot afford outside domestic aid.
