I used to almost never clean, and then all of a sudden I'd wake up one day and clean from morning until night and then fall into bed, and then not clean again until months later. I used to be depressed all the time, and the cleaning thing was like a little manic episode. I think I liked the dramatic results.

I am still not the best housekeeper, but I do some cleaning regularly, like vacuuming, and try to work on clutter regularly.
